Part one- The convoy of the 3 humvee's with the 12 soldiers left camp Bravo and are traveling a back road that cuts through the montains to get to camp Delta, which is 50 miles east of camp Bravo. At 4:30pm, 20 miles west of camp Bravo the convoy gets hit with a road side bomb destroying the first two humvee's. In the first Humvee, the driver and front pasenger get killed(infantry). The engineer and another infantry soldier get badly injured enough to not make them mobile. In the secound humvee, Two infantry soldiers get minor wounds, but are still mobile, the other two are fine. The medic and the other three infantry soldiers in the third humvee are fine.
The mountains block radio contact to either base until you are only 5 miles away from them. 10 miles to the south is a small village(pop 8000) were most residents are hostile towards you. The Intel claims there is a 10-20 man enemy unit on foot with ak47s the patrols the village every 2 hours. The residents in the village have radios that could reach the base and food. The road were the convoy was hit is patroled by a 10-20 man enemy unit with trucks and ak47s that go up and down the road at 30mph.
Time- Day 4:30pm
Location- Iraq desert between mountain range
Conditions- Sunny, temp 80, wind 40mph north
Personal- 12 soldiers total, 1 medic, 1 engineer, 10 infantry
Equipment- 3 humvee's, 2 are damaged, every soldier has one water jug,flare,basic uniform, and 25 mile cb radio, infantry has M4 with 2 extra clips, medic has med pac, engineer has basic tools to disarm explosives.
This is Team Alpha. Three soldiers and the engineer will go ahead several miles, taking the last humvee, going as quickly as possible, and taking the radio with them. The engineer and a soldier will be scouts, searching for and disarming all explosives along the road. Their duty will be to get within radio range and contact HQ, giving a concise sitrep and requesting backup ASAP. Afterwards, they will return back via the same route, since that's already been cleared, this time all of them are riding in the Humvee. Any tangos encounterd on the way back will be killed, captured, or otherwise incapacitated. They will radio the soldiers at the combat zone during the ride back, informing them of the incoming help and the ETA. When they reach the combat zone, they will do the same thing as the others.
This team is Team Bravo. Meanwhile, back at the combat zone, the men will take cover in the destroyed humvees, returning fire cautiously and in moderation. The medic will attempt to heal the badly injured soldiers, making them fit to fight again, under cover fire from the healthy soldiers. For the wounded for whom this tactic does not work, they will go to a safe spot and try to prevent bleeding to save their own lives. All soldiers will drink water and eat food when necessary. At night, if this stretches on that far, they will post two sentries, taking rotations for watches, and patrolling on foot for the duration of their watch to prevent sleeping on duty. If an enemy comes, they will awake the rest of the soldiers and the enemy will be killed.
At the approximate ETA of the help coming, the soldiers will use their flare, indicating their exact position so that the help will be able to locate them.
The reinforcements are Team Charlie. When the help arrives, the wounded soldiers will be taken away from the combat area, while the rest will do the following: the original defenders will get some rest, while the reinforcements guard the camp. Then, half the group(with equal parts Bravo, Alpha, and Charlie, so it's even) will guard the camp, while an offensive team will go to the enemy ambush site. Offense is Zulu, Defense is November. Zulu will split into three parts, two will attack the separate flanks, while the first will attack in the front.
