I sigh. "Whatever."


I let out a grunt of disappointment at the mans reply, frowning as I do so before reattaching the barrel of the m60 to the rest of the gun.

"Well ladies," Dan gets up, stretching. "I'm going to hit the barracks, I'm tired. Unlike you some of you I didn't get any sleep, unlike Henry over here. I you wake me up before it's time to deploy to Nugen street or whatever, I'll shoot you."

"Shoot at me and I'll shoot back." Tyrone replied, lightly chuckling, his focus still fixed on his gun as he speaks.

"Lighten up bud." I pat him on the shoulder and head to my bunk

13.00 Hours
In 35 minutes, the squadron will be moving out toward Nyugen street to watch over a POW swap.

Dan ties his boots up and makes the bed in his bunk. He grabs his rifle. He sees Alex isn't in his bunk. "Must be in the mess hall." he grumbled.
He walks out and is stopped by Sargeant Baker. "Hey Sarg' Baker, what up?" He responds immediately, "The sky you forgetwit." in a grumble. "Yes sir... jackass." He walks out and see the rest of the squad sitting on some old plastic ammo crates. He makes his over and props up one of the broken toys around and sits.


I turn dials on my radio. The distinct sound of tuning and radio waves and stuff are audible throughout the group.

I rub my eyes. "I didn't get much sleep last night. Oh well. So how is everyone this fine morning?"

"It's hot, moist, and those bastards at the radio station haven't played any of the songs I've recommended them. Sons of bitches." He kicks the a empty can of beans and sighs.
"God damn I hate it here. God damn draft, I hope that stuff it cut off, no soldier deserves to be in this climate,"
"In ten minutes we have to load up, well ladies, grab your sacks it's going to be a long week."

"In ten minutes we have to load up, well ladies, grab your sacks it's going to be a long week."
I grab my sack containing all my stuff. I then take my M1911 and holster it. After that, I gotta grab my main rifle and magazines. After I do all that, I stand up. "Ready."

"Ah, stuff."  Henry says, grabbing his bag and slinging it over his back.  "Man I wish this M16 wasn't so damn heavy."

I sling the radio over my shoulders and pick up my rifle, "Quit your whinin'"

Sergeant Baker: "All right you dumbasses, load up onto the truck, I want to get this trade-off over with."
"Yes Sarg' Baker, how do I get in the truck, can you teach me?
Sergeant Baker smacks Dan in the back of the head. "You yap off at the mouth one more time to me, I will personally bury you in a loving pit. Get in the truck god damn it."

im just going to assume you mean the whole squad so

I throw my bag into the truck and I hop in.

Henry climbs into the back of the truck, resting the stock of his M16 between his feet and resting his helmet against the hand guard.
