On the March - Zero Hour

[blazerblock2]

Boutros nods, "Oooooooooooh." he says, pulling an AK magazine out of his ammunition dump pouch and pulling the bolt back, chambering a round.  He lets it dangle by the sling, removing his pistol from its holster, and taking a pistol magazine from the same pouch he got the AK mag, sliding it into the magwel and pulling the slide back.  He slips it back into his holster, and nods, checking on his chute and making sure his backpack is secured to his back tightly.  He tightens the straps on his helmet.  He smiles, his teeth slightly yellowed and rotten, nodding and giving a thumbs up to Voloshyn.

[SWAT One]

For some reason, I think of this guy when I think of Boutros:

[Mikoyan]

A man with a Rosyian flight suit comes down the stairs, oxygen mask on. He nods at Sergeant Voloshyn. Voloshyn pulls his own mask over his face. He takes a couple of breaths to make sure it was flowing. "Let's lock and load!"

I hear Sergeant Voloshyn say lock and load and I pull the bolt back on my assault rifle. I pull my mask over my face and take a couple of breathes, adjusting my chute as I do so. "Ready sir!"

[SWAT One]

William pulls out his massive PI-39 from a back holster and slides a very large and unusual magazine into it.  He also loads his two PI-23s and slides an oxygen mask over his face.  He pauses to check if it is working.  He covers his ginger hair with a large helmet and puts on a parachute pack.  He nods to Voloshyn and receives a nod back.

[blazerblock2]

oxygen masks?  altitude must be high as fuq.  Also is this a HALO drop, and are we jumping from a bay door or passenger door?
Boutros sees everyone putting masks over their faces, and takes out his gas mask, comparing it to everyone else's and roostering his head to the side and furrowing his brow.  He looks to the Svernian man for an explanation.

William explains to Boutros.

He's Svernian.

[blazerblock2]

Boutros nods, but then wonders why he doesn't have one.  He puts his mask back in his bag, and looks at his seat, which is where the mask sat.  He grabbed it quickly, putting it on and taking a few deep breaths to make sure the airway was clear.  He nodded, giving Voloshyn the "okay" sign with his right hand.  He tucks the small oxygen tank into the side of his plate carrier.

[Gojira]

so am i in?
if so then
I pull my mask over my face, and check to make sure it works. I give the Rossiyan an a-ok symbol and tuck the oxygen tank in my plate carrier (because i'm clueless right now, i'll learn as we go, ok?) I load my rifle and pistol, tucking my pistol in its holster, and check my chute.

[Mikoyan]

Voloshyn nods to the loadmaster. All of a sudden, a red light turns on, illuminating the whole cargo bay. The cargo ramp doors slowly begin to open. "Everyone double check your chutes!"

[blazerblock2]

Boutros double checks his parakeet parachute.

[mlockha]

Boutros double checks his parakeet parachute.

I do the same.

[Gojira]

I double check my chute and stand up.
