HQ Squad – With most of your team off tending to the wounded, you hunker down and wait for Squad 2 to sweep by. You attach to their group and begin to sweep the jungle with them. While some of them don't appreciate having to be so close to an officer, most seem appreciative that there's another set of eyes looking for traps.
1st Squad – Not wanting to risk further injury to yourself, you play it safe and let 3rd Squad do most of the heavy point and scout duty as they search the village. Your men seem to appreciate not having to do the dangerous stuff.
2nd Squad – After seeing off the wounded you and your squad push forward slowly through the dense woods. As you approach the position where the rebels were firing from, you can't seem to find any bodies or weapons nearby. If you did in fact hit anyone they must have taken them with you. As you push forward, you don't find anything out of the ordinary in the shelled ruins of Alpha, except for the gunned down body of a civilian in the middle of the road.
Melta Gunner Ezekiel – You're quickly loaded onto the Valkyrie and whisked off the safety. Thanks to the prompt medical treatment from the medtecs on board your wounds should be all healed up by next month
3rd Squad – With 1st Squad generously watching your backs, you and your team elect to move forward and search Bravo. You don't find any more rebels and all the villagers seem to have fled, but you do find a few more crude booby traps in the tree line as well as over a dozen guns of varying makes and quality. Seems like who ever made it out alive dropped their guns to blend in with the local populace.
Weapons Squad – You decide to move ahead with 3rd Squad and search the village. One of the Stubber gunners notices a small nest in the trees that was most likely used by the sniper with poor aim. It seems empty now, whoever occupied it having fled having missed so many shots.
FO Group – Having wrapped up the successful fire mission now that birds were in the airspace, you and your radioman sit back and enough a well-deserved break as the rest of the platoon pushes forward
Raven 1 – Your medtec informs you that all 5 wounded are accounted for. You lift off easily and again, spot no combatants in the area as you ascend. You fly back to base to unload the injured before returning for the bodies.
With Alpha Bravo clear, the rest of your platoon pushes forward to complete the rest of their road patrol, finding it quite uneventful compared to the events surrounding the village. You've secured a vital road for the IG war effort to retake this hellhole of a planet!

Debrief:
Command is pleased that 1st Platoon under the leadership of Lt. Lemartes Arnam was able to respond decisively against a rebel ambush in an area that was not suspected of harbouring strong enemy resistance. The abaility to confirm at minimum 18 enemy combatants killed is strong evidence of the ability to repel enemy attacks under pressure. That being said HQ is also of the opinion that too many friendly casualties were caused by enemy traps. The Lieutenant would do better in the future ensuring that his squad advances more carefully in areas where traps are suspected.
Command is also disappointed that the road was not entirely cleared of landmines. As this was the main objective of your sweep HQ finds it puzzling that more resources were not dedicated to detection along the roadside. Advancement of supplies was delayed as the lead convoy truck going down the road struck one of the mines and was disabled, killing the driver. While command is grateful that you were able to cause so many casualties to the rebels, HQ must remind the platoon to always attempt to complete main objectives to the best of their abilities.
While it is unfortunate that so much damage was caused to the village, given the nature and ferocity of the attack, HQ feels that the use of Basilisk assets was justified in this circumstance. It is also of the opinion that civilian casualties suffered in the area were also of an acceptable nature given the amount of hostile force present.
Go get some rest and we'll get some replacements for your Platoon for the next big op.
