Commander John Brackmen
7 AM
Washington D.C, USA
Alliance Military command building
Commander John Brackmen had just been promoted to commander for his last mission. He held an Alliance supply depot from Rebel and Raider combined assault. The skirmishes have been starting to wear down the Alliance; the largest of the four factions. Europe was under Alliance control, but war is starting between the rebel and raider combined forces and the Alliance and Empire. The Empire usually didn’t care too much about the rebels or raiders till an important supply lane was taken by the rebels. The Empire was now calling on the Alliance to help them out. John didn’t trust the Empire. They were under the control of a dictator that called himself an emperor. Hundreds of Imperial citizens of the empire have been killed in the armed forces. Each day new recruits joined their military and only half of them would live to see their first year in the military or return alive.
John Brackmen was a commando and leader of Shadow Company an elite group of commandos given the best training and equipment and even some experimental gear as well. Shadow Company has only 50 people and they work in teams of 4. But John Brackmen had requested a soldier by the name of James Scaletta he had just been in the Alliance military for only 3 years, but so far his record has been good. But it was a request and Scaletta could decline the request if he wanted to.
John entered the room of the building where he was told to report to for a briefing on the mission for helping the empire get their supply lane back The supply line has been blockaded by Rebel and Raider forces the city is Vladivostok. General Grimson, a respected Alliance General that has served on the front lines during the forming of the Alliance. He motioned for Brackmen to sit down in a chair. The room smelled of smoke and you could see Grimson had a cigar in his hand. The smoke filled the room. John almost was chocking on the smoke but managed to keep it under control. He hated the smell of cigars; it seemed to get him a headache if he inhaled too much of the smoke.“Commander Brackmen, as you know, we have been requested by the Empire to help them reclaim an important supply chain to them. This mission will have Shadow Company and a possible Imperial regiment there to assist you as well. That will be all Commander, get your men ready,” said Grimson.
“Sir yes sir!” Exclaimed John as he did a salute and left the room. He got on his com link to Shadow Company’s base and told them, “Get the company ready to move out, the supply lane is at Vladivostok the rebels and raiders have blockaded the harbor. I want to leave in two hours.” Then he ended the call and left the building to get into his car and head back to the base.
