DEPARTMENT OF CONTRACT MANAGEMENT
Hello, (INSERT CONTRACTOR NAME)Samael Corp wishes that this letter finds you well and hale at the present moment. The purpose of this correspondence is to notify you of your selection to participate in Samael Corp's newest security contract. As with all international contracts, the company shall furnish your room and board, transportation, and any other expenditures incurred as part of the contract. The contract is a six-month commitment of a security contingent to the Almodavar National Park in Peru.
Almodavar National Park holds over twenty-thousand acres of government-protected Amazonian rain forest. Thousands of species of flora and fauna call Almodavar their home, as do the two indigenous tribes that have resided in this forest for centuries. The government administers the park as a protected reserve on a number of levels; cultural, environment, and historical, to name a few. The park and the adjoining tributaries were spared from civilized contact on up until the 1960s. Since then, Almodavar is under the constant threat of illegal encroachment from illegal miners and loggers, drug cartels, and corrupt government officials - to name a few. It's getting bad enough that the occasional arrival of an army battalion does nothing to deter them. That's where we come in. A rotating, permanent security presence in the area.
As of the present - June 2019 - the Peruvian government has contracted Samael Corp's services in rectifying the deteriorating security situation, with Samael providing a small team of experienced contractors to address the issues in Alhambra. A preliminary intelligence report is available, compiled by our own in-house intelligence analysts and those of the Peruvian government. No less than five illegal logging operations are operating persistently and pervasively throughout Almodavar. Criminal in nature, these loggers are no strangers to violence. Sixteen individuals from the Yahari and Megasa tribes, four aid workers and one Peruvian police officer have met violent deaths at the hands of these loggers, in this year alone. At other times, loggers have kidnapped native tribespeople and aid workers, holding them for ransom or, especially in the case of tribeswomen, selling them off to human traffickers. Thirty acres of rain forest in the northeast is already deforested through their activities, and the jeep trails that cross around much of the park transform into bonafide dirt roads for the ease of moving large forestry equipment.
The Sol Azul drug cartel is another violent actor within the confines of the park. Through their many drug labs and farms scattered in the Peruvian and Brazilian jungles, this once unknown group is rapidly ascending to be the second-largest supplier and producer of cocaine and heroin in the continent. They have been designated as a terrorist group by the United States, as well as by almost every country in South America, for carrying out brazen planned engagements against authorities and using car bombs as a method of terrorizing anyone with a voice to speak against them. While the logging gangs tend to encroach upon areas of the park, Sol Azul has - for the most part - avoided a direct confrontation with the park authorities, aid workers, and native tribes.
Once the operation has been launched, your team will be stationed at the main ranger compound in the park, with an area of operations that covers the entirety of Almodavar. You will operate at the discretion of your team leader, who will in turn be coordinating with friendly assets on the ground in order to commence missions that are beneficial to the overall security situation. Expect to conduct vehicle and foot patrols across the jungle landscape, in addition to other tasks such as reconnaissance, force protection, and hostage rescue.
As per our SOP for deployments, you will be required to complete the following form, which consists of a basic biographical survey and a requisition list so that you may list the equipment that you will bring with you to Almodavar. Resupply missions will be commenced at the direction of the Team Leader. At 0500 Eastern Standard, on the twenty-first of June, you will be given forty-eight hours to arrive at the staging compound in Iquitos; from there, you will take a helicopter and boat convoy to the ranger compound in Almodavar. Equipment, food, water, munitions, lodgings, and vehicles have been purchased and will be on site once you arrive. From there
We wish you the best of luck.
Signed,
Flora Guillames
