Operation Trivial Bandolier

Campaign: ChelteNam · Fri 15 Mar 2024

OPERATION RECORD // AFTER ACTION REPORT

Operation Summary

Endgame Red was deployed to assault the town of Kok, which had been strengthened and reinforced such that it was once again that Cheltenamese Kok was a danger to all passers by, spreading a miasma of zider into the surrounding regions.

The town itself was a feint to draw in attackers, but despite the pre-placed defences, Endgame Red managed to take all of Kok despite discomfort and some bloody situations. Realising that in truth the size of Kok was just a myth, the squad redeployed north to find the zider store.

Despite some violations / desecrations of several religious sites, the storage dump was found and destroyed, although this provoked a forest fire which then obliterated the surrounding area including a big fiery Kok.

Realising that they had found intel for the location of the district central distribution point, this was also assaulted and destroyed.

Commendations

during the assault on Kok, I was in the process of trying to locate PFC Pyro who we had lost contact with. upon finding him from what I could tell from the bodies scattered around him he had been involved in a furious and brutal close-range engagement with a squad Chelt numbering between 6-10 and while he was rendered unconscious and grievously wounded from this assault. he did seem to manage to prevent their movement which if left unchecked would have left them in a position to flank and likely overwhelm the medical station that was dealing with a critical mass casualty situation.

On the spot and amazing Vehicle kill, exactly when needed.

During the assault on Kok, Blunderbuss neutralised a key vehicle that was suppressing several of the squad, retrieved a downed teammate whilst under sustained fire and brought her back to the triage point before immediately rejoining the fire fight.
