OPERATION RECORD // AFTER ACTION REPORT

Operation Summary

In which we have a two day pass in Hue, and so does the chelt uprising. Stealth is optional.
We had a gunfight in a market. And a hospital. And a factory. And a suburb. And a consulate. It was a jolly wizard time and we were able to recover the crucial intel command had secreted in a variety of locations around the city like veritable ghosts, flirting from one shadow to another. It is doubtful that the Chelt even knew were were there.
