Seek and destroy a SAM site to the west of Dak Pek SF camp. Multiple launchers and a pair or radars to be found and denied to the enemy.
Tasked with finding an eliminating a significant SAM site, Endgame Red headed east from Dak Pak SF Camp towards to town of Phuoc My. Commanded by Lt Pointer the squad moved SW along the road to Dak Ra, then turned off road to the NW to close on the target area. A chance encounter with Chelt forces led to the loss of one BlueFor jeep, and the complete distruction two hostile vehicles and their crews. Upon moving out from that contact location, a company strength infantry group was encountered at danger close range. Endgame Red used all options at their disposal to eliminate this force, before coming under long ranged fire from a hostile fortified position. Attempts were made to determine if it could be discouraged by friendly artillary fire, but it was calculated to be out of range.
Moving west the squad broke line of sight with the fortified position and moved through the jungle towards an overwatch location, from where they hoped to be able to survey the surrounding high ground. Upon close approach to the hilltop it became apparent that it was occupied by a hostile garrison with vehicular support. A barrage of small arms fire was put down to pin the enemy in their positions while mortar fire was adjusted onto the hilltop. This artillary barrage proved exceptionally deadly, and all hostiles were eliminated without further risk to the marines.
From this point the squad continued to the north west until a heavily fortified hillside was located and assaulted with great courage. The defenders, equiped with everything from small arms to heavy armour, made a stubborn stand, but both of their radars were quickly eliminated, allowing Endgame Red to take out the individual SAM launchers. Hostile reenforcements, and a continued barrage from the fortified position they'd identifed earlier, kept the marines busy until all launchers were confirmed destroyed and the squad exfilled by helo.
