OPERATION HURDLE UNCLE (2022-09-23): Small team operation to first sweep and clear the bombed out area of Saigon under cover of darkness, followed by patrol of the local docks and village, with a tunnel clearance.
OPERATION MAJOR CELEBRITY (2022-12-30): Begin clearing and sweeping the area for not-Liberation of CheltNam. They have a FLAMETHROWER. Wait. Scratch that. KENT has a FLAMETHROWER.
OPERATION WESTERN ENTREPRENEUR (2023-01-06): Take a vehicle to the smugglers' camp, and clear the command post on the way, then move out to the west to raid more supplies and intel. And then hit that command post AGAIN on the way back.
OPERATION CONSTANT TIMBER (2023-01-15): Southern patrol route through the AO, with several close calls with a lot of fiery doom and running around like morons trying to find any surviving supplies.
OPERATION ARDENT RIPPLE (2024-01-05): Endgame Red is assigned as the SANDY ground team to conduct Combat Search And Rescue for the Air Force in conjunction with Jolly Green Giants, Broncos and Skyraider "Spud" strike aircraft. Two CSAR missions completed; a pilot recovered from just north of Da Krong, and a dual-crew flight from the marshes of the Mekong Delta. All for only a relatively modest expenditure of US aircraft.
OPERATION SUBSTANCE MELON (2024-08-04): 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.
South Vietnam Gallantry Cross Unit Citation: AWARDED South Vietnam Gallantry Cross Unit Citation for their effective and vital contributions to the suppression of insolent students during the Hue Uprising as part of Operation Substance Melon.
