VCB Game 23-March-08 E-mail

After a quiet month for VCB, and a busy month for all it's members, we finally got back into the swing of things with a cracking mission by Messiah last night. 1 Section, 2 Section and an FSG conducted a fighting patrol around Benoma to clear the area of militia and to find a police patrol that had gone missing. What followed was an epic 4 hour mission that brought together all the training sessions of the past couple of months and put them into practice, with everyone rising to the challenge and excelling themselves. Well done lads!

 You can see the pictures here.....
 

1 Section form up.

Everyone ready to go!

JAO provide ariel cover and recce, as VCB advance in vehicles.

We dismounted and left the vehicles in a harbour. On foot from here!

After advancing in 1-up formation, 1 section hit an ambush after approaching the wrecked vehicles of the Police patrol. Using fire and manouver, we broke contact for no casualties, and caused the enemy 2 casualties on our way out. Seen here is Delta fireteam, 1 Section, with elements of 2 section and FSG moving to support.

VCB sight some kind of Magician off in the distance....level 9000 mage, my arse.

As FSG set up on the hill behind us to provide cover, 1 section form behind me, with 2 section across the road. Up ahead lay a complex that we were preparing to move upon.

The unexpected destruction of the complex we were to clear at least provided us with a spot of cover.

Alas, during this, we suffered casualties when the buildings collapsed. Thankfully JAO was on hand to provide CASEVAC and get our blokes back in.

Whilst we wait...

After moving off along our patrol route, we hit contact in a forest (pictured). Fighting through, we conducted an assault on a series of farmhouses. Seen here is FSG moving through the proven route to Reorg with the rifle sections after we cleared the final complex.

Whilst the all round defence is up, FSG and the 2ICs of the rifle sections sort some admin out - ammo states and the like.

More from the complex...

1 Section prepare to move.

After assaulting town, we get in amongst it, clearing the town building by building and putting that FIBUA training session to the test. No casualties were taken by VCB, although several enemy were killed during the assault.
