Personal Narrative: The Four Navy Seals
It was the summer of 2035 and tensions were rising between NATO and CSAT forces on the island of Tanoa, TAF forces were busy trying to keep peace on the island but with constant combat between CSAT and NATO it is becoming difficult.

They got to the island so quickly, but I was informed that 2 of my alpha squad members returned to outpost alpha and saved almost 20 marines that held sanctuary there.

I know that the attempt at taking over that compound was next to impossible, but I still feel dread for all the Marines we lost in that final effort. It is currently 2038 and I still I am alive with my family, but still in denial about all of the marines we lost, all of alpha squad's members got returned to their homes as well and now live with their families.
