Personal Narrative: The Whiskey Team
“This is Charlie 3589. We got a patrol moving one click south from your position, Whiskey Team,” said command. “Copy that, command. We got about 30 men guarding a MIG scanning the skies. I advise you raise the drone’s altitude about 2,000 feet to avoid detection,” responded Whiskey Team. “Copy that,” replied command. “You’re getting too close to their camp,” informed command, “We are ordering radio silence.” The sergeant passed on the order to his men. He commanded, “From this point on, I want no chatter. Radios silent. You be silent. This is an order.” The Navy Seals of Whiskey Team kept moving stealthily on foot. Their orders are to investigate a transport truck. Command ordered the investigation because of intercepted …show more content…
“Hey, Lieutenant, where are you from?” asked Private Williams. “Nebraska,” answered Lieutenant Bradford. “Jump!” The unit parachuted down in Panama, just two clicks to from the compound where the gear was manufactured. They quickly reached the factory, cut through the barbed wire fences, and silently took down a few guards before they reached the main office. They reached the door outside the main office. “Corporal, check your magnetic goggles,” ordered Bradford. The corporal will do that to detect metal and other solid substances inside the room. “Sir, we got two guards with AK47s and our target armed with a Makarov pistol,” said Johnson. “Place the charge,” ordered Bradford. The small explosion blew the door open. Johnson and Williams dropped the two guards while Bradford tackled the target against the wall and threw him down on the ground. Their mission is to interrogate the target. He is the head of the manufacturing facility. Johnson put him at gunpoint. “Who ordered your supplies and where is he?” yelled Bradford. The man cringed at Bradford’s voice. He was obviously afraid and quickly replied, stuttering, “His name is Nowak

    On June 27, 1972 Richardson was on his way to work at Lincoln Hospital. Something about Richardson caught Officer Skagens attention that day and officer Skagen reacted by drawing his off duty revolver and his badge, as he approached Mr. Richardson yelling, "I'm a cop! Get your hands up! Get Against the wall! Again he yelled get against the wall! (Chapter 7 , The Subway Station) At this point Richardson complied, At that point a blur"¦ And suddenly the two men were facing each other with their guns pointed. Four shots were fired. Two hit Skagen's shoulder. An third hit Richardsons groin. The fourth ricocheted around the station causing a chip of the cement to lodge in Sylvester Farish's (an innocent bystander in the subway station) forearm.…

    The non-dispatched officers were named at the beginning of today. I am a Corporal, high office that, yet it will do in any case. Newt Matkin is a Corporal, Tom Anderson did not get anything, and I think he was to some degree frustrated, yet I was not shocked. There are around 5 or 6 thousand men in Camp Carrington, other than there are various men in alternate camps around the city. The 31st Regt is here other than various other veteran regts. It is not likely that we will stay here any period of time. Unless the request is canceled, we will leave here next Monday for Greensburg in this state where whatever is left of our regt is at present positioned, we will there be composed and…

    My Lai Massacre Essay

    Kelman and Hamilton claim written orders were never issued (par 6). All orders were passed by word of mouth; by the time they had traveled through Barker, Medina, Calley and finally to the soldiers, the only message that was conveyed was this: the Son My area must be destroyed (Kelman and Hamilton, par 7).Soldiers were under the impression that only VC would be in that village. The Peers Report, mentioned in Kelman and Hamilton’s composition “The My Lai Massacre: A Military Crime of Obedience,” said that it is “reasonable to conclude that LTC Barker’s minimal or nonexistent instructions concerning the handlings of noncombatants created the potential for grave misunderstandings” (par 7). These vague directions were destined to bring about poor results. Because of the ambiguity of the orders, our soldiers cannot be held responsible for the outcome of My…

    The four seals that are tasked with this mission are as followed Marcus Luttrell, Lt. Michael Murphy, Sonar Tech Matthew Axelson, and Danny Dietz. The night of June 2005 the groups of them were camping out overlooking the village when they came across 3 shepherds and a boy. Fearing that they would be spotted and ratted out by the shepherds the group captured them. After debating for a long time whether or not to kill them or let them go the team decided that they would let the shepherds go and move on to another part to continue on the mission. And hour later the seals were surrounded by hundreds of members of the Taliban warriors up on a mountain. There surrounded in a heated gun battle with the Taliban warriors with nowhere to go atop the mountain top with their backs against the wall and running out of space to operate, Marcus yelled out to the group to fall back, meaning telling them to jump off the cliff of the mountain so that they could at least get away from the Taliban’s to regroup and call for back up and get a better chance at fighting them. Already down to just three of them and badly wounded Marcus and Matthew being shot in the head but still out there in the fight, while Lt. Murphy was out trying to find a way…

    We opened the door and stepped inside to the warmth of the house. The lieutenant noticed and questioned us, asking why we came here when we were supposed to be guarding the radar. We quickly and anxiously told him what happened so far. After we finished he suddenly laughed, confusing both of us. He said that they were a large group of planes coming from California and that was probably them. We agreed and went back to our grueling watch over the radar, but something was bugging me to say the very least. The lieutenant didn’t tell us when they were going to…
