Bio/History:
Wondering if I could right a short story that will contain some history of this world you've envisioned. Would you like me to PM it to you first?
"G'day, Ghost Squad," beams General Wilson, "I assume you know the drill by now?" he laughs as he starts up the computer and projector. A satellite image of Madagascar flickers onto the screen. "Today gentlemen, you shall be hunting down the 'nine of diamonds,'" a small grin spreads across his face, "or Craig Winston if you want to be more personal."
The picture snaps to a small village, partially obscured by the trees around it. "This is where Winston has been tracked to by our satellite," Wilson's face became serious, "we have no idea how many rebels he has with him, but we believe him to be planning to attack Mozambique," he looks around the squad sitting in with him, he fixes his eyes on Damien, "you will be going in by boat and getting a rough idea about the rebels before Foxtrot and Indigo squads move in to take the village."
"Who will be going in the squads?" asks Vase in his broad accent.
"It will be you, Sedrick, Jason and Sebastian, on Foxtrot. With Trin, Eric, Joshua and Myles making up Indigo," grins Wilson, "Damien you will be dropped in here,? he points at a river mouth nearby the village, "it's a 2k tab which should take you no time. Foxtrot will be dropped in 6k east of the village and wait up over night, with Indigo doing the same 6k to the west."
Vase nods his approval at the plan before asking, "how long do we have to prepare?"
"You have an hour from when you leave this room," he smiles slyly, "any questions you lot?" he asks as he rests against the computer table.
Begin asking questions etc you want to know and sorry if I've got anyone name wrong and if you point it out I shall fix it
Damien remains silent. He locks eyes with the general, gives a curt nod, then stands up and walks to the nearby table, which carries a variety of weapons and armaments. He picks up a silenced pistol and starts to dismantle and check it, his back to the rest of the group. His head remains slightly turned towards the rest of the group, and it is clear he is still listening.
"Sir, what's the method of insertion and how are we being extracted? Also, I presume if possible we take the target alive as usual? We might be able to get some useful intel out of this one."
"We're doing a HALO insertion for the squads," answers Wilson, "and a chopper for extraction, it's your choice on the target, alive would be preferred for intel, but if he puts up a fight, put him down. Secondary objective is acquire any reports etc you can to further get further intel on the F.F.H, this shouldn't distract you from main mission but would be appreciated." Wilson says as he looks around the room, "anything else?"
Damien turned around and spoke, not bothering to raise his hand. "How will I communicate with the rest of team?" He asked. "And how long do I have before they move in?"
Sorry about the change of tense. I'm still deciding between the two.
A PR radio, you will only be able to use it when your alone though, Wilson looks at Damien, or you can take a pressel with you to count the number of rebels to the squads, if you want? And as soon as you feel ready to call them in you can. smiles Wilson.
Myles leans back in his chair, toying with his necklace. "So am I bringing in the bird?" He begins to smirk a little wider, "Or will I be showin' the Nine of Diamonds my poker face?"
"G'day, Ghost Squad," beams General Wilson, "I assume you know the drill by now?" he laughs as he starts up the computer and projector. A satellite image of Madagascar flickers onto the screen.

Well, if that's all you want to know, I'd suggest following Jason's lead and get some kit, Wilson snapped a salute, Good luck and give him hell gentlemen.
"Goodbye sir," saluted Vase before leaving the room, "right people, lets go," said Vase as he lifted a machete from the table before leaving the room. He headed down the hall behind Jason to the quartermaster.
The sound of Vase's voice seemed to snap Damien out of his reverie. He pocketed the flickknife and the pistol, then glance at Wilson. Wilson gave him a smile. With a curt nod, Damien turned and left the room.
Eric picked up a silenced 9mm, loaded it, checked to make sure the round was secure in the chamber, and exchanged the clip for a fresh one. His sidearm now fully loaded, he holstered it and grabbed a pair of spares that went on his belt.
Jason raised his hand to his brow in salute as he walked to the door, lokcing eyes with Wilson.
"General, sir."
He continued across the room and exited, walking down the softly lit corridor until he reached a staricase. Travelling down it, he passed a few men from the GSSG (Ghost Squad Support Group) and grinned at them.
"Alright lads."
Carrying on, he soon reached the quartermaster's station. Entering, he walked up to the grated area and leaned on the counter.
"Hey Paul, how's it going? Just come here to pick up my kit."
The man behing the grate smiled and slid a clipboard through the small gap in the grate.
"No worries man, just sign for whatever you need."
Jason took the pen from the clipboard and ticked off a few items on the sheet, scrawling his signature at the bottom. Handing it back, he was rewarded with an H&K HK416, several extra magazines, three fragmentation grenades, two smoke grenades and a satchel with 4 blocks of C4 and remote detonators.
"Cheers mate, see you on the other side."
He walked off to organise his BDU and prepare for the drop.
Now that the general was done briefing Joshua left for the quarter master. He selected Rosy his sniper rifle, and grabbed three magazines of 20 mm shells and well as his faithful Berratta side arm
"Hello Paul," grins Vase, "did we get the incendiary 'nades in yet?" he asks expectantly. Not yet sorry mate, groans Paul.
"Ovell," sighs Vase, "always next time," he smiles, can I get my request form please?" he says. Paul slides the form through with a smile.
He ticks off an AK-74 grenadier with 8 extra magazines and 6 40mm grenades. Along with the frags and flashbangs he always took. He winked at Paul as he slid the form through and asked, "did you manage to get the Deagle in?"
"Specially for you Vase," he laughed as he passed the container through the hole in the mesh, "got 3 mags for it in there for ya." he laughs as Vase begins to turn away.
He moves away to get his clothes together for the drop. He pulls out the boonie hat and smiles as he pulls it on, waiting for the others to get ready.
