Mark jogged back to his barrack, the briefing running through his head, The infamous Wolfe would be leading the op. The was an honour and a half initself. Turning to the job at hand he went over his kit.
He puled his webbing together pulling it down over his armour. Loading his pistol Mark flicked the LAM on and off to check it was working then slid the pistol into the the holster on his right thigh, He slid five spare magazines into the ammo slots on the side of the holster. Next he grabbed his back up piece a matt black MP5K-PDW, a nice small piece with sliding stock and front handle for more accuracy, he checked the LAM and then secured a sound supresor to the barrel, it might limit his range a bit he thought but if I have to use this they're gonna be close. Slinging it, it lay neatly on the back of his left ribs. He stowed some spare magazines for the MP5 in the ammo pouch attached to his left thigh, 8 Mags of 30 rounds intotal.
His M4A1, a piece from his days in the special forces, was his prize weapon, powerful yet compactable, with a sliding stock for tight CQ's. He added the a handle to the front rail, on the sides went a flash light and a LAM, this Laser Aiming Module could be set to visible or infrared for night time jobs. He attached a sound suppresor to the front. On top was a day and night combi sight. He slid a magazine into place and pulled the cocking handle. He put it down on the bed. He slid mags into the front ammo pouches of his webbing and into the ammo slots on his chest 20 mags intotal.
To the back of his webbing he secures the M203 attachment for M14, He had a specialised pouch attached to his webbing to accomodate this smaller version of the M16's M203 launcher. He slid 5 40mm Anti personel grenades into the webbing pounch on his right hand side. Next he tapes the numerous grenades he has and the clips them onto the straps of his webbing. Finally a Combat knife slides into place on the front of his amour.
He then sorts out his mini-rucksack, into it goes, replacment ammo for all his weapons, spare magazines preloaded, water canteens X2, Field Med Kit, SATCoM Uplink Radio, 2 lengths of light weight rope. Some emergency rations and batteries for all electronic equipment. Strapping the ruck sack to his back it sits perfectly above the rear webbing pouches.
He slings his M4 over his shoulders, it rest down his right hand side, the pistol grip just inches from his hand. He secures his man to man radio, gask mask and helmet. He heads outside.
Seeing the boys waiting at the gait Mark jogs up to the Captain comes to a halt smartly at attention, and snapped off a smart salute.
"Captain, Sir, Warrant Officer Mark Gimbol"
As the gate opened and the team jogged out, Mark though to himself; 'Great baby sitting duty, I hope the fucking scientist has the sence to keep close me and harrington'
