SOMEONE shot a SAM at us and we had to put down in Oakland (what a drek-hole)
Some street-punks came afterus when we set down hell they thought that we were
a DocWagon team and they wanted some drugs. well thats another story, Oh the
vid on the first raid is trashed on the gangers did more damage than I at first

Loudo: someone moving down on the ground.
DJ Yep I count....10..no...22 targets...they are armed.. we are going in to a
hot LZ everone lock and load.
RR: check targeting the group on our 6
Loudo stands up grabing the HMG and hooks it up to a gyro-mount and hits a
button that opens the back end of the comander to a ramp, and hook up to a
d-ring on the body of the plane and starts to fire at the group
RT: Quick kids clear me a landing zone
DJ: check...Match ready to repell down?
Match: Yea..Loudo clear us an area...their
you see MAtchsticks point to spot on the ground that is comming up fast.

Match and DJ step out of the rear deck and start decending from two replelling
lines fireing as they drop....as this is happening the Vindercator on the
turent on the nose of the Comerder opens up with a humm of a thousand Bees
and next thing that you see is the gun cam and bodys that were in one peice are
now in many peices as several APDS rounds tear thourgh the targets
Matchsticks and Death Jestor stand back to back shooting at any thing that
comes close to the area..with in seconds of the Vinicator starting up the
gangers start running away from the aircraft.
DJ: Death Jestor to Rolling Thunder...LZ Cold repete LZ Cold
