Operation Overture | US Airborne Brigade | SOG DLC

 Get ready to land boys!
Watch out the LZ is HOT!

  ++MISSION BRIEFING++

Good morning, everyone. As you all know, we have a critical mission ahead of us. As of today morning, the main US Army will attack the city of Hanoi, and we have been tasked with taking over three critical PAVN and VC emplacements. The success of our mission is essential for the overall success of the American effort in Vietnam.

Our first objective is a radio tower located northeast of Hanoi. This tower is critical to the enemy's communication network, and destroying it will significantly benefit the main push towards Hanoi. We must ensure that the tower is destroyed and cleared of any PAVN forces.

Our second objective is a POW camp that reportedly contains informants and POWs that need to be rescued. The camp is heavily guarded, and we expect strong resistance from the enemy. We must move quickly and efficiently to rescue the prisoners and neutralize any PAVN forces in the area.

Our last objective is located northwest of Gia Lan Airbase and is a highly strategic location occupied by anti-air and mortar emplacements. The more damage we do to it, the greater our chances of pushing through the west. This location is critical to the enemy's defense, and we must ensure that we neutralize it before the main push towards Hanoi.

Let's go out there and make our country proud!

-Airborne Commander

++BRIEFING COMPLETED++

MISSION SUMMARY: This will be a heavily themed mission with elements taken from the Vietnam War, with some artistic liberties taken. The mission will be making use of the Arma 3 Prairie Fire DLC and a custom Modset which will be posted as well at the bottom of this event page in a compiled list.  Weaponry within the mission will be restricted to Vietnam/Faction based weaponry and will be restricted per your chosen role. Tags for applicable roles are being enforced and will not be different from standard slotting. Squad Structure and PTLN structure have been changed to accommodate the theme and structure of operations in the Vietnam War.
