SITUATION
It is March of 1963, you are part of MAC-V SOG Recon Team (RT) Dakota, callsign Cobra. You will conduct covert actions in Laos. The missions you will conduct are top secret. You will wear no identifying markings, no rank, or unit insignia and the US government will deny your existence if you are captured or killed.
MISSION
Good morning, this is the briefing from the S-3 Operations Officer. Target Mike-Six is located in SE Laos and slightly overlaps highway 110. The last team was RT California 18 months ago so we have very little fresh intelligence. Recent aerial reconnaissance photos have disclosed road construction leading into Mike-Six where it becomes hidden below the jungle canopy. Mike-Six is a black hole, we have almost no information on what else is in there. Although we think the large canopy may be concealing several truck parks. East of Mike-Six NSA direction finding have defined elements of the 66th NVA Regiment which may be operating in your area.
Dakota will depart from Command and Control North (CCN) FOB Three and head to the designated AOR. There, RT Dakota will try to locate an NVA secret truck trail, find and kidnap an NVA Officer if the opportunity presents itself, and recon a VC hilltop. Command also wants RT Dakota to destroy a VC bunker in the area if able to avoid them ambushing future friendlies operating in the area.
