20th of September, 2015:

We weren't prepared. That was our great sin. Though through the grace of luck alone, of the troops who were, by coincidence alone, present in Delta Section were among our finest. Still, along with them were several base security personnel. Equipped with standard weapons and not trained for this sort of combat, it was all but an inevitability that they would not fare well in this situation...

I suppose the same could be said of any of us, and yet I feel the terrible burden of responsibility settling over me. We've been so fortunate up to this point, so cut off from the terrible cost of this war, the cities, the civilians. Down here in our base, although we knew that people were dying, although I felt it and mourned over every civilian we couldn’t save, we were still far removed from the realities of it.

But this, this I feel down in my bones. The aliens have struck us at our heart, and it bleeds. There isn't even satisfaction to be found in revenge, this is simple survival. I only hope that we have enough reinforcements to keep the team in Delta Section strong enough for this fight...
