Greetings soldier. (Lets give some background). Your unit has been on patrol for 21 days with very little activity. The perimeter has been quiet and no hostile action has been noticed.

You are the radio operator and have had a long of patrol and all you can expect is another boring evening of maneuvers. You know before long you will rotate out for a few days of R&R. The time is 21:30 when you hear the radio crackle… A message from command is coming through.. …
