Rescue Mission

Author: Mike














I got the full version of Battlefield: Bad Company before my friend did so that means I played a lot of the demo.  I've racked up so many points and so much time that I just recently finally surpassed those stats in my real game!


Playing Oasis over and over and over, you really start to learn a few tricks.  


In one particular game, my buddy decided to go extremely wide and work his way up to be even with the enemy base.  Oh, we were on Defense too but he wanted to slow the other guys down, dropping JDAM's and what not.  Just putting the fear in them that a sniper was somewhere out there.


He worked his way to the side, taking out guys here and there but also providing intel.  Letting us know that certain vehicles were oscar mike (on the move) and where they were headed.  


Staying on the side was starting to look scary as some assault classes were firing random rounds and grenades trying to see if they would hit anything.  As soon as it was clear, he moved to the very rear of their base, hidden in the grass.


Well, after not too long, they realized he was back there.  Destroying a few tanks, they turned around to see if they could find him.  The enemy tank was only halfway back to its base to look for him when myself and an unkown team member decided it was time to mount a rescue mission.


Our man has been out there too long and wasn't about to have his number called.  I hopped in a humvee and my fellow teammate manned the .50 cal.  We took off from our base and went across the bridge.  It was half blown up but I just hugged the wall and we made it across fine.


Driving down the long exposed straightaway, we could see we were almost even with the tank.  Pushing the pedal to the floor, the humvee roared on, catching air at some of the dunes.  Finally, almost there, we splashed through the water and swerved to go around the base instead of through it.  The tank fired but missed.


I told my squad member to cut a hole in the back gate and wait outside of the corner building.  We pulled up just as a squad member spawned on the tank, which was now in the middle of their compound.  With our rear ends hanging out, my gunner swung his .50 cal around and eliminated the threat.   Holding "B" to jump in as he got close, my squad mate jumped in the rear as I slammed the peal of the humvee to the floor again.


We took off straight back to our base to regroup and find a support guy, our sniper was slightly injured and our humvee needed repairs.  


But we made it out.


I am an American Soldier (depending on attack or defense)

I am a Warrior and a member of a team. (play as a squad, no team killing)  

I will always place my mission first. (destroy/defend those crates!

I will never accept defeat.

I will never quit. (unless you rank up and it's really late at night)

I will never leave a fallen comrade. (drop those health packs)

I am disciplined, physically, and mentally tough. 

I am an expert and I am a professional. (place C4 then arm)

I stand ready to deploy, engage, and destroy the enemies in close combat. (knife!)

I am a guardian of freedom.

I am a Bad Company Soldier
