William and Barnes made their way to the cockpit of condor nine to get to the pilots radio only to find Wyatt on the ground in a state of shock. "Oh thank god your here! Thank god!"
"Wyaty get up" barnes said as he made his way over to the chair.
"Vultures one, three, four, and eight are down we have to abort. William get this boy off the floor!"
"Thats a negative condor nine maintain your course".
William made his way over to Wyatt to slap him across the face to bring him back to his senses.
"Listen to me condor nine if this mission fails we lose Europe. Its that simple" a plane had burst into flame and went down in front of them "damn it" william thought. "If you dont stop the Germans now condor nine that window is closed forever we will lose this war."
"Roger Gordon i hear you, look ive got to go. The German compound is up ahead"
"Allied command out"
"Condor nine out"
Barnes got on the planes intercom.
"Brace for impact were coming down hard!...cant see fuck all!...hold on!" The plane had hit the water. William was under holding his breath watching men get hit my machine gun fire. Bullet trails of bubbles that ended in clouds of blood forming around the corpses. "Its the break of dawn, july 16, 1946. Everything has gone to shit. The nazi war machine is advancing at an astonishing rate. We cant catch up. Our tactics are failing. Outclassed and outgunned. No one knows why. People are getting desperate. Not me. Im here to capture technology and turn this thing around. William was carried away in thought but he soon recovered and swam to a wreckage of a plane and overheard barnes on the radio. "Barnes whats your status?"
"William? Weve got it bad over here. Trapped inside an aircraft while a pillbox is trying to fucking tear us to shreds"
"Ive got the same problem here, shacked up inside dead wreckage"
"Is that you over there? Private wyatt flash your lights. William can you see the lights" a machine gun had started to fire on the light. "Wyatt turn off the light, turn it off!"
"Yes sir!"
"I see you. What can i do for you" william asked. "We cant hit the MG from our position. Utterly fucking trapped in here but if you could access the cockpit turret on this aircraft you might be able to kill the gunner"
"Good plan barnes, coming to you" william ran out of the wreckage over to one near Barnes position and onto the turret and opened fire on the German position and took out the gunners.
"You saved us! Corporal William sir!"
Wyatt let out relieved.
"Calm down you sock" barnes said to him "eh william you want ro hear my plan for how we traverse this glamorous beach front without being gunned down? All right listen up. Theres a high powered machine gun nest in those trenches over there. We cannot advance our unit without being slaughtered. So... i want you to make your way over into those trenches and take the nest out. Just run as fast as you possible can straight up the middle we'll lay down covering fire from here"
"Got it" william replied.
