Fotis took the message and when he read it,he said loud to the 80 men in front of him:
"Men,we are the finest troops of the whole NATO!"

The men laughed.Stavros said:"Oh,you should have seen Dimitris at the firing range!"
Dimitris replied:"Yeah,yeah!Your mine plating skills are remarkable!"

Fotis said:"Σκασμος! (shut up)ΟΚ,regroup on me!

He took them and organised them in teams.
"Konstantine,you and your 9 partners,you're EAGLE team.Your task is to go to that hill over there and there your main mission will be to provide sniper support and call in the A-10's if nesesssary."
"Alexander the Pelloponesian,you and your 9 partners will be team TIGER.Your mission is to lay down suppresive fire and keep the Soviet's heads down."
"Nikos,you and your 9 partenrs are team PANTHER.Your mission is to cover our North-West Flank from any advacing Russian who is trying to flank us."
""Golden" Kostas,you're 9 partners are team JAGUAR.Your mission is to cover our South Flanks from any Russian flanking tactic."
"Alex,you and you and your 9 partners are team LION.Your mission is to destroy any tanks or armored vehicles that pose a threat to us."
"Angel,you and your 9 partners are team SHARK.Your mission is to lay down some mines to ambush the Russians."
"Finally,Stacy and Natasha,you and the rest of the men and girls are teams DOVE and OWL respectively.You are in reserve.Remain at Alfeild until further notice."

"What are you waiting for?MOVE OUT NOW!"he shouted.

He took his second in Command and told him:"Vasili,go with team EAGLE and take the radio.Ill transit orders from the cafe,protcetd by Team DOVE."
"Yes sir."He said.

"Lets hope the Danish tanks dont screw up,because the Russians have got some armored vehicles......"

He then went to the cafe and hoped his men would come out of here-alive.

The tension in the briefing room was almost unbearable- the men were understandably worried. It was the first time in combat for the vast majority of them. Only a few of his oldest CO's had any experience from the later of Vietnam, but they had trained countless hours for a similar scenario to this.

Foley had got his men together and moved them to the expected direction of attack. He set his men up on the South side of the L469 while the Brit's set up to the North. He was very anxious, this was the first time he had commanded a whole company in combat, and it was certainly very different from his experiences in 'Nam. However, he had faith in his men- he would rather have no one else under his command.

He also had faith in the other companies. He knew some of the Brits from various training exercises and knew they worked well. Although he didn't like to admit it, they had outsmarted him more then once out on the plains of Northern Germany. Then again, he had also given them their fair share of surprises. He had also bumped into the Dane earlier. He had given him some of his axle grease seeing as Delta wouldn't be needing it to his disappointment- he was looking forward to seeing the new Humvees in action. Still, the Danes had plenty of armour support, and Foley had plenty of other toys to play with.

Andersen stood on top of his tank and searched the area in front of him once more, his binoculars swaying almost mechanically from side to side.

He had organised 1st Platoon into Hunter-Killer teams. 2 Tanks each in 2 Teams.

The Fighting holes had been dug deep enough to conceal the tanks. They had to drive a little up the ramp in front of them to get the turret out. This provided great cover from Soviet RPG's and their tanks. The team worked so, as the first tank drove up and opened fire, it would feed target information to the other tank in cover, so as it drove up to engage, it wouldnt have to waste time on confirming the best target.

To the north he could see the british infantry and the tanks of 2nd Platoon, meanwhile to the south he could see the americans and 3rd Platoon. If all went well, Andersen and his tanks would take out any vehicle that could threaten the Infantry, and then regroup at another location without casulties.

But it probably wasnt going to happen like that in real life. Andersen had accepted that he would loose men, the day he became an officer. Off course, he had just thought it would be on firing ranges, field exercises and the like, not in actual warfare.

And especially not against a foe like this.

The men took their equipment and then ran for many meteres to get to their position on their positions,near the curve,along road L469.

When the teams arrived at their positions,they could see the Americans and Danes fortifying several metres behind them.Soonly afterwards,they saw the Brits and more Danish tanks trying to fortify the area.

Angel and his team alyed down the mines and went to the small hill team EAGLE was occupying.When teh Russians would be ambsuhed,SHARK and TIGER teams would destroy Russian light vehiclkes like trucks,because they werent tarined enoght to blow up tanks sky high.

Vasilis looked at his binoculars back and fourth to detect any Russian collum.

OOC: Com its 1986 XD im stealing ur phone like

Nick heard the distant rumble of russain armour it shook the ground the men around his were nervouis and quite rightly they only protection they had from .50cal bullets and 125mm tank shells was a thin brick wall. They had loaded the AT-4 it was an experimental AT weapon so they'd be battle tested.

"Wait for the first few to pass then fire onto the last tank hopefully we can blockade the road and those Leapords can pick off whats left"
