Rogue475 posted on Mar 03, 2014 at 04:00AM
On August 7th 1942, Allied forces stormed the beaches of Guadalcanal. Code-named Operation Watchtower. This was the spark that began a year long struggle to control the pacific during the Second World War. It was a day of courage, of honor, but most of all it was a day of unimaginable fear. Both the number of soldiers awaiting the word as their landing boats head toward the beach, and the Japanese Imperials who were anxiously awaiting to open fire on the overwhelming number of ships. On this day the will of good soldiers will be tested.

Lieutenant Doyle- -August 6th, 1942- -8 Hours Before First Contact-
"How much air cover will we have?" I ask my CO(commanding officer); Lt. Colonel Jackson. He gives me an uneasy glance and sets aside his M1A1 Thompson. "Most of Zulu Squadron will be covering the bombers during the initial assault." He pauses to light a cigar. "...Intel suggests you will be met with heavy resistance. Without air support, you may need to get creative."He concludes and looks at me. "Are you ready for this?"

I sigh and take a swig of the wine Jackson had provided me. "To be honest?... I don't know what to make of them, one minute they are impressing me, the next they're forcing me to threaten a court Marshall... Just yesterday I saw Greg drinking on duty." I reply to him after taking another sip of the aged alcohol. He grins and poors himself another glass. "He's only a corporal if I'm not mistaken?" I nod to him and finish off the wine. "Yes sir, and he isn't the only one."

He then offers me a refill, but I respectively shake my head to decline. "As long as they are fit for duty... You haven't answered my question, Tony." He insists, to which I shift uncomfortably in the seat. "...Yes sir, I've been training for this my entire life." I pause and he nods, listening intently. "The men seem to respect me, but most of them still follow your orders over mine. As they rightfully should, although your no longer their commanding officer."

"When the time comes, they'll know who to follow." Jackson assures me, his eyes not wavering. My heart hoped it was true. "So... this is IT" I mutter, as if not fully comprehending I was to be leading part of the invasion force. "Indeed, and if your men take the victory, you'll be looking at Captain." He assures me and rises from his lounge chair, shaking my hand. "Delta won't let you down, sir." I nod and salute him as I take my leave. "Good luck Lieutenant, and may God be with you all." He returns the salute casually and I head out of his office, toward my own company's quarters.

(Alright :-) the gangs all here, shall we go to war?)
-On board the USS Vincennes-
LT.
"Lieutenant Doyle!" I hear someone exclaim from behind, as I just enter the area designated as Delta's. A few of the men inside look up toward me and I stop, turning toward the voice. "Warrant Officer Joshua Hart, Sir, I've just received word that your company is to be set at tier 2. As of twenty minutes ago the mission parameters have changed, your now going to be joined by a new unit and will provide assistance for the second phase of the operation..." He pauses and awaits my response. But I simply stare off into the bulkhead of the steel beast, different emotions colliding all at once.

"... What about Colonel Jackson, does he know about this?" I finally murmur, after a moment of contemplating the situation. "You mean Lieutenant Colonel Jackson Harper?" The young officer raises an eyebrow, to which I nod. "He just received the message, Sir." He adds. "What's the situation, you've gotta give me more than that." I insist, taking the boy aside, away from view of the men in my company. "... Sir, it's just... An Australian force just now arrived, orders are they're part of the assault, making this a joint operation." He concludes looking up at me.

I sigh and rub my eyes, not sure what to think of these new turn of events. "... Your men will be prepping at 0400, Sir." He adds then gives me a salute. "F*cking Reinforcements..." I whisper under my breath and nod, returning the salute. He grins a little and nods, walking off. I then roll my eyes slightly and touch my hand to my temple, 'shipping out at 4:30 in the morning and we aren't even part of the main assault?...' I think to myself, then step into the large room, full of cots, desks, and men going about their business...

I spot the new unit out of the corner of my eye. Sighing, I walk over to the group. "You must be two-fourteen, we have a section here for your men." I announce over the snickering Australians. "I'm Lieutenant Doyle, Get your things together and catch some shut-eye... We leave at 0430."

"Alright everyone, this is it!" I call out to my company, nodding to the Silent Seventh's acting CO. "You know what to do, you know why we're here! Keep your heads on a swivel, and stay low!" I advise to them as the transport inches closer and closer to the beach.

Lieutenant Doyle- -August 6th, 1942- -30 Minutes Before First Contact-
A gleaming sun had just risen in the East, just as we all exited out transports. The beach had already been taken by 1st Battalion, met with little resistance. "Marcus, Anders, and Smitty! Take the West flank!" I tell the three squad leaders and move over to the rest of Delta Company. "Alright boys we're moving North, toward the Airfield, keep it tight."

"Alright 2/14 you heard the Lt get moving!" Our CO, Lt Alex Banner, shouts and we all move into action. "Malacky, with me." The Lt commands.
"Yes sir," I nod and follow him while adjusting my helmet.
(Fun fact: In the AIF and ADF you can only salute if you are wearing a hat or another piece of headgear. If you aren't wearing one you stand at attention until dismissed.)

Lt. Doyle- -10 Mins Before First Contact-
Twenty minutes on the island and no resistance...? This didn't add up, 1st Battalion was pretty beat up, there had to be at least a couple thousand Japs here... But then why haven't we heard anything?' I think to myself, feeling anxious as I rush onward with Charlie Squad(My designated group).

One of the Officers holds up his fist, indicating for the company to halt. "Harper, what do you see?" I ask the Scout Sniper, armed with his custom M1903 Springfield. "...Jesus." The Marine gulps, looking down his scope. "I count three Officers, at least a company's men..."

I blink at the nearby gunshot, but only phased for a split second. Just as I raise my M1 Carbine, I let loose two quick rounds into the poor fool. "Thanks!" I shout over the gunfire to the Australian Marksman.

Corporal Twombly
"They're flanking!" He shouts to his Gunner, as he feeds the belt into the .30 cal machine gun. "The Japs are breaking through!" Someone screams in the distance. First Battalion, at this point, was overrun. The only thing keeping the main Jap force at bay was the MG fire. A loud ping sounds off as the final round rolls through the belt, leaving the browning dry. "Shit, Reload!" The Gunner shouts, grabbing Blake's Thompson, and firing it into an oncoming Jap charger.
"We're all out!" Blake screams, taking his Thompson from the gunner. "We have to fall back!" The Gunner nods and picks up his M1907 rifle. Both Support gunners then retreat into the forest, running for their lives as the Japs close in...

"Meiyo no tame ni!!!" A banzai Jap screams as he runs after the two, sword in hand. "Six O' Clock!" The Gunner shouts, and instantly shoots the Jap down. "Let's keep it moving!" Blake calls out to his partner, not even bothering to stop. But another six banzai's appear out of nowhere, surrounding the lone Gunner. "Blake!!!" The soldier screams as two blades simultaneously impale him. "No!... Carter!" Corporal Twombly calls out, shooting an entire mag into the charging Japs...

With not a moment to spare, Blake quickly rushes to his partner's side, checking over his wounds. "... I'm sorry... Oh god... Carter, I'm sorry." He cries, watching as his friend's life slips away. "Tenno Haika!!!" Screams an enemy from behind suddenly. In a single fluid motion; Blake draws his British .455 revolver and shoots the attacker down. "You yellow piece of shit, come at me!" He announces to the world, as he stands and reloads his Thompson, walking backwards at the same time. Several more Japs came running out to meet him...

Lt. Doyle~

"Harper!" The Officer shouted, watching as a bullet tore straight through the Sniper's throat. "Son of a bitch." He had cursed as he stepped away from the scene, the shock phasing him. "Harp..." The man began but was cut short when a burst of rounds pelted the foliage beside him. Tony raised his small carbine and fired a response, then ran back for his Company.

"Flash!" The Captain shouted as he ran back into view of the men. "Thunder!" Someone responded almost instantly. "Gunny! I want mortars set up covering our North and West flank! go now!"

"Cap'n, there's another Jap force moving up our Eastern Flank, we're fucking surrounded!" Screamed one of the Company's younger officers. "... You hold your position and dig in!" Doyle nodded, before spotting an ammo bearer being gunned down. "Damnit!" He cursed and picked up the heavy crate of .30 MG ammunition, and began carrying over to the Northern Flank to replenish their supply.
