Night Ops

3 weeks into my visit to Iraq, and our CO informed my squad of our first night mission.

The best thing about night missions is that they rarely go wrong. A night mission is quick, ruthless and painless. A night mission comes like a thief (soldier) in the night.

An assault after hours, with no soldiers lost, is much preferred - no one is affected. That's the beauty you see - no repercussions.


The first night mission was a breeze (Not literally). We stormed straight into the barracks...

BLAM BLAM BLAM! "Oh no, you little monkey!"

BOOM BLAM BLAM... EXPLOSION! "Arrgh, my mangos!"

RAT-A-TAT-A-TAT-A-TAT! "Flipin' 'eck matey you shot my cock off!"

Night missions are definitely on the lighter side of war.

It's quick - in-out - and no one gets hurt. Just like rape.
