It was a clod rainy day, and my team was sent out to capture the enemy commander... little did we know that I was their target as well. My team set off walking slowly along the river 15min had gone by when we first had contact. We were caught in a field just past the bridge choke point, it was going to be a murder. Luckily my re-con held its own and we took out 5 of them taking no casualties. Pushing on we ran into sporadic gun fire but nothing major... then our re-con got hit hard and went down, the assault forces (myself included) pushed up, only to find their base, our left flank folded and I was forced to fall back to the field where we hit our first contact. while waiting to regroup I noticed two running along the river towards my HQ, they did not notice me so I decided to move up and take them out. I got hunkered down behind a tree took aim on one of them, to my surprise it was their commander, I pulled the trigger and click misfire. they heard the click and opened up. I was now pinned and exchanging fire with the two hiding in some bushes. Just then I heard a twig snap behind me and turned to see two more enemy units sneaking up on me, I turned and took one of them out and caused the other to take cover, I was now surrounded on all but one side. Just when I was going to make a run for it another enemy moved on the flank that was open, I was now 100% surrounded and shortly after went down to a multitude of fire. I awoke being escorted back to their HQ for questioning, I went to grab my knife which I had stashed away and dropped it they quickly snatched it up and pushed me onward. We were half way to their HQ when my Re-con element showed up again, they managed to take out all but one, which in turn killed them. he escorted back to their base where I found out that they were to take me somewhere else for questioning in in 10min. I decided I would be annoying until then and started to sing, when I saw one of the three guards had a lose grip on his FAMAS. The other two guards had an M16 w/ under-slung M203 and an M4 w/ under-slung 12Ga pump. I decided I had nothing to lose and made a grab for the FAMAS. The surprised grunt watched helplessly as I killed his two companions and then him and ran off toward my HQ to reunite with my squad and claim victory. I had escaped from 3 armed men using their own weapons to kill them, these men were no pogs either, they were hardened veterans, some more experienced than myself. This truly was a daring escape.
