    During my time in the Army, I have had plenty of obstacles, one in particular would be when I was a RTO (radio tech operator) and we were attached to another battalion to go raid a village. We patrolled all night until we walked twelve miles to our location avoiding helicopters flying in the sky looking for us. Once we finally set up an OP (observation post) we had a team go out and recon the village and we established a plan on how we were going to attack the village. My squad only had about nine of us, so we were not initially part of the main element to go in and assault the village. However, as we started creeping up to the first obstacle, a fence, helicopters started patrolling for us again.…

    Yet again we were wrong as we were mercilessly bashed with wave upon wave of enemy fire. Soon our ammo ran dry and we waited behind a concrete wall and hoped for the planes to come. The enemy soon felt brave enough to charge at us with batons and swords but this was their fatal mistake and we fought back hard. Our strength was godly compared to theirs and we only had to use a single punch to kill a single man. After only a few short minutes a pile of bodies has formed around our concrete wall, the enemy knew that this was a mistake which they shall regret and whoever could flee fled as far as possible away from us.…
