Operation Name: Psychopomp
Engagement Number: 9
Situation:
BLUF: A truck carrying tobacco is carrying contraband. It will be passing through OBJ Boston and stop at OBJ Chicago. Capture the truck and acquire the contraband for more intel.
In the previous engagement, SESO attempted to captures the Capos of Los Mineros and Santa Luz Stars Lean Alejandro and Agustín Delgado. In the crossfire, Delgado was KIA, leaving only Alejandro alive.
Following an interrogation, we received some intel from Alejandro on the origin of the contraband. Since he was the weakest capo in the cartel, he was often left out on proceedings. His only knowledge of the traffic was it extended to Campeones, the home of the island’s Garínagu.
A Triple Amenaza teamster makes a stop in a storage yard designated as OBJ Chicago. The Garínagu trade the tobacco disguising as illegal drugs with imported weapons. To confirm the intel, we will need to infiltrate OBJ Chicago disguised as locals. We will observe the passing trucks until the tobacco truck is found. During its trip back, OBJ Boston will be setup to ambush the truck. As soon as we secure the contraband, local Garínagu forces will counter-attack from Campeones.
Bravo will enter and exit the AO by Zodiac Boats acquired in the previous engagement. Driving a large truck through the roads would attract attention from the cartel’s forces. The safest and fastest route back to base is by boat on OBJ Alamo, where the final defense will be made.
Once OPSCOM gets a hold of the contraband, we can identify them to learn further of the contraband trade on the island.
Additionally, we learned that an E.I.T.S. science book can be find within the abandoned buildings in OBJ Boston. Find it and bring it back to complete the boat garage.
