OPERATIONS ORDER
Operation Honeybadger (2001), Makkaka Valley (Part 2)

--- OPERATIONS ORDER ---

Situation

Background Information
Following the successful mission to secure half of Tottah, command has seen fit to send the unit further north to continue to push the Taliban out of the region. Deploying a larger force, they have tasked 2 1st SFG ODAs to support the main forces flanks and secure and remaining structures, to ensure the main force does not walk into a valley which is a kill zone. Command is also sending additional special forces assets from the 160th SOAR, such as a armed littlebird for air cover in the region. Following the heavy fighting in Tottah last time, we are expecting the Taliban to reinforce the region from its central base at Kassadar with more armoured & insurgency assets being spotted headed across the river bed by northern alliance forces. After communicating with the northern alliance, both forces have decided that the northern alliance will make a diversionary attack from the north on the main stronghold to try and pull some of the Taliban forces out of our area of operations.
