Operation Vertex, Day 5

--- OPERATIONS ORDER ---

Situation

Background Information
With the success of yesterday's mission to conduct a presence patrol and secure friendlies from enemy territory, UEF high command is requesting a similar motorized operation in the far South-West of the blue zone. A Nationalist supply yard/ logistics depot has been identified as one of the main reasons the Nationalists are still able to put up such a stiff resistance. The UEF believe this to be the last hold-out of the Nationalists in the blue zone, and dismantling it will allow friendly forces to secure the currently claimed land before looking to take more of Chernarus. We have also identified an opportunity to get the locals on-side, and will transport humanitarian supplies to the towns of Pustoshka and Myshkino with the hopes of winning over the civilians living there- many of whom still support the Nationalists' cause.

Enemy Forces
We expect the Nationalists to field similar equipment to which we have seen so far during the campaign; mismatched Soviet and western arms and vehicles.

Mission

Tasking
UNITAF will conduct a motorized presence patrol South-West of Johnston Airbase through the towns of Pustoshka and Myshkino- dropping humanitarian supplies at each- before assaulting and securing a Nationalist Supply Depot in a converted Lumberyard.
