Situation

Background Information
The ANA forces in this valley have been at war with local Taliban for some time now. While holding their own, yet making little progress the fierceness of war was simmering. In an unexpected turn, ISIS, who have been battling it out against both coalition forces and the Taliban, have pushed the ANA out of their airbase to between a rock and a hard place. BAF have set up in an old FOB just South West of Uzbin valley and are preparing to push into the valley to support. Our first tasking is to gain a foothold in the valley of Uzbin and the nearby towns. Find out what we can of the situation before going onward to save the ANA.
