Sniper teams like Glen and Thomas specialized not only in dealing death from afar, but in gathering information. The two men had been placed dozens of times on missions where they never intended to take a shot. Sometimes their skill and training as observers and spotters was all that was required. As the two men sat on a ridge two hundred yards from the FOB, they used that very skill set as well as night vision equipment to determine what their course of action would be.

“I see no movement at all,” Glen said as he peered through his optics at the base. The base sprawled across a flat ledge on the side of the opposing ridge from where the two men and Rasa were. The ledge ran perhaps a hundred yards from side to side running parallel to a road that ran along the Cliffside the base fronted. The ledge’s back ended in a high rock outcropping perhaps twenty yards to the rear. Both men wondered what the back side of the ridge looked like. The rear rock facing the base sat against seemed like a bad strategic weakness.

The base had walls made of sand-filled Hesco barriers, plywood and logs. The gate to enter the base was made of steel rebar, welded plates of scrap metal and concertina wire. It sat ajar, leaving a two foot wide gap.

“That open gate is bad juju. I can see one humvee. The three sandbox structures I have no movement, and the two conex containers are wide open at the end I can see. It looks like everyone left in a bit of a hurry,” Thomas said, his intense focus on the base’s layout paying off with clues.

“Agreed. If there were still living soldiers down there the gate would be closed. You see signs of a firefight? You think they were hit by insurgents or undead?” Glen scanned the facility with his spotter’s optics as well.

“I can see some RPG impacts as well as pretty typical small arms fire damage. No idea if it’s new or not. I’m sure this place caught hell on the regular before all this zombie shit started going down. No way of telling.”

Glen agreed, but said nothing.

“Let’s observe for another hour. That’ll give us what? Three hours of darkness to recon the joint. We leave Rasa in the tree line at the base of the valley down there, and move her up and in once we know it’s safe.”

Torrance nodded. The plan was as good a plan as any.
