Chapter 18
It had been a grueling four days in Lebanon. The team worked seamlessly and got the three diplomatic aid workers back on US soil. The rebels holding them were amateur, at best. Chaotic, undisciplined and unplanned. The team referred to missions like this as drive thrus. Pull up, find what you want, get what you need, and home in a flash. All in a quick and efficient, timely manner.
The guys gathered their personal gear in their cages after returning their rifles and sidearms to the basement armory. All weapons and gear were turned in and logged by staff. Inventory of damaged or broken weapons and gear had to be up to date so Mary could order any necessary and needed items and replacements before the next mission.
King never skimped on tacticals. Any mods or specialty orders the guys needed or requested to make their job easier and more efficient, King would gladly supply them. He knew having the appropriate tools to make the job more efficient could mean the difference between living and dying; between bringing his brothers home whole or bringing them home beneath a flag. Slate knew King never let money stand between his guysâ ability to carry out a mission and succeed. Slate appreciated that King knew how hard it was when you didnât have the equipment needed. In the military, they were supplied with what the DOD thought they needed. Even though Special Forces got a highly padded budget for the latest and greatest weapons and gear, it wasnât always available when they needed it. And, the hoops needed to jump through to get it was a mind fuck. Sometimes it was easier to go without than to go through the grind to get what you needed. King wasnât going to put his men through that. The guys wouldnât request things they didnât deem necessary, and anything he could give them to make a mission successful, he never balked. Although, Tripâs request for the M1A2C Abrams tank was a bit of a stretch and above budget. Mission success of the last op had the guys on a high and the usual banter, bullshit and barbs were being slung amongst the guys when T came into the room.
âHoly hell! Smells like shit in here.â T wrinkled his nose at the smell of sweat, BO and some indescribable foul, rank, stank hanging in the air. None of the guys had gotten to the shower yet, and they had a four-day funk on them.
Arctic was the first to pipe up, âSome of us have been doing menâs work and smell like men, while others,â he nodded to T-BAR, âhave been doing delicate pansy-ass work and smell like roses.â Arctic strode up and gave him a light sniff. âNew bath bomb fragrance, or is your tampon scented?â The guys erupted in laughter.
T gave him a half-hearted gut check, and Arctic doubled over even though he was laughing the whole time.
âDo you need me to pull the string so you
