Schrader returned the salute. " We haven't made many in roads into the swamps I'm afraid. I can tell you to watch your six though. Most of our intel comes from scouts we've been sending into the swamp. In fact Martin, the scout you that will be guiding your crew is is one of my best. He is due out any time from another assignment. I'm guessing your lost team is being held by either barbarians or slavers, they seem to be our most common threats. How were you looking to do insertion? Makes a big difference with that little storm they keep telling me is going to blow through here. Sam nods as she listens to Schader as she says "I'm happy for any help that you can give us." When asked how they were going to do the insertion, she replies "I was hoping to go in as quiet as possible to attract as little attention as possible." She hesitates before admitting "I have to confess I have never been this far south before, so any hints you can give me will be greatly appreciated." |

Trassk scowled. " They're just painkillers. Docs said I was bound to have headaches for a while after I got released. compliments of a piece of metal that embedded in my melon while I was trying to keep the Captain alive when we tripped a bouncing betty on our last day trip. I'll be fine, long as I don't get too stressed out."
" I've forwarded as much on the region as I could to your computer, Captain. basically, if it moves down here, it will either try to eat you, squash you or simply kill you for the hel of it. The locals are primative by our standards, but some of them have magic so even they are a threat. Best advice is shoot first. Your guide will be a big help a nd Trassk has been down here before, so as long as he hasn't scrambled his brains too much, he should be a help too. by the way, has wallace found a way to keep is damned helmet on his head yet?" Schrader grinned. " Oh and I hope you don't have an issue with inhumans on your team."

Socrates cocked his head. "You expected no stress?" He says. "I think that metal went in too deep, sir."

Autumn instead of letting the rest pull her away pulls out her personal laptop and starts pulling up all the records she can about this Sergent known as Shep. Scanning his medical records she also tries not only to find out what is wrong, but perhaps a better means of managing the pain and dizziness.

" socrates, don't start with me or I'll take away your squeaky toy." shep grinned." The captain's brother is a close friend. In fact the reason I'm in her squad is because Tim asked me to watch out for her. Little did he know she'd grow up to make him look bad."
It took a little digging, but Autumn soon found W.O. Carson Trassk's medical file, and it was much longer than should be expected. the latest entry was for injuries due to near proximity to an IED, with severe concussion and metal fragments removed from his skull and neck. There was a gap and then his discharge was logged.

Stephens sits, back down while the doctor looks at her laptop. He shrugs and starts to familiarize himself with the creatures they may find along the way.

"All that aside, sir." Socrates says. "The threat level is astonishing on this mission. I would almost seem easier to fly into space than try this."

"Hmmm, not all the information is here. I am not used to being on this side of black ops stuff or security clearance. I guess I have that to look forward to being revoked as well." Autumn sighs aloud. "Well you know there may be something we can do for that if you want me to look you over before the mission. If not I may try to do it after!"

Sam nods as she listens to the Colonel's advice. "Thank you for that, sir." she says. "I'll use the downtime to review the information you have given me and discuss a point of insertion with Shep and marty once he arrives."
Smirking, she shakes her head and says "No, that's still a work in progress. Hopefully I'll be able to knock some sense into him before he loses his head." She doesn't mention Shep's confession of being claustrophobic as she figures it wasn't something that Shep would want to be common knowledge. Assuming the meeting is over, Sam will salute the Colonel and leave his office, computer in hand, looking to find Shep so they can go over the intel and decide on an insertion point.

Tori was tired of being ignored. Not only had her valid questions gone unanswered, but so had her request to fall out. She was starting to feel like the invisible cat. Even though her questions went ignored, somehow, the thought of being invisible to monkey-faces was not so bad. At any rate, she was ready to leave.
Whatever shape Trassk was in, pill-addled or still schwacked from his last mission, Tori's faith was gone. He should not be XO on this hop, but she wasn't going to voice any opinion on the matter.
"Come on Janxi, Richadson... Let's go get some ordinance. If lasers hurt dinos, then maybe we can cook 'em if we have enough C-4!"

Richardson nods and stands, "Doctor why don't we go get you another gun or two, you can check out Shep when we get back."
If the doctor looks up at him he gives her a small smile trying to show her, he was asking, not telling.

Socrates turns back the computer to Shep. "Do you know what the local colonel was offering the Captain?" He asks, it occurring to him she was gone for some time. He kind of hoped it would be more recent intel, or some direct route to the camp where Sam's brother was held.

Autumn closes up the laptop especially after hearing the word check him later. "Very well but I will expect time to check him out in a little bit." She puts it back in her bag and stands ready to go where she needs too.

Tori rose and grabbed her rifle on its sling. She slapped her eclip in first, chambered her AVON shell, safed her shotgun, then inserted her clip of shotgun shells. The last thing she did was pull on her boonie, short, pointed ears slipping through the dogholes.
Slipping on her amber wraparounds, she looked over at Richardson, the tip of her tail going from side to side. "Yeah man. We're oscar mike."

Socrates opted to stay and wait with Shep. "We can wait for you here." He says. He suspected Shep would eventually get bored sitting - typically more a man of action than not - and then anything goes, but for the time being it was better to wait. Besides, he can recalibrate his gear upon seeing what Sam had to say.
Meanwhile, he browsed Shep's dino fact sheets on his own datapad, looking for ways to repel them that didn't involve firearms or ways other humans could detect.
