After yesterday’s excitement in Engineering everyone was hoping for a smooth weapons test. Everyone was their station, Lt. Colonel House and Major Tso, as well as Major Wakowski were on the bridge. The PJ’s had finished prepping the drones earlier in the morning and loaded them into the catapult in the landing bay. Major Wakowski was running his last diagnostic’s on the weapons and tracking system to ensure everything was in working order, Elle had already reported that she was able to repair the tampered software in the weapons tracking array. Everything was good to go.
“How’s it looking Major?” Lt. Colonel asked Major Wakowski.
“Looks like we are on track, we can start the exercise you’re ready.”
Lt. Colonel House announced over the communications

He calculated a firing solution, fire and missed; the drones moved to the portside of the ship and began to fire. Major Tso reacted quickly, “Elle, damage report?”
“Left side stabilizers have been hit and damaged, they are eighty-seven percent functional.” Elle reported.
Major Wakowski calculated another firing solution, fired with the photon canon and destroy one of the drones. The free drone began to zigzag while firing the on the Gettysburg, there was something different about this drone. Elle reported, “Shields down five percent.”
“Thank you Elle.” Major Tso

How’s it hanging?” Major Wakowski spoke into the comm unit.
“You officers always calling us NCO’s to bail your asses out! Let’s get to work gentlemen.”
Major Tso took his seat next to Marybeth, “It’s time to stop being a sitting duck, lets getting to moving and groving!” Major Tso said to Marybeth.
She smiled at that, “Let’s Major, let’s..it’s time to dance.”
The Gettysburg took off from zero to mach three in seconds, for the most part leaving the drones behind, but they were quickly back on her. There was a lot of discussion between Major Wakowski and Smith. “I’ve got a firing solution.” Senior Master Sergeant Smith reported.
“Fire, fire! You don’t have to wait for permiss…” Major Wakowki was saying, but before he ended another drone went up in smoke.
“That’s some good shoot’in Smith.” Marybeth happily said.
“Ok, boys and girls we got one more to go.” Major Tso
Two visits with James Rusk, and his paramour Sherri Heath were held on February 2, 2017 and February 7, 2017. Both visits took place at James’s residence located at 750 East 22nd Street, Erie, Pennsylvania. Mr. Rusk’s home is an apartment complex. Mr. Rusk lives in an apartment downstairs, while his brother Carl Hannah lives in the upper level of the apartment.
“Acknowledged. Delta get ready we’re almost at the LZ!” Rex ordered. His squad jumped up and grabbed their gear which was spread across the ship. They all checked the power on their weapons and checked the communication links between their
Mr. Womack shared that he is working with ex-felons who are unable to obtain employment and/or housing and would like to see this situation improved.
The Americans fired back and advanced. The US left line was ordered back to secure the flank, and an 18-pound cannon dispersed the Mexican cavalry, which, in response, turned to the right, seemingly to threaten the flank or to attempt to take the supply train. The infantry sprang into action to make contact with the enemy cavalry, supported by the “Flying Artillery,” and was able to halt the immediate attack. During the cannon bombardment, a portion of the prairie caught fire and the smoke concealed the armies from each other. While waiting for the smoke to clear, the US 18-pound cannons had been moved forward to the road that the Mexican cavalry had once occupied. The Mexican Army also repositioned. After about an hour the smoke cleared, and the artillery commenced again. From its new position, the Americans created openings in the Mexican line of infantry. A squadron of dragoons were ordered to the left of the Mexican Army’s line but suffered from artillery fire as they moved forward. The US 4th Infantry was exposed to a significant barrage of cannon fire as they supported the two 18-pound cannons, and several men were killed or wounded. It was then that the Mexican cavalry began an advance on the right flank. As they got close, the infantry squared up a formation to interrupt their advance and a brisk fire of small arms began. The well-directed volley from the front of the line silenced all further firing from the cavalry. Frustrated, the Mexican Army began an attempt to flank the left of the US line. Bold and brilliant maneuvering of a battery quickly repulsed the enemy, who then retreated back to their original position. As a squadron of dragoons moved to assist the left flank, they gradually drove the Mexican Army back, and the enemy had a significant loss from the field. As night began to fall, the firing ceased and the Mexican Army fell back behind their positions and the
Around noon, Union and Confederate cavalry troops battled three miles east of Gettysburg but Stuart was eventually repulsed by cannon fire led in part by Gen. George Custer and the Union Cavalry. The diversion attempt failed. Back at the main battle site, just after 1 p.m. about 170 Confederate cannons opened fire on the Union position on Cemetery Ridge to pave the way for the Rebel Charge. This was the heaviest artillery barrage of the war. The Federals returned heavy cannon fire and soon the battlefield was covered in smoke and dust. Around 2:30 p.m. the Federals slowed their rate of fire, then stopped firing, to conserve ammunition and to fool the Rebels into thinking the cannons were knocked out-and that's exactly what the Rebels thought too. But as the Rebels got within range, Federal cannons opened fire using grapeshot which is a shell containing iron balls that flew apart when fired, and they also used deadly waves of rifle fire. Soon the Rebel army was torn apart but they still moved forward. Pickett’s charge was almost more after the once majestic army of 13,000 had its numbers of troops dwindle.. The Rebels still move forward, shooting then charging with bayonets. The battle lasted for about an hour mostly of hand-to-hand combat. Finally what was left of Pickett’s charge (5,500) retreated. Lee admitted this was his mistake and the tide of war now turned in the North’s favor. The Union lost (either dead, wounded, or missing) about 23,000, and the Confederates lost about
On the last and final day of the endless firing of the Gettysburg Battle, Pickett’s Charge began when Union Major General George Meade with his 6,500 men was facing 15,000 Confederate troops led by General Pickett. This happened because General Robert E. Lee thought he had weakened the first lines in the center and started to bombard them with 150 Confederate cannons, the largest amount ever assembled in the U.S. In reply, the Union sent 75 cannons back until ordered to cease fire. Fortunately, most of the South cannons overshot their targets and hence gave little damage to the North
As Henry and all other pilots entered the Cat-1 and 6 the crafts, all crafts level back to form a single line group head to head with the twenty five US crafts. Their queue order is Cat-4 in the lead, second is Cat-5, third is David's Cat-1, forth is Henry's Cat-6 and the last is Cat-10. Henry tells Gary and the Cat-10 pilot the plan in detail. Then he logs in the US satellite to look closer to the twenty five US crafts which are in a “v” shape format, and he also knows they're the Mouse type crafts, stealth and faster than David's mid-sized ships, but the number of artillery for each Mouse craft is lesser. Most of all the combat must be earlier than expected because of the Mouse crafts' speed. But suddenly the satellite screen cuts off, Henry hacks in the Chinese satellites, although it's from different angle, it's better than none; it might be the US Forces taken back all the monitoring system and reset the passwords. The Chinese Army discovers the hacking and informs Major General Yuen who still stations in Sihanoukville Port Cambodia, they know the source and check it out through satellite
“I fired on 7 machines on the aerodrome, some of which had their engines running. One of them took off and I fired 15 rounds at him from close range 60 ft. up and he crashed. A second one taking off, I opened fire and fired 30 rounds at 150 yds, range, he crashed into a tree. Two more were then taking off together.I climbed and engaged one at [less than] 1,000' finishing my drum, and he crashed 300 yds. from the aerodrome. I changed drums and climbed E.A fourth H.

Cwiklinski has a past of local mishandle. In November 2015, he was accused of straightforward strike and badgering after he professedly swung a pack of stock, hitting Sabae in the eye with it.
On April 30, 2017 at approximately 0226 hours, I responded to 136 Mobile Avenue, Altamonte Springs, Seminole County in reference to a battery. Upon arrival I made contact with victim William Mierzwak, who provided me with a sworn written statement.
The missile system reduced Scud annoyance and effectiveness. Patriot’s mission to counteract air born threats was an overall success. This war was a major demonstration of U.S. air defense capability. Although every fire did not successfully destroy its target, it exemplified extraordinary accuracy. The Patriot world is continuously evolving. Modifications to the software has been made, and today’s system has multiple intercept mechanisms. PAC 2 in no longer the only source of air defense capability. The PAC 3, a more sophisticated missile defense system, has a more accurate interception rate. A growing technology, and it will continue to expand in the future, air defense is here to
Somehow, the enemy team got to the payload with 5 seconds left on the clock. We were going to lose. Suddenly, I heard our D.Va shout out, “NERF THIS!!!” The entire enemy team was eliminated and we won the
After them!” And the chase was on. The Zarkians has a disarm laser, so they tried to fire it at the TEC. The captain was smart enough to swerve the cruiser away from a bright red disarm laser beam fired from a disarm laser cannon. But all the swerving caused turbulence knocking two cadets unconscious. The aliens fired again. The laser was meant to be aimed at the cruiser, but it had a hacked circuit board, went haywire and ended up firing at planet J-x6B9. It was full of docile aliens. It hit an alien secret base, and in no time at all the docile alien agents fired back with their ion cannon. The green bolt of ion went into the ink black space. It hit a hostile Zarkian pod and it plunged into J-X6B9’s moon, D-R8. Unfortunately, it was empty so it didn’t provide much strategic advantage to the T.E.C. cruiser. The docile aliens fired again; this time it was fired hastily at a GPS bulb on the top of the alien gunship and. . . . It was a hit! The TEC crew and cadets were happy with glee, and seized the opportunity to fire back at the gunship. The bolt hit an engine and stunned it. The Zarkians span around to retaliate, but it was too late. Their ship began plunging toward a gas
Zelmo counted in his head. "What do you think fell down, huh?'' Zelmo scoped out the room, searching for the quickest exit. "Zelmo... are you even listening?" Luxin was starting to get frustrated.
He walked up the stairs, my barrel resting in his sweaty palm. His hand closed in around the doorknob and the door swung open and he laid me softly on the rough wool sheets that rested on his bead. And there I sat, waiting patiently for when my use was needed. In the middle of the night Davy sat erect and grabbed hold of me. He cycled my lever causing my inner workings to chamber a bullet. He remained seated and began to stare at the door. The door handle clicked and turned briefly to the left before the door flew open. The lights flicked on and illuminated Tommy Basca and Israel Finch standing in the empty doorway. Israel held a large wooden bat menacingly and began to advance towards Davy. Without hesitation, Davy pulled my stock up to his cheek and flipped up my rear sight. His cheek was cold and smooth, but that cold was quickly replaced by a flash of heat inside of me as Davy pulled the trigger. Almost instantaneously my firing pin surged forward and ignited the spark that would send the first bullet flying. Flames erupted from my muzzle and the first bullet was released. This bullet was on a direct path to Israel’s forehead. Davy worked my lever and chambered another bullet. He adjusted his aim so that
