Yes please. I think some of the guys are working on a Balkans terrain, so this will fit right in. Also, we can do some screenies for Wrench's Movie Madness thread!

Hi Eric, welcome home, and loving the new skins. I may be misremembering, but did you once post a WIP of an F/A-18F skin from Behind Enemy Lines? It's been a while since I saw the movie but think it had an NJ tailcode. No idea what the squadron was, but I'm guessing it wasn't one that actually flew over Bosnia?

As the sun began to set the SEAL Team leader reviewed the intel package.. A week ago an aid convoy heading for the remote villages near the Sudan border lost contact. Of course search parties were launched to find them. 48 hours ago a French C-160 on an aid drop flight spotted the convoy halted well off their route and called it in. The convoy consists of trucks carrying food and medical supplies, a portable clinic constructed from shipping containers, and a number of international doctors, nurses and aid workers, including 5 Americans. As suspected, the convoy was being held by Sudanese backed militia. It would be dark by the time the SEALs arrived at Gondar. They would head straight into the mission planning cell and get together with the Marines to plan a rescue that could be launched as soon as possible.. Sure enough, by morning the various elements were ready to go.. A KC-130 lifts off carrying the SEALs.. Marine helos launch... A blocking force of Marines, including Humvees and LAV-25s will be inserted between the convoy and the border to prevent the militia escaping with hostages... And the F/A-18Ds of VMFA(AW)- 533 are tasked to provide recon, CAS and CAP for the operation.. The KC-130's track takes it far enough from the convoy that it won't be noticed, but close enough that the SEALs can cover the distance comfortably and it's time to jump... To be continued...

Remember that MiG-29 that lived to fight another day? The next day he never made it home... Neither did his wingman..
