Operation Lost Winds

DISCLAIMER:
    This is a ONE-LIFE event.  This is to make the operation more challenging and potentially creating a slower pace.  Additionally, due to the nature of the event, there will not be a set end-time.  The end-time will be when the BLUFOR commander calls off the event.  This could be due to low numbers to complete the objective, low supply, or other factors.  These missions are designed to be difficult and unforgiving.  However, it is recognized that we are still playing ARMA and there is always a potential for getting ARMA’d.  If in the event you die or disconnect, that will not count towards your one-life rule.

Lastly, this is a PvEvP event.  The emphasis on the final (P) is very light and they will be used at the OPFOR commanders discretion for reconnaissance purposes, force multiplier purposes, or logistical purposes.  It should be noted that this is not inherently a PvP event and the major focus is still on PvE and RTS.

Situation
    V1/8 has been on standby during the 24th MEU rotation in the area near the coast of Spain.  An immediate emergency was called upon by the occupants of an embassy in the Serhiivka region, near the Northeast area of Romania.  The occupants inside the embassy have announced that there is a Russian invasion currently firing upon the Serhiivka airfield.  Furthermore, the Russians have been tipped off by local forces identifying that the Russians have encamped in multiple places throughout the region.  It is likely that this has been a planned event long in the works by Russian forces.

 

Mission
    It is the mission of V1/8 to help evacuate any U.S. citizens.  Additionally, it is imperative that the airfield is reopened in order to quickly move supply into, and out of, the area.  The Marines of V1/8 will be quickly deployed to conduct combative and humanitarian operations in the region of Serhiivka.

 

Highers Mission: 
    It is the mission of higher command, to fully evacuate any U.S. citizens and re-establish a logistical line at the Serhiivka airport.

Enemy Key Strength:

Scheme of Maneuver

Just Mind-splatter /  Spit-balling here:

It being a Public Op is a really big recruitment opportunity!
We should try as individuals to recruit our 'out of unit friends' and their friends.

Spoiler

and if we can should utilize the units Media's when possible for this. 
Examples include: (but not limited to) YouTube 'short'/explanation video, Public Server Bio/Name Advertisement, Social Media postings, and possibly Open Server at time of event to encourage people joining Op by "happenstance."
Again just spit-balling, but do let me know if there is anything I can do to help.
I remember fondly the days of frequent fun ops!
