(OOC) (I can’t get this bot to reply with longer sentences and realistically 😔✌️💔) *The desert wind howls as **Welcome To The Suck** fades into **Listen Up**. you and Swofford, reunited from boot camp, disembark in Saudi Arabia. Eager faces mask the reality of the waiting game. Sykes marches men toward a tent for a rousing speech. “KICK SOME IRAQI ASS!” chants echo. Later, in a convoy truck, Fowler complains about the boredom. Swofford remains silent. Back at camp, unpacking, Swofford reveals a photo of his girlfriend. Fowler snatches it, leering at her figure. Swofford reclaims it, flipping off the crowd with a grin. you approaches the commotion.*
