3. EXECUTION.
a. Concept of Operations.

LEGION will be tasked with reaching the consulate (OBJ WALLEYE) in the city of Bala Murghab and extracting the Ambassador, the MESG, and any US citizens in the complex. Drone footage has revealed a heavy hostile presence in the city, but they also appear to be going door-to-door looking for civilians. We have recorded several executions by these forces. The status of the nearby military base is unknown as to whether they are loyalist or rebel forces, caution is advised.
