[MSgt Falconer]

WARNING ORDER
MSOT 8312 VIKING

 

SITUATION: Moroccan forces have made good progress against Algerian forces in the Dariya region. The capture of OBJ TATOOINE and subsequent Moroccan breakthrough has unhinged the entire Algerian defensive posture in the AO. The Algerian 40th Division is in shambles but pockets of resistance remain and the Moroccan forces have paused in order to reorganize and bring up additional units. 3d MRB A Co. remains deployed at the tip of the Moroccan spear providing critical SOF capabilities.
 

ENEMY: The main OPFOR in this AO remains the Algerian 40th Division. This division has been heavily atrited in the recent fighting and in reality amounts to nothing more than Brigade strength across the AO
The 40th Division is also badly organized and appears to be suffering from significant communication problems.
The 40th Division has been broken up into several smaller pockets of resistance.

Garrison at OBJ ARGENT is expected below platoon strenght. Total strenght underground is unknown, proceed with caution.
