: : : : : : : Traveling down to the Marine area aboard the ship, Rath knew that his teams would be called in to action. And having fought alongside the Romulans and Remans during the Dominion war, it wasn't something he was about to relish. He knew that 'he' held an advantage that few could overcome in a fight, but many others under his command didn't.
: : : : : : :
: : : : : : : Before calling the heads of his teams in to be briefed, Rath stopped at his office, and placed a call in to the Major General. He needed to know who was going to be in overall command of the Marines before giving out orders. 9 times out of 10, knowing the Chain of Command had saved more men than simply acting alone.
: : : : : : :
: : : : : : : -Major Nor
: : : : : :
: : : : Orders came back a few moments later that the CoC went through the CO of the ship.
: : : :
: : : : OOC: i assume thats what you were looking for not sure what else you meant sorry.
: :
: : OOC: Chain of Command within the Marines since there will be more than one platoon/division assigned while on the ground.

: : : : : : There was a knock at the door, with the young Corporal Pegasus stepping around and presenting a cup of coffee towards the Major. He nodded slowly towards the man "Sir.. anything else I might get you?"

: : : : : : Cprl Pegasus
: : : : : :
: : : : : : ((OOC Lol dont mind me.. Im just an orderly right now :-) fetch coffee... get bacon sandwhiches... that sort of thing))
: : : : :
: : : : : "Thank you, Corporal." Rath replied, "Have O&E go over the armor again. And have them double check the environmental seals."
: : : : :
: : : : : Sometimes, he hated the red tape that was involved with talking to the higher ups.
: : : : :
: : : : : OOC: Tag for the GM
: : : : :
: : : : : -Major Nor
: : :
: : : "Yes sir.. already been done... the seal on number two armour is still out by about a point four of a micron but the engineers seem happy with it.. I was going to ask 2nd Squad to get someone rated to go over it.. Marines only as good as their gear.. "
: : :
: : : Pegasus, Marine
: :
: : OOC: Only one platoon aboard. Edited to reflect 2nd Squad.
: :
: : "Agreed." Rath replied, "Good thinking on getting one of our personnel to check on it."

: : -Major Nor

: OOC cheers

: IC "Ill get right on that boss... anything else that you might need to run on?.."

: Pegasus, Marine

A short while later, after the Atlantis had arrived at the merchant station, Steven along with the other marines were in the locker room checking their equipment. They were on readiness alert, but at this time hadn't been dispatched. This was the worst part of any mission. The waiting, but not yet actually having an assignment...
