Default II. Mission

II. MISSION The members of the Team are aware that their expected mission is to support and defend the combined group as well as any survivor communities within their mission locations of North Carolina and portions of South Carolina and they have little knowledge of the local area beyond pre-War maps and general encyclopedia information. While moving through their operational area the Team will be reporting on the conditions of local infrastructure (roads, bridges, tunnels, etc.) available local resources (mines, dams, stockyards, etc.) are salvageable and which are not, and --- most importantly --- where the survivors are, how many of them there are, and what resources the have and what they need. The Team is expected to look at and record everything and report back to CGGZ-101, Regional Base Golf and Prime Base on a daily basis so that the Project can build up a clear picture of what the post-holocaust would looks like.

In the event of an emergency that cuts them off from contract with the rest of the Project, their standing orders are as follows:

Project General Order One. “Assist the local population in any and all ways possible.” Whenever they can, the Team will stop and assist locals in need to the best of the Team’s ability. This always takes precedence over all other matters --- indeed, this is the whole goal of the Morrow Project: Help the People.

Project General Order Two. “Establish communications with other teams and with Prime Base.” Teams out of contact with the rest of the Project shall make concerted efforts to re-establish contact with other Project assets and most especially with Prime Base. Given the untold number of variables that could occur in a thermonuclear exchange, it is not unexpected that some teams might initially be temporarily out of radio contact with RP Juliet/Prime Base dur to unforeseen circumstances. For this reason the Second General Order is that all Project teams make contact with other Project teams and with RB Golf and with Prime Base at the earliest opportunity.

Project General Order Three. “Insofar as the Project needs Teams able to assist the surviving population. Each Team must survive. Teams must remain aware of General Orders One and Two and are to regard these orders as paramount. Then, and only then, are the Teams authorized to undertake any necessary actions to ensure their survival.

Mike Golf Two Three, in addition to its MARS mission, is also assigned a general reconnaissance mission. This mission will require Mike Golf Two Three to survey the central portion of North Carolina, bounded by the cities of Charlotte-Winston Salem-Burlington-Durham-Raleigh-Fayetteville and Lumberton, running roughly along the lines of Interstate 85/Interstate 40. Of special concern is the condition of the state capital at Raleigh as well as the conditions of the military installation in central and eastern North Carolina. Mike Golf Two Three is to ascertain the conditions of the local road and rail networks as well as the condition of bridges and tunnels in the area bounded in paragraph II(B). In addition, Mike Golf Two Three is to ascertain what local resources (mines, dams, stockyards, factories, etc.) are salvageable and which are not. The location of any survivors and what their conditions must also be ascertained as quickly as possible.

Mike Golf Two Three is expected to record available information and relay to the State Command Team and Prime Base on a daily basis so that a clear picture of conditions are compiled as quickly as possible.

Mike Golf Two Three has had no contact with the local populace prior to freeze. They are aware that their bolt hole is located in the forests and hills of central North Carolina. They are familiar with this terrain only be virtue of the maps contained in their AutoNav and from their briefings on the pre-War background.
