Devil's Brigade - WWII - IC

"No major inuries, people? Harrison, how you doing? That didn't look too pleasant on your landing. Do you need me to look at it or can you walk it off?"

Harrison walks carefully for the a few minutes, checking that his ankle can support his ‎weight. "I guess I'm fine. You know every time I have to jump of a plane ‎I wonder way I didn't join the Marines instead of this flying circus. I'm ‎sure the worst they have to do in an exercise is jump of a boat, wade a ‎few yards in shallow water and then they sit under a palm tree drinking ‎margaritas for the rest of the day."‎

Harris points out the parachute in case anyone else didn't see it. He felt strangely calm. Probably 'cause it's still just a training op. I suppose the real thing'll feel different, he thought.

Jim backs back to the tree trunk and starts climbing up to take a look in the direcction the rest of the team should have landed. He uses the binoculars and metodical spots after his friends he sits doing this a couple of ours taking a look at Nuemiller now and then.

Spot +15
Climb +2
Binoculars -1 every 50 feet

Tech/4 Jakobsen

You try to climb a little higher but you realize the tree will not support your weight. You use your binoculars to try and find the other team members. About 20 minutes later you see the others approaching. They are only 1/2 mile away when you spot them. They appear to be heading your direction. You figure they saw the parachute hanging in the tree.

Others

You slowly make your way to the parachute. After another few minutes you see Jakobsen in the tree. He appears to see you.

Hanging in the tree is a Nuemiller. He appears motionless and still attached to his parachute harness. He is hanging 30 feet of the ground, with his parachute and parachute cords are tangled severely.

After another few minutes you are next to the tree.

 

[Starman]

"Oh, great," Harris mutters, seeing Neumiller unconscious in the tree. "Hey, Jakobsen, can you get up to him?"

 

[Widowmaker]

Harris

Jakobsen is within reaching distance of Nuemiller.

 

[Lukeworm]

"Just "‎"Just the kind of troubles that jumping of a perfectly good airplane will get ‎you into." Harrison mumbles, just load enough to be heard. ‎

‎"Neumiller, see if you can tear the chute of those g!@#$%d branches. ‎We'll catch him when he falls. And someone should keep watch for ‎unfriendlies 'cause this sure can get noisy." ‎

With that said Harrison puts his pack and gun leaning on a nearby rock ‎and stands ready under Jakobsen.‎

 

[Drowned Hero]

‎"Neumiller, see if you can tear the chute of those g!@#$%d branches. ‎We'll catch him when he falls. ‎

'Hey man! he cant hear you, dont you see he is unconscious?' 'even if he could he just is to high i think to let him fall' Jim draws his knife and starts drawing himself out on the branch so he can cut just some few of the cords to see if he drops lower 'givme a sec and be ready to catch him'

 

[Starman]

"Catch him? He's thirty feet up!" Harris starts to hollar before catching himself and lowering his voice. He thinks for a second and then says, "What if we use our parachutes to catch him? We can stack a few of them and if we all take hold, we might be able to cushion his fall better than if we try catching him with our hands."
