Some static broke through their com's and a voice could finally be made out through their speakers and head sets. "This is Ghost checking in. I've established over watch on the mountain to your 4 o-clock. Break." he mentioned, a pause in radio chatter to prevent anyone from honing in on their signal and also letting the others listening know that he still had more to say. "I apologize if it appeared I abandoned you all, but I had to make sure you were as committed to this as I am. Over." he added. His scope made it possible to see the four of them down below, they were keyed up and ready to go. The base they were about to hit seemed fairly alert but still unaware of their location. He'd been at the mountain since before the sun came up, as any dedicated sniper would be. Josh was early. He glanced at his gauges and monitors, making sure everything was good to go. "Ghost is REDCON 1. Awaiting your signal." he finished up.
