One afternoon, a group of United States soldiers are walking through a hot sandstorm. This sandstorm is really difficult for them to walk through there and they have to cover their eyes, their mouth, and everything so sand won't get through their body parts. The captain is struggling and they help him going through this. "Oh man! I need a good beer right now!" Captain said, "It sucks!"

His witty and sense of humor brings them alive enough to fight through this, but another soldier is able to hearing the gunfire now and captain has to order them to get down. The gunfire is escalating. Captain uses his hand signal to command the Omega team send in there where the gunfire started. The Alpha team is with him.

They are walking and drinking some water. A female soldier can see a black figure out there. "Sir! I think there is a person out there! Maybe it's this man they saw." She said, "Let's get to him."
