Top Brass has officially ungrounded me and I am back in the fight! My grounding was extended by a week when she found the knife I had. We landed at the LZ at the park and I set my bluetooth speaker to play "War Pigs" by Black Sabbath. I went to work securing the area and doing sweeps around the areas I previously conquered. The bad guys attempted to reclaim several strategic points, but I managed to flush them out with a few grenades and a few shots with my trusty SMG. The civilians in the sandbox gave me funny looks, but hey, I'm fighting for their freedom to do that.

  After securing all the key points of the park, I looked once more at the fortress. It still stood with a full garrison of bad guys and after what happened to Travis, I did not want to risk trying to take it alone. Top Brass called me over because we had to leave early today anyway. I have an appointment scheduled to get my medication adjusted.
