Strike operations continue against the airbase under construction on enemy-held ROTA island. Intel believes the airfield is close to operational status.
Our strike yesterday was successful in suppressing the one known SAM site, but it was not knocked out. Iron Hand elements will be tasked with hitting that site again, in conjunction with an alpha strike against the airfield.
Bon Homme Richard (CV-31), steaming northwest of the target, is sending the alpha strike. You will lead the final element of the strike. Your job is to put craters in that runway. We're depending on you to keep the enemy on the ground.
USS Forrestal (CV59) will send flakbusters and Iron Hand elements from the southeast.
Fly smart, do damage, and try not to get yourself shot up.
See you back at the boat.
