(OOC: GPU Leadership, this post is for you.) The chess pieces were moving nicely into place on the board in the dangerous game of subterfuge. He called upon the three commando strike teams and Frank Jaeger. "Es ist zeit, meine brüder in den armen (It is time, my brothers in arms). Get geared up and ready, then meet me at the airport in the next hour." He stated as he began drain his mug of coffee, to which he prepared to clean his gear. ONE HOUR LATERJürgen drove to the airport in his business suit, accompanied by Hauptmann Jaeger close behind, and the three commando teams following him as well. After a moment, he headed to the Brussels airport to meet with the United States representative.
After a moment of looking, he turned to him and smiled, offering his hand to shake in greeting.
"Guten tag."

Jean took the hand and shook it, then beckoned the team over "VIP lounge is this way" then heading over to said lounge. Once inside, he turned back to the team, "This area's been checked for bugs and there's people outside to warn us if anyone else comes in, we can talk freely here, we won't be taking the flight we ostenably have tickets for, there's a Gulfstream waiting for us, act like rich kids and nobody will suspect a thing."

Jürgen, with Jaeger and the three commando teams followed Jean without question towards the VIP lounge. "Well, that's good, can't have others knowing what's going on, now can we?" Frank Jaeger asked jokingly. After a moment, Jürgen pulled out a map and placed it on the table, with a marker, and then looked to Jean. "So, I'm sure Mr. Kane informed you, so take this how you wish. Hauptmann Jaeger will be leading one of the three teams into the heart of Africa to get a sample of the toxin, and the other two will look through Central Africa to do the same. I only need one sample of it, but having three would be most beneficial if one or two get destroyed, lost or contaminated." He stated, circling Brussels first before circling all of Central Africa and the Congo. "The real problem lies in getting these Commandos and Jaeger there without aircraft being spotted. How would you go about doing that?"

Jean checked the map and nodded.
"For now, our objective is to get away from any prying eyes. Taking the jet to a MOB moving towards another operation and making our move from there allows us an element of surprise. A second team is to take the jet later towards the Panama canal, as part of this whole shell game.
Considering the situation and the GLA's rather primitive radar capability, a low-profile craft and a HALO drop should work.......if your team is up to it. Otherwise, the best option would be, depending on if we know where to hit or not, an aquatic landing or simple smash-and-grab".

"A HALO drop wouldn't be too different from a Fennek paradrop." one of the commando medics stated, having done so before.
"Though a simple smash-and-grab would raise the chances of us getting caught by seventy five percent. That's not something I'm willing to do if stealth and subterfuge is of the utmost importance. A better bet would be either aquatic entrance, or as you've stated, sir, a HALO drop." one of the tank buster commandos stated in conjunction.
"Though come to think of it, using another operation as a cover would be most beneficial, at least that way, the GLA will know that the US is there, but not anyone else." Frank Jaeger stated.
Jürgen listened to what the commandos and Jean stated before looking to both.
"It would be wise for one or two teams to do a HALO jump, the other team to do an aquatic entrance, just to be on the safe side." He stated before turning to Frank. "Remember Jaeger, this isn't a 'death-or-glory mission'. Stealth is of the utmost importance. And because of how dangerous this mission is, six months is more than enough time for you to make sure your cover isn't blown, find a bunker that holds the latest batch of Fear Toxin, get a sample and run out of there like a bat out of Hell to an evacuation zone."

"I hope you people know how to handle your own chutes." Jean noted, "We'll be dropping from as high as possible to as low as possible without popping chutes. Not exactly a smooth ride".
"In any case, once we have what we came for, then comes stage 2, extraction, that's when things get really messy, there's a few plans out for that, in any case, we have contacts within the GLA itself....lets just say Omar isn't quite as beloved by them as he claims, they still think of us as infidels, but omar is the devil, and the devil is the common enemy." Jean noted, "They'll help hide us while everything blows over, if need be.".

One of the two tank buster commandos nodded.
"Okay, sounds like a plan." Jaeger stated "In times like these, best to always have silent firepower." The commandos nodded as all of them drank the last of their coffee to stay awake for this mission. Jürgen then looked to the commandos and Frank. "All of you have your camouflage clothing for the Congo?" He asked. To which the commandos all nodded. "Good. Then I think they are ready." "You aren't joining us Kommandant?" Jaeger asked, raising an eyebrow. "Nein. Despite my experience, this is too risky for me to do. I have faith in you, therefore, I place this mission into your hands." Jürgen explained.

Jean stood up,
"Well, in that case, our flight's waiting, let's move" then motioned to them to get up. "We won't be taking the Airbus, those tickets are just a cover story, act like this is normal and follow me".
Meanwhile, informed workers on the ground crew moved the bags from the truck heading to the Airliner to a second one, where they loaded them onto a Bombardier Global 8000.
Just as the plane was finished loading, another vehicle, an apron bus bearing the Commando teams stopped next to the private jet's ramp.
Jean got off and gestured to the plane "Here's our ride, fancy thing isn't she?"

Jürgen Adler nodded, and pulled Frank Jaeger to the side. "What is it kommadant?" He asked. "I do hope this is the last time I send you on a mission like this Jaeger, but this must be said: "kommen mit den preis zurück, oder kommen nicht zurück überhaupt. (come back with the prize, or do not come back at all.)" This was the first time Jürgen had said something like this with such weight in his voice. To that, Jaeger pursed his lips and nodded solemnly. "Ja Kommandant, understood." From that, Jaeger followed as Jürgen departed back to his head quarters. When Jaeger got off, he smirked a bit and chuckled. "You Americans love pushing limits, don't you?"

"This one ain't even American, it's Canadian. We built that" Jean boasted. "Bombardier's Canadian, Gulfstream's American, in any case, lets get in" Jean made a face as he entered the overly-fancy interiors "Eh, these things are too soft, I'd sit in the seats in the front if I were you, the couch makes me feel like I'm sinking". "In any case, our gear should be here" Jean then motioned towards the various bags piled around the plane.

He gestured to the others to go before him. When he got to the last bag -his own-, he took the fabric handles and slung it over his shoulder, feeling the light metallic weight of his disassembled sniper-rifle inside. He smirked a bit before entering the plane. Frank Jaeger raised an eyebrow when Jean made a face. "Not used to luxury I take it? Can hardly blame you. Not everyone is into that."

"Eh, can't help that I'm used to a nice hard bed back home, Figure out the seatbelts and get buckled in, we're taking off soon." Jean replied before heading into the cockpit to tell the pilot and co-pilot the same thing.

Jaeger smiled a bit before bringing up a map that Jürgen gave him to recap the mission to his comrades in arms in German, making sure each one knew what was going to happen. "And remember, we need three in case this one," he stated, taking out the ball. "Gets broken." before putting it away. "If we succeed, we'll be one step closer to stopping Omar's weapon. If not, we'll need to get to safety, and if caught, we cannot allow ourselves to give up such vital information." He explains.

*TIMESKIP TO CRUISING ALTITUDE*.
Markus moved over to the fridge and pulled out a large bottle of beer, labelled "Lion Mountain". "For luck" he explained, offering glasses to the commandoes.

The Commandos perked up when they saw the beer being offered. Jaeger only smiled as all of them took a glass.
