Despite early morning rain, the members of ROGUE 5 took to the woods of Paintball Long Island for the second team trip of the year. Our gratitude and sincere thanks go out to all of the employees, Refs and managers who did everything they could to make sure a great day was had by all.
SEAL 45 managed to earn his second JAG award following the Fire Base Scenario, a Combat Cross for his efforts on the Walls field, and a Purple Heart for the shot he took to the neck while on the far side of the tape following his elimination.
MAD DOG 9 earned a Combat Cross for an aggressive assault on an enemy position while being pinned down by at least five gunners. His bold move resulted in a two person elimination from a grenade toss made while under heavy fire. He later went on to score several critical eliminations which allowed the team to follow through on its' push.
JACKAL 35 earned a Combat Cross for engaging in several No-Hope fire fights and winning. His aggressive and optimistic approach on the field gave the team a rather large advantage over the opposition. He also scored two grenade eliminations during the day.
BAT 21 had a challenge most of the day. The sniper team worked several scenarios and walked away with multiple eliminations and assist. During the Fire Base scenario, BAT 21 teamed up with WOLF 37 in the tower and was caught in an onslaught of paint while trying to defend the south side of the base.
WOLF 37 kept the opposition guessing throughout most of the game. Between playing through several rounds without paint and air, he still managed to fill in with the assist, cover, and occasional grenade. While on the field he scored several eliminations, including a direct attack on the Fire Base which resulted in four eliminations, and the take-over of one bunker box.
Thanks to everyone who came out in the rain and stuck in there till the sun came out - you all made it a great day for the team and we look forwards to seeing you all out there again.
