Operation Chick

Operation Chick was an guerilla operation performed by the Finnish Ground Forces garrison group nicknamed Group Rooster. The Group was made in a hurry, to quickly form a team that could sabotage the Earth Alliance forces. The group's mission was to take the Base MORNING, which was garrisoned by militia soldiers, and also destroy all aircraft in the Airfield RICE.

Against all odds, the groups mission was not only a success, but a major success, as the group only suffered 3 casualties as opposed to at least 30 EA soldiers. The soldiers of the Rooster group became famous in the Finnish territories and infamous outside Finland.

The Group Rooster motto was: "Are we even trained for this?" The origin for this motto in unclear, but most likely came from the Medic Olavi, who sprouted this while rappeling down from the helicopter. This may have referenced the fact, that the troops were indeed just mere garrison forces and not elite guerilla soldiers.

Background
Whilst the Finnish elite units; Hidden Men, FROST, Savo Elite Division and Central Peace Unit were occupied in their cooperated offensive against the EA forces in Naples, the EA forces launched a massive amphibious landing into the island of Mecartes. The small 100 man Finnish garrison got almost wiped out leaving only 20 men alive. 7 of which were auxiliaries from Turkey. The 20 man force was very under-supplies, as the Finnish Army deems garrison troops "low-priority" and thus does not supply garrisons with good weapons, food or ammunition. The 20 man forces formed a small team which consisted of 4 men (4 in reserve so 8 combined) and gave these 4 men most of their available equipment. Most ammo, explosives, helmets, boots and medkits.

Order of Battle
These men were:
 * Sergeant Niilo: First-in-command.
 * Radio Operator Henrik: Second-in-command.
 * Medic Olavi: Maybe an untrained conscript.
 * Engineer Aarne: Armed with explosives.
