BLACK OPS AIRSOFT: 2009 Operations

In 2009 the first official season of Black Ops Airsoft was under way.  On March 7th BOA held their first official skirmish.  From that date forward skirmishes were held on almost ever Saturday for the entire playing season.  Some of the Saturdays were closed to field use because the owners were busy getting the field ready for their first Operation.  A sandbag bunker was constructed using over 1000 sandbags to make,  An underground bunker to dugout and roofed.  The village was increased in size.  On May 30th 2009 Operation: Insertion, a Vietnam theme game, begdan with a bang.  Literally.  This was BOA’s first Op that they ever planned and hosted.  Over fifty players attended this operation.  Two more Vietnam theme ops were held throughout the year.  Operation: Clean Sweep and Iron Triangle finished off the Vietnam Theme games for the year.

The final operation of the year was Operation Hazardous Containment.  This was a special Halloween event and was not part of the Vietnam theme games.  This game was held during the later portion of the afternoon and went well into the night.  The theme of this operation was zombies. 

The following pages are detailed after action reports that players can read to see what has happened in previous games.

After the battle in Ia drang Valley the American Forces pushed further in land attempting to push the Vietcong out of area. Using Fire Base Charlie as their staging point the American's patrolled the roads and trails searching for the V.C. to regain control over the area.

The Vietcong had a strong presence in the area and ambushed the patrols. Fire Base Charlie was over run and the U.S. Commander was captured by the V.C. A rescue of the captured P.O.W. was made resulting in high casualties on both sides.
