1414: Finally received notification of favorable weather conditions for execution of GLORIOUS LAWNBOY.

1425: Assembled Mechanized Infantry forces on periphery of Combat Theater 1 (front portion of Maximus HQ). Equipment included one (1) Craftsman 6.6hp manually propelled rotary death-scythe and various hand weapons. Initial sortie to be conducted by decorated combat officer R.Maximus and support engineer M.Maximus.

1427: Upon ignition sequence of main engine on death-scythe noted looseness of refilling lid on ventral non-gelatinized napalm holding tank. Did not anticipate immediate failure; decided to monitor its condition.

1428: Conducted stealth attack on Combat Theater 1. Ground troops did not know what hit them.

1450: Upon clearing the area of hostile forces, stopped for hydration.

1455: Assembled Mechanized Infantry on periphery of Combat Theater 2 (rear portion of Maximus HQ).

1500 (est): Enemy snipers managed a direct blow to ventral non-gelatinized napalm storage tank, causing refill-lid to ricochet beneath rotary death-scythe. Retreat to safe zone was ordered, and support engineer M.Maximus consulted as to feasibility of field repairs.

1510: Support engineer devised temporary replacement cap from aluminum foil and rubber bands.

1511: Catching the enemy by surprise via rapid return to battlefield, much destruction visited upon ground troops and insurgent brambles and Ivy. Victory was surely in sight!

1515 (est): Enemy detonated an IEHD (Improvised Extra-Heavy Device) beneath death-scythe resulting in shrapnel and superficial injuries to R.Maximus. While further combat operations were theoretically possible, due to the imbalance of bent blade it was determined tactical retreat to be the most prudent option.

SUMMARY & RECOMMENDATION: Mission incomplete. Insurgency will surely grow and spread if not addressed quickly, especially in the shadow of perceived humiliating defeat. Recommend tactical nuclear strike from orbit.

I'll recommend support engineer M.Maximus for accommodation.  Good job repairing the weapon on the battlefield under enemy fire.

Congratulations soldier, you successfully defended Maximus HQ.  Stay vigilant fighting the enemy.  

Request for Nuke strike denied.  Request will be reassessed after repairs and report from next strike.

That is all Commander. Carry on.
