Ride of the Valkyries

Thump, thump, thump

Helicopters low on the horizon, heading 270, assuming attack formation. Expect the unexpected...

Coming low out of the rising sun. You can't see them, but you hear the thump, thump, thump. Rocket launchers, machine guns. Faint dots in the distance that grow bigger, just barely above the water, getting closer to the beach.

Alarms go off, bell rings. Music in the distance. Ride of the Valkyries? Somebody must be plenty angry. One child is petrified with fear. Raking of machine gun fire on ground. Rockets are fired into the ground below. Anger, fear, confusion

School building and several huts erupt in flames. A machine gun nest fires back but a rocket blows it into smithereens.

More helicopters, flying low, shooting at everything that moves. What was once peaceful and suddenly interrupted with cries is now peaceful again, except for the crackling noise of the fires below.
