soldier of fortune

1 year as a cop, 2 years as SWAT, 5 years in the Army, 3 of those as special forces. You're good, damn good, but you feel like you could be making more, and you chafe under the brass; they don't know what it's like to be a boot on the ground, don't understand that their men aren't pieces to be moved. So you take your talents elsewhere next time your contract comes up, somewhere where you can actually set the terms of your contract. Private military corporations. Mercenaries, soldiers of fortune. A deployment to Africa - some warlord wants some extra 'protection and security' for his next war. But things go bad. Real bad. You're surrounded on all sides, no cape support, no air support, and the word comes down that there's no extraction: corporate has decided you're not worth it. Mortars and bullets flying all around, you trigger as you realize you've traded being sacrificed for honor and duty for being sacrificed for the bottom line.
