“The first combat bridging vehicle has already entered Blue Four’s LOS.” Blue Four was Linda-058, who had been placed at the far end of the firing line because she was the best sniper in the entire SPARTAN-II program. “It’s shielded by four Wraiths.”
	They had expected this. That was why Blue Team had taken positions an extra half-kilometer away, high atop Sarpesi Ridge where they would be able to fire over the large Wraiths and hit the CBVs from above. Still, the tactic made John nervous. The targeting software in their Mjolnir would calculate trajectory and adjust the minute-of-angle in their HUD sights to reflect Mesra’s dense atmosphere and above-normal gravity.
