Ghost Recon Base One

The entire Marine One base was closed on full security Zebra one lockdown. The off duty Marines were called in for security force service immediately. The Marine One hybrid medics were there and waited to do a full medical workup on baby Star Gazer. It was a very excited and very tense four-hour wait before the call came in. That Air Force One was in final descent inbound runway one standby to receive baby Star Gazer. The entire Marine Force One was in presence, waiting to receive Star Gazer’s full hybrid medical retrieval unit in rank on the runway by the airport’s back door, of door one. The hybrid medical Hummer was parked and idling, and the back door was open to receive baby Star Gazer.

Air Force One landed and hit the brakes and rolled to close stop by the Marine One hybrid medical team and Hummer. The Force One Marines rushed the ladder up to the plane door and rushed in. They picked Star Gazer up and rushed him to the Marine hybrid medical Hummer. They strapped Star Gazer down on a stretcher, loaded him in the back of the Hummer, and rushed him to the hybrid medical center on the Marine base. The medical center was on full alert that Star Gazer was coming in code one medical alert. The medical Hummer raced across the base lights flashing and sirens on. The hybrid medics were preparing Star Gazer for treatment during this high-speed medical transport.

The Hummer came racing into the parking lot, tires smoking and squealing, and the Hummer slid sideways to a stop. Star Gazer was pulled out and rushed into the hybrid medical suite one for any treatments he may need. Star Gazer’s pulse was very low, and he was having a hard time catching his breath. He was listed in critical condition until further notice. The medics got Star Gazer stabilized with several hybrid injections, and he was groggy and in and out of consciousness. The medics gave him full-body x-rays and CAT scans to see if he was internally all right. He passed the test okay—no seen problems. They rolled Star Gazer back to his hybrid medical suite and watched closely as he slept soundly.
