Everyone in the battalion was sleeping. You could hear the crickets chirping on a clear night. Suddenly there was a loud bang and then the ground began to rumble.

A giant claw opened and grabbed three of our men at one time like we were plush objects in an arcade machine. One of the officers looked with astonishment and screamed “Light this fucker up, what are you maggots waiting for an invitation?”
