this roleplay can go many different ways

(the Americans did not get involved in the island war there were a few American mercenaries)

Hans: WHY DID WE SIGN UP FOR THIS
Ivan would be shooting at enemies with his rifle
Ivan: THEY PROMISED GOOD MONEY

(If your thinking this is the soviet union your wrong)

( I'm not, his name is just Ivan )

(Ok because every time I do the union roleplays people imminently think Russia)

Hans would sip from his canteen

(Btw can you please use the -> * <- because every time you do that it's confusing as hell) *Your both on a truck with about 25 other soldiers*

Hans: Hey Ivan, hand me the water.
* Ivan would hand him a water bottle *

Alex: what the hell happened here?

*Your riding in a truck with 25 other soldiers* Soldier 1: I have heard bad things about this place...
*you drive by a burning tank*

Alex: what bad things?

Soldier 2: I've heard rumors that this place is a gateway to hell...
Soldier 4: in the paper, I saw on just the first day of this battle half a million died
