Harry, Bruce,
Tony, and Sergeant Squires then discussed their plan, after all agreed which
tent was likely to contain Nuri Bekhit.
As all members of the combined team—which included another nine SAS
members, besides Sergeant Squires, started to close in—those four eased
forward, to the very edge of the camp.
Once there, they ordered their men to start systematically taking out
any men in sight. There were ten men
clearly in sight, and silenced shots hit all ten in a span of less than a
minute. But, as the entire team started
to close in on the camp, another man came out of a tent, saw his dead comrades,
and gave the alert—just before he too died.
Harry, Tony, and
Sergeant Squires hurried forward to the tent they felt sure would contain
Bekhit, while Bruce slowly walked to the middle of the camp with the other
members of the combined team, looking for possible targets.
As Harry, Tony,
and Sergeant Squires neared the targeted tent, three men ran out, with guns
raised. They all died before they could
fire. Harry took out the man on his
side, Tony took out the man in the middle, and Sergeant Squires downed the last
of the three. They walked forward, and
Tony swore as he looked down at the body of Nuri Bekhit.
Harry just
shrugged, “No chance of taking him alive, after that jackass gave the
alarm. So okay, we got a dead rooster,
let’s see what we can find in the way of intelligence in the tent, Tony,” as he
led the way into the tent.
Both
Tony and the Sergeant spoke Arabic, and laughed because ‘Nuri’ meant ‘rooster’
in Arabic.
