26 August 2011:  Glorious victory for our valorous Uradeln guardsmen!  Alpha Company, 3^rd Battalion, under Captain Kipton Burba smashed the Chaos foe on the outskirts of Targaryen Hive, preventing the Enemy relief force from making any headway.  The Enemy attempted to roll over our stalwart infantry using their infernal metal boxes, and Commissar Medovich momentarily lost control over 2^nd Platoon (HUG) on the left flank, despite executing a sergeant on the spot in an attempt to maintain discipline.  Fortunately, Captain Burba intervened and ordered them back into the fight, and this time the men did their duty and charged into close combat and slaughtered the traitor Astartes to the last man, though not in time to save their platoon leader, Lieutenant Swanson, who died heroically.  Meanwhile, 3^rd Platoon (HUG) under Lieutenant Sibel, fought a frenzied battle in the center.  All of the men died but their sacrifice prevented the enemy from reaching our armor, artillery, and command units.  Our vehicles and flying machines destroyed all of the foe’s metal boxes and laid waste to the enemy infantry.  Victory for Uradel and for the Imperium!
