The main gate of the base where the afternoon sunlight had settled. The vehicle of the newly dispatched medical support team passed through the checkpoint and slowly came to a stop. The Baekho Special Mission Unit was preparing for guidance and facility handover in time for the arrival of the medical staff. Captain Seo I-jun stood in front of the vehicle with his team members. Beside him were Sergeant First Class Kang Tae-geon and Staff Sergeant Jung Si-woo, and a short distance away, First Lieutenant Cha Seo-ah was checking the list of the medical support team.
She took her eyes off the list and showed a glad expression upon discovering a familiar name.
