The briefing had ended, and Operation: Lynx had begun. The admiralty had been sure to pick only their best troops for this operation - operating off two carriers the small elite force of Royal Marines, around 120 men. They all knew what was planned - drop outside Saint Georges via Chinook insertion helicopter and capture the king of Grenada.
Since Grenada had no standing military, in fact, no military at all, the invasion would be swift and would hopefully involve no casualties.
The two chinooks, braving stormy weather, flying at around 15,000 feet, descending on the outskirts of Saint Georges and dropped their deadly cargo. The Chinooks returned to the carriers, and loaded up with more Marines would be ready to land on a pin drop.
The groups split up into groups of four - 30 a group. From that they operated in fives, working their way silently down the streets of Saint George. They reached what was marked sketchily on the map of the palace, and it was easily noticable. A group, around thirty marines went into the palace grounds, while the rest, camoflauged and hid themselves around the palace perimeter.
Private Collins loaded his tranquillizer, slid the rifle into his shoulder and fired at the palace guard. These were good guns. He could barely hear his teammates shots either. The guards fell dead, and they advanced into the palace.

We have startling news today, as in sudden moves the Constitutional Monarchy of Grenada surrendered its sovereignty to The United Kingdoms of Hogsweat. The Prime Minister, Mark Brown, has spoken about the situation.
Down stands on the podium, coughs and starts to speak
"We will accept the gracious handover of Sovereignty, and later I fly to Grenada to speak with their secretary of state. I must say, that we wish in the best interests of their nation, therefore leaving their constituttional monarchy in place"
There is some general clapping, and Brown stands down from the podium
Operating from the same carriers, a small base is established with living space for around 300 royal marines, and a helipad for two Sea Lynx's and two Chinooks.
