"General Li, welcome to Chumning. I know you want to get down to business, so let me tell you what we've done and what information we have so far that we feel is credible. Oh, yeah, Warta Endor is also sending their men in as well, so we can all take "turns" in the interrogation cycle of these idiotic Cult of Barney (CoB) members.

First, we have allowed them only 3 hours of sleep in each 24 hour period. It keeps them tired, but not so sleep deprived they have become psychotic or delusional. Just enough sleep deprivation to keep them from being fully resistant. Second, when they are awake, but not being interrogated, but are merely in a cell, we have played AC/DC, Led Zepplin and Judas Priest music at 90 dB constantly which keeps them disoriented. Third, we have use the standard Sodium Pentathol and related drugs during interrogation sessions and also tried using "calming music," such as Pink Floyd and Simon & Garfunkel tunes, during interrogation sessions to relax them. We have also used the "good cop/bad cop" method and related questioning tehcniques. Please understand, we don't know what you intend and we don't want to know. We're just informing you of the basic techniques for interrogation used so far. We have found, I would note, that physical pain based techniques are of small use - Apparently the CoB training and indoctrination delves deep into the idea that pain is the mind killer and the "little death" that impairs reason. For that, I must say I personally respect them. On the other hand, the peaceful calm, "I love you, you love me" attitude can be tapped into and once entered, the prisoner has a difficult time in maintaining control.

As far as information developed goes: These guys do not know the location of the Carrier and 2 subs that the CoB has under their control - we feel confident in that. In Laos and Cambodia and possibly Vietnam proper, we have identified at least 4 operational bases though, with as many as 31 Appache and/or Blackhawk choppers total, fully armed, in each. What we have not confirmed, and in fact have only just begun to question about, is the location of real airbases with fully functional fighters such as F22/A's and (of interest specifically to us) 17 Bong Buster II fighters and 3 Head Rush fighter/bombers that have turned up "missing" in various areas under our control - particularly in Nigeria."

OOC: Just so you know, you'll find out about the carrier and the subs soon enough - It is part of another RP I'm working up. These guys can't tell you that, but watch what happens when Maui hits the Phillipines.

The C5 with the Intel fella's broke formation from the rest of the group and headed for the main airport of Chungming. The other C5's would fly towards the bases were the planes would be stationed. The C5 landed and the cargo doors opened. Twenty men in long black coats (light and comfy for tropical area's;)) walked down the ramp. At the foot of the ramp they waited for the Mauiwowee Intel guys. The leader of the group, Maj. Sosaw, looked around the airport. They waited...

Col. and double naught spy, Jethro Bodine approached the waiting men from Warta Endor. "Welcome gentlemen" he said as he approached Maj. Sosaw and his men." After a few brief pleasantries and introductions he said "If you will follow me, I'll take you to the quarters we have set up for your team." As they walked across the compound toward a large, non-descript stone building, Jethro continued to fill in Maj. Sosaw on how things stood. "General Li from Ato Sara is already here Maj. and his team is likely to be in the process of beginning interrogations at this time. At about 1800 hours, a little over an hour from now, we'll be ready to give you and your team the full intel. briefing on what we have learned so far from the CoB captives. We are in the process of arranging a rotating schedule for interrogation with you, us and Ato Sara having an equal amount of time each day with each of the 4 captives. In the meantime, we've assigned a team of Royal Guardsmen as liasons between your team, Ato Sara's team and us. If you need anything, do not hesitate to ask and we'll make sure your requests are accomodated."

OOC: WE - so I don't have to re-type it, assume your guys go to a short briefing and receive the info. about methods and information gained so far that is in my first post.

Breaking news today the govenors of both Cambodia and Laos have agreed to become part of our great empire in return for ridding the cult of barney and anarchist rebels from the countries.
The FASA and Jade gaurd units have meanwhile been conducting a series of search and destroy missions against the insurgents. To bolster this war effort the minister for defence Joi ka Tan has commisioned a new air cavalry regiment to be founded.

In related news a suspected Cult of Barney nuclear attack was launched against the makklu island chain resulting in thousands of deaths.

General Jack Xi looked at the reports and stare up at his aide with a grim face.
"How long till the Aircavalry come operational?" the aide shifted slightly.
"Ten months sir and then another to mobilise them."
"Good the sooner we get this over with the bettter."
