Instructions

A small story from the Great War Rp. Bunker 13 was a bunker made by the New Australian Republic during Operation Safety. It was the last to fall under the onslaught of Dalmatian and Norscan forces. What you are hearing is Sabatton's The Last Battle song, centered around the Itter Castle battle of WW2. I choose the song because it related to bunker's predicament. It held 376 soldiers and 20 civilians. It held over 4,000 tons of ammunition. The only weapons the bunker possessed were dual maxim machine guns and a single 17 pounder cannon. The soldiers carried only revolvers and pistols along with another maxim and a single rifle in the arsenal. The Bunker also had 500 pounds of rations, it was supposed to hold 100,000 pounds of food, but came under siege before all food stocks could be loaded into the bunker. Captain Ben Lyson and his men held out in the bunker for 3 months, bravely resisting the Norscan, Dalmatian and Yellownian forces. The Enemy troops finally breached the bunker on October 30, 1917. The Soldiers fought down to the last man. The civilians also defended as well. They inflicted heavy casualities on the enemy forces. They are to have been recorded to kill 2 full battalions, and it was found they were low on food as well. The bunker site is honored by formed soldiers of the NAR.

Description

Its very poorly drawn I know. PLz make a better one if you can Bunker 13 was part of a bunker ring, a literal ring of bunkers connected underground by tunnels. As the other bunkers fell, the men of bunker 13 used the 17 pounder cannon and spare Machine gun to defend the tunnel, and when the were nearly out of ammo, aimed the canon at a support beam, and collapsed the tunnel leading into bunker 13. If the soldiers would have pushed into the other bunkers, they could have possibly lasted longer.
