And roll they did. Task Force Lessem moved out of Fort Belvoir, heading toward the central Government Zone from the south, while Task Force Kemper from Fort Meade came in from the north. Tom got all of his recon drones into the air, watching for developing trouble spots and surveying the progress of the task forces. He concentrated on Task Force Lessem since they were closer to the rioters. Even with Captain Black, in command of the task force’s armor, keeping his tanks back and letting the infantry afoot secure travel lanes for him, they made good progress. Within three hours they’d swept through Alexandria in the Arlington District and put paid to the rioters’ incipient armored force in a ten-minute battle in the old rail yards. Black’s caution was proven wise when the troops searched the workshops and uncovered a stash of shoulder-launched anti-armor missiles.
