((Okay... Sorry for the confusion, but disregard my old posts... I'm official in the FDF as the Heavy Exo Suit Sargent. I'll introduce myself at the base...))
Ember sat on the bouncing transport truck, one of the three in the convoy to the FDF base her and her team had been assigned to. Steel company must have really been in a rough time if they had been sent to some Jungle base. Her Heavy Exterior-Armor Combat Suit jangled around behind her in the truck. She scratched at her short hair, sighing. She missed her friends back at Main command. All the other Heavy Shock troops were left back, going to some of the bigger encampments, while she was sent to some other one.
She let her legs dangle, her boots occasionally pinged by gravel. She grinned though at the prospect of adventure. Who knew? Maybe something good would come out of it.
"Xxxxxtttcchhh... Sarge, two mikes till we hit the encampment. Might want to get suited up. First impressions and all."
Ember reached down and picked up her crackling radio. "Got it Oddball. Get Twitch, Spade, and Jugs into their own suits. Ember out."
She leaned back, her sinewy muscles lifting her fox body up. As she stood in front of her 10 foot power suit, she stroked the decal of a fiery nymph holding a flamethrower that was on the shoulder plate. She stepped up onto the footpad, lying back into the body shaped cockpit. The front of it hissed as the hydraulics lowered the chest plate down, thereby causing the helmet to close over her head. The screen inside booted up, and she saw the four other members of her squad logged in and running.
"Time to make good impressions. I bet the infantry here haven't even seen heavy troopers before"

The trucks pulled up into the compound, their back canvas flapping, as five figures, each easily 10 foot tall, stepped out and made a loud thud as their metal boots hit gravel. The biggest, the one with the decal of a fire nymph, stood in the center, holding its huge T-14 Impaler Gauss rifle by the handle loosely, as a gruff female voice came through the speakers on the suit.
"Any of you grunts know who the commanding officer is and where I can find him or her?
