The Patriot by Dewey Goldsmith

closer look around the grounds, I’ll be back in a short time. He casually walked the two blocks then as he was going past the rear of the building he noticed two state policemen and a national guardsman standing near the parking area. He turned the corner and walked towards the front along the trees lining the walk. Two national guardsmen and a doorman were standing by the front door. He walked a ways then turned again and followed the trees along the east side of the grounds seeing no one on that side he continued on towards Mac and the others. He still could not get a look inside the other structure.
    Mac said there has been no traffic entering now for some time, looks like they are all here. Goldie said looks that way it’s a little early yet so we will wait a while. He advised the others as to the location of guards and state police and Mac said how we going to set this up. Goldie said there is a city park about two blocks past the governor’s house. The drivers will drop us off at the rear entrance then go on to the park and turn around and wait. When the explosions sound pull the vehicles up to the rear entrance and wait there. Tim you and the five men riding with you wait in the trees in back and give Mac and me and the others about two minutes to work our way along the trees to the front. Mac and I have silencers on our weapons and we will take out the front guards without alarming anyone inside. At exactly eight we will enter the building. Mac once inside you take two men with incendiary grenades and two men with plastic explosives down the hallway to the right. Four of the men and I will each have grenades and plastic and we will go straight in towards the main ballroom entrance.
    Mac you and your men light and toss the incendiary grenades in the side entrance to the dining area then follow up with the explosives. As soon as you have thrown your stuff in make your way back down the hallway to the front entrance. When we hear the explosions we will give you a few seconds to get clear then we will throw everything in thru the front doors then back out to meet you at the entrance. As we leave the building I will throw a piece of plastic in the front entrance behind us to prevent anyone from following. Tim as soon as you hear the first sounds of gunfire or explosions you guys open up and eliminate the guardsman and troopers in back then light and throw two of the large plastic explosives at each rear corner of the building and one in the rear doorway. By then we should be coming towards the rear to meet up with you. Just one other thing, we do not know what or who is in the side structure. It could be for hired help or guests, but we have to assume it could be a place for back up forces. Be ready to direct fire towards that area as we leave if need be. Anyone have a question? Ok remember, no matter what happens we all leave together or no one leaves.
    Drivers remember, once we are back in the vehicles drive straight east on this street until you come to the bypass. Turn right on the bypass south and proceed for approximately five miles, then exit left on route thirty three east. That will get us out of the city traffic quick. Ok its five till eight lets roll. Goldie and Mac were in the front vehicle and stopped got out and entered the woods as Tim and his men were getting out of their car. They made their way to the front and looked the area over. The two guards were posted one on each side of the entrance. Goldie said you take the one on the left when you’re ready. Mac fired and Goldie followed a split second later, both guards fell to the ground soundless. Goldie led his men into the building and went straight towards the main doors as Mac and his men started down the hallway. A few seconds later he heard shouting then explosions rocked the building. Goldie watched until he saw Mac’s men had made their way back to the entrance then said now and the men all threw their grenades and plastic thru the doors. Bombs
