The 179th Battalion occupies the critical town of Galloper's Overlook. So long as Equestrian forces hold it, the 3rd Army in valley below is safe from bombardment. Should the town fall, then the Northern Front will collapse. The battalion must hold.

But they can't. Outgunned, outnumbered, and surrounded, the 179th is running low on both ammunition and hope. Captain Tome, a stallion painfully aware of his own shortcomings as a commander, must find a way to stave off the inevitable. In war, ordinary ponies must rise to become the heroes everyone needs. Courage takes many forms. So do legends.

This story is part of the AU canon "War's Generation," but may be read as a standalone.

As this story contains graphic imagery of war, I am placing a link to the Veteran Crisis line here, as well as links to the national suicide prevention hotline and a list of international hotlines. There is no shame in needing help. In truth, it is courageous to ask for it. To those who served, you served us - let us help you.

This story is dedicated to all men and women in uniform, to ordinary heroes, and especially to the 101st Airborne, colloquially known as the 'Screaming Eagles,' and to the 308th Infantry Regiment, colloquially known as the 'Lost Battalion.'

Author note 1: This is a story written using UK English dictionary.

Author note 2: I started writing this tale Post-season 8 Ep.13 and is adapted to the cannon of Season 8 Ep. 26.
As I'm sure will become obvious to you, I cannot adapt most of this tale to a state post-season 9. I will do my best to match it though, I have a few ideas. So for the moment please, sit back and take yourself back to a pre-season 9 Equestria.

Robert is suddenly dropped into a world with no Earthly problems and no Earthly idea on how to proceed except with a very fateful run in for both him and ponykind. Robert goes on a long journey to self-realize his own dream he never knew he had and to realize a better Equestria.

This is just an attempt at a HiE fic done with actually decent skills now.

Being a professional at what you do has its ups and downs. One of those downs are that you might be given a task that would be too hard even for you.

But that shouldn't matter here, as being professional here means as long as you do your job correctly, then it shouldn't be too hard.

Just try and have a plan first before you do something reckless. It might just cost you your life.
