Some extended air frequency assignments for today:
Air Tactics FM 168.325
Rotor Vic/TFR 125.775
I don’t have Air/Ground. Likely one of the CDF A/G 4-16
Edit:
Reche had some orders also and they may have been repurposed for Rabbit now that Reche is handled. Wouldn’t hurt to try them all.
Reche Air Tactics FM 168.3375
Reche Air/Ground 159.2775 / 192.8 (CDF A/G 15)
Reche Rotor Vic 121.375
Also try both CDF Command 2 and 3

2 dozers and 25 engines have been requested to Division M to defend structures. I am not positive where M is located.

Assuming division A is point of origin/initial attack, I’m guessing M would be SW edges of Beaumont?
