It looked like someone had kicked an anthill. Clint and Leah dropped their garden tools and started moving. The 20 Free America troops that were stationed there also hurried to positions. Leah and Lorraine went to the cabin basement and Clint took up his position outside in a sand bagged area.
3 helicopters came into view with US markings. Maybe they would be friendly but that thought was quickly dispelled as the helicopters opened fire. 2 rockets streaked from under the pods under each helicopter, speeding towards different spots on the farm. Several rockets exploded in different sections of field, ruining crops. Another rocket took out the chicken and pig coops.
The 3 helicopters hovered a few feet off the ground as MOA jumped off with guns blazing, 6 MOA on each one. The helicopters took off and circled the area, their machine guns spewing bullets. The Free America troops had their 2 squad automatic rifles manned and returning fire. Several of the MOA had already fallen under the hail of bullets.
The helicopters swung around to make a pass at the squad automatic rifles (SAW). The SAWs were 5.56 calibers and weren't having much effect against the helicopters. Another Free America soldier had the RPG and fired a rocket. It caught one of the helicopters in its motor and the explosion caused the helicopter to fall in a fiery ball of screeching metal.
The man with the RPG was wise enough to move to a different location after firing. It was good that he did as the 2 remaining helicopters turned that area into a death trap with a hail of bullets. The RPG man launched a 2nd rocket. This hit wasn't as spectacular as the 1st one. This time it hit the rear of the helicopter but it was enough to rip most of the back off which caused the helicopter to start swirling out of control and crashing to the ground in a tangled mess. The last helicopter had enough and left.

The MOA troops on the ground were putting up a strong fight. There was at least 15 of them left and they were trying to advance. They had moved to the edges of the field so that they could be inside the forest as cover. It was harder to shoot them now as they ducked from tree to tree. All that was seen was a quick glimpse of the MOA.
They were less than 75 yards away now and it would soon be close up, face to face battle. Clint was taking single shots as he glimpsed an MOA near the edge of the forest. He had got 2 of them so far. He had to duck below the sand bags due to a hail of incoming bullets, sand was flying everywhere. A MOA was close enough to lob a grenade at Clint's position. It fell a little short and exploded with a shower of dirt about 10 feet short of him.
Clint had several grenades of his own and had seen where the enemy had thrown it, his throw was stronger and the grenade's explosion caused 3 MOA to fall out of the brush. He saw another enemy expose part of his body as he was trying to shoot at a Free America soldier. Clint shot, aiming for the exposed head. The soldier moved and the bullet aimed for the head, went through the MOA soldier's jaw, shattering it and teeth and blood flying everywhere. Not a killing shot but he doubted if the soldier would be in any shape to fight.
The MOA soldiers made a last rush, closing the distance to where it would be CQB. Clint had dropped the partial magazine from his M4 and inserted a full one as the attack came.

He had just finished inserting the magazine when a MOA soldier was almost upon him. He squeezed a round off, hitting the man who faltered but then kept coming. Clint then stitched a path of bullets across his chest, which finally put the man down. Another muslim was on him with a large knife with what to Clint looked like a blade 5 feet long but was in reality was only 12 inches.
The muslim swiped at him with the knife, Clint barely avoiding being cut. Then the muslim was on him, both struggling with the knife. The muslim's face was close to his face. Clint could smell the man's foul breath and spittle was flying onto Clint. The muslim was slowly pushing the knife towards Clint. Clint thought of his wife and child and how he had to live for them. He twisted to the side, throwing the muslim off balance, which allowed Clint the advantage of being able to shove the knife into the man's gut. Clint was able to slice the knife sideways, spilling his guts onto the ground. The muslim fell to the ground with a look of shock on his face, slowly losing his life.
Looking around, he saw the last 4 muslims running across the field trying to get away. There is no such thing as being fair in war. Clint and the rest of the Free America troops shot the muslims in the back. After checking around to make sure there were no more enemies alive, Clint had Leah and his child come up into the cabin but wait until things were cleaned up before coming outside.

There is an old saying:
In war never leave an enemy alive for it can come back to haunt/kill you.

Clint started dragging muslim bodies off to the side. The Free America soldiers said there was no time, they all had to get out of there, get packing with his wife and child. He was confused as to why. The soldiers reminded him of the 1 helicopter that got away, that the enemy would be back quickly and with more firepower.
Clint argued and Leah came out in the middle of the debate. She asked what was going on, a soldier explained what they thought would happen next, Clint said it was his place and he wasn't running away from what was his. Leah said she was staying with her husband, they would fix things and no one was running them off. The Free America soldiers shook their heads in sadness as they packed up and left.
A short time later the Free America soldiers had just went over the ridge line when they heard roaring coming down the valley. They looked back just in time to see Clint, wife and baby in the open field as 3 jets came roaring in. They each dropped several bombs of napalm. They saw the roaring fires envelop Clint and family, the cabin, fields and surrounding area. They were too far away to hear any screams as the jets roared away. When the fires died down, all the soldiers found where 2 charred mounds and a small mound.
THE END

I was trying to show a lesson on not being wise and the possible consequences.

Thanks as well for the story.
I had cataract surgery a few years back after wearing contacts/glasses for about 40+years. What a game changer. Wish I had needed it sooner, lol.
Take care and best of luck.

Sadly it will not have a happy ending for the most part. I understand hating to leave. But he had family to protect. Think of your area. Which house is solid? Maybe actual block walls, log cabin (not just siding but 10” logs)? You set up traps, grab what you can and leave. If a force comes you can handle you wipe them out. But multiple armed choppers? Yep that’s beyond dime store Rambo stuff. I must admit the free America folks would have been suggested another location.say that house with brand new septic tank that was never hooked up? Should be a decent place to cache stuff. If you have thin people to get it out, make sure you get a bit of air exchange..

Clint went on alert and raised his M4 partway but not the full way, since none of the 3 men had their guns up. Leah hurriedly went inside the cabin, taking the baby with her. He knew she would be looking out the other windows, checking for any other people.
1 of the men raised his arm in greeting as they slung their rifles over their shoulders. Clint didn't sling his rifle but also didn's point it at them. They approached him and stopped 20 feet away. They said they were members of Free America and were out seeing if they found any people in this direction, they had only found 2 other people in their travels.
Clint told them he had only seen 6 other people and they were all dead because they had tried to hurt him and his. The 3 men assured him they were not here to hurt him or the woman poking a gun barrel out the window in their direction. Clint laughed and waved the stand down signal to Leah while telling the men she was a crack shot.
Clint explained the first was a downed US military pilot and was getting all tyranny on them. One of the men said they remembered their pilot saying a downed a US jet a while back. Clint talked of the 5 men of Muslims of America. The 3 men said their base had been attacked several times by the MOA.
Clint asked them how many people were alive after the asteroid and was told that in a several hundred mile radius, they had only found 10 people alive. Clint's brain tried absorbing that fact of how many people had died.
I though two Kevin/Karen Pilot, 5 guys and bees. 6. I count 8 were the first two not people?
