Andrew sighed, he looked at the clock, it read 10:25, day is now night and the United States is stabilizing. Ever since Former President Mendels arrest and impeachment and following court trial which ended in his death the attacks in America has ceased, but Andrew knew they were just staying low until the heat has cooled off.
With his army fighting in France and in America herself, Andrew knew opening another front especially in the GUK would be suicide without allies so all day his office has been contacting nations and offering deals. Many nations have either declined or not commented yet. Well he knew the CA can be trusted to help. He looked down at his folder, he took out a paper handed to him a few minutes ago and read over it:
Mr. President as per your request I have ordered the USS Golden Eagle and her task group towards England. The rest of the navy is currently near France and ready to move at a moments notice should the need arise.
Admiral Jones, Admiral of Atlantic Fleet.
President Anderson sighed as he put the paper down, "How did the world come to this? France nukeing her neighbors, Denmark invading Germany, and now the GUK, America's longest and closest ally, cuts off all communications and oppresses their people. It appears the United States is the world last hope to bring order and peace to the world." Anderson sighed, "I fear this will break us. America may see her world power slip away in this coming war." President Anderson rubbed his head as he pushed a button and said, "Kristy, could you please ask Secretary Jordan here please?"
"Yes, sir." replied Kristy.
Several minutes later the phone beeps again, "Mr. President Secretary Jordan is here to see you now."
"Thank you, please send her in."
The door opened and a slender women in her 40's entered the room, she walked over to the desk and shook Andrew's hand. "It has been a long time Andrew. How have you been?" She asked.
"Ahh, well you know, running a nation is not like running your local supermarket." He laughed.
"Very true, Mr. President. Now what can I help you with?"
"I fear that we may have another front opening up. I just wanted to know what resources we can spare towards a whole new war."
"Who will this front be against?"
"The GUK."
"Wow, that is quite a tall order. They will be tough to crack, may I ask why we may be going to war?"
"Of course you may. I have ordered the CIA to infiltrate the GUK and bring me reports of their actions, after working with the CA, we have come under the fact that the GUK is forcing the Royal Family into exile and is oppressing their population. We are working with the CA to evacuate the Royal Family, but we fear that the GUK will not stand to allow this to happen and will either shoot the plane down or deny the Royal Family access to the plane. In either case war will be declared."
"Well, with the war in France and here in America our forces are pretty stretched, with the exception of the navy we really cannot withdraw men from those fronts at the moment. What about allies?"
"We have the CA's full support, I am working with the Canadians and Russians to get them to support us."
"Great if they do, they can throw in their air force and ground forces, we can handle the navy. Then once our war in France is done we can redirect our veterans to England."
"Very well, I shall mention this to them when we speak again. Thank you Cassidy. I shall see you again soon, hopefully not in the Situation Room this time."
"Yes Mr President. Should I speak with Secretary of State John Hunter?"
"Yes that may help you work out a plan, becuase I need a plan of action ready and presented on my desk the hour I declare war on the GUK if forced."
"Very well Mr. President. I shall leave now and begin working on it."
The two shook hands and Cassidy left.
Andrew sat back down, smelling the lingering fragrance of the shampoo Cassidy had, Andrew sighed, "Well I guess I better hit the sack." He began to collect his papers when the phone rang, he answered it and a voice said, "Mr. President? This is Prime Minister Peter Williams, I would like to discuss our plan if you have time." Andrew sighed, "Of course, Peter go ahead." Andrew sat down and leaned back, he looked outside his window, he could see the dogs sleeping and he let out a deep breath.
