Interesting story, although it reads more like an overview or
a news report
than a story itself.  It would make a good prologue/teaser to
a story about
a Special Forces team or three invading Beryl's universe.
Especially if
they end up there the same time that Sailor Moon and company
launched their
assault.

Well, it's kinda a description of events from my viewpoint.

One other note, You wrote that bases were going to Charlie and that the
Western US bases were going to Delta.  Many of the people I
know (those that
aren't in the same line of work at least) wouldn't know what
was meant by
'Charlie' and 'Delta.'  You might want to amend it to say
'Force Protection
Condition Charily and Delta.  While it doesn't go into details
about what
the different measures are, it's a bit more descriptive about
what you're
talking about.

For those who don't know, Force Protection conditions are kinda like the
military version of the color codes.  We, however, only have 5 levels.
None, Alpha, Bravo, Charlie, Delta.  Charlie means 'Attack is probable', and
Delta is 'Attack in progress or imminent'.  It basically means that the nice
gate guards dissappear and are replaced with guy who look ready to go on
SWAT missions.  More patrols, augmentees, and other stuff like that.
