Jones sees that the prisoner is somewhat stabilized, and takes care
of first things first...he cleans his weapon!  After a quick but
thorough field maintenance on the machine gun, Jones reloads and
secures it, reloads the emptied magazines, and gets a couple more
grenades, just in case.

Next comes the question of injuries...While the group came out
with few wounds, it never hurt to make sure that everyone was
ready for action.  

When these efforts had been completed, Jones followed Foxmore's
example and cleaned up.  The next item on the agenda was to
move the group...there was absolutely no point in sticking
around to see what came next!  Jones spoke to his associates,
encouraging a quick move to some area at least a mile away...
to be followed, of course, by getting ready for the trip
into town...
