The War of '63

by Fleetwood_Brougham
A motley collection of ponies attempt to hold off the American invasion of Equestria.

I've had this idea in my head for a very long time, but, except for Sir Henry, Father Night, and a few others, I haven't told many people about it.

Synopsis: The year is 1963, and war is on it's way to Equestria. After the US blocked off trade with Cuba the previous year, they began to suspect that the little landlocked nation, nestled secretly inside Utah, was stocking up on Soviet weapons. Fearing an invasion, President Kennedy launched a preemptive strike. These are the stories of several seemingly-harmless ponies, including Mr. Cake, C.D. Donkey, Dutch, Pony Joe and Mel, who once defended their country against overwhelming odds.

Rated T for heavy swearing and occaisional gore.
