Establish a Beachhead is an Alliance-only quest for level 35-60. It is step 3 of 15 in The Sands of Vol'dun storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Vol'dun at 37.7, 35.8.
I won't allow Private Leonard's sacrifice to be in vain. Let's get our men out here and fortify this place up before those... "sethrak" decide to come back.
Here, plant this banner somewhere visible so the ship knows its safe. That platform over next to the dock should do the trick.

By this post's date the quest is bugged, for some reason automatically cancell the cutscene.

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Part 3 of 15.
The desert of Vol'dun has a promising harbor for our fleet. First, however, we must deal with the indigenous snake people known as the sethrak.

Taken from the storyline's own step order.
We're going to need a harbor for our base of operations. Those ruins across the way should be perfect for our needs. Unfortunately, it looks to be occupied by a hostile force so I'm sending the marines to secure the shore. As the most experienced soldier here I want you to go with them.
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
Sergeant Ermey is a man of honor, he would never leave one of his men behind. But one of these days that sentiment is going to get himself killed. We don't even know what threats we face in this land. We certainly don't have the resources to spend searching for a missing private.
The Sands of Vol'dun has 15 steps, from Voyage to the West to Return to Boralus.
