Nance was there too

Pros:

• Overall execution by the squad and platoon
• Radio communications between HQ, and between SLs, were clear, concise and timely.
• Adaptation during the raid objective was good
• Implementation of Helios attachments, conducting demo, mining, and indirect fire with the 60mm mortar was invaluable.
• Planning and execution of the ambush was excellent

Cons:

• Platoon was severely understrength for the size of the objective
• A more realistic reaction from OPFOR during the ambush would have been appreciated
• It would have made more sense for OPFOR to send a QRF from the military site north of Coastal Base Chotain
• Having troopers from other MOSs initially slotting into their own faction, then reassigning them to where they are needed could help with organization and balancing of manpower.

Element Callsign: Bandit 3
Element Leader: Corporal Grey.T
7th Cavalry Personnel Within Element:
Sergeant Giordano.C
Corporal McGahan.L - he tried with many failures to connect
Corporal Pearl.F
Specialist Chisum.J
Specialist Ford.R
Specialist McKinley.K
Private First Class Pepper.A

Pros:

• Bandit 3 was able to complete tasks with minimal casualties.
• Bandit 3 has been able to overcome obstacles, call out early on set threats and took an over all aggressive stance when possible.
• Bandit 3 has been instilling any and all movement has time hacks and guidelines.
• Bandit 3 and 1 worked well on movement and secured the enemy encampment, we were then requested to provide aid to the military base, where they cleared the back line.

Cons:

• There was a bit of standing around on the X after we cleared the area.
• Bandit 3 was not replenished until the final push, it brought supplies dangerously low.
• No Helios, when we found a mortar pit we did not have proper explosives, Counter to this Grenades do destroy mortar pits.
• Quicker reactions across the board, if we are given time constraints we need to expedite - as a whole.
• More use of SOSRA, this will be a building block to any and all actions for 3.
• McGahan's internet - RIP.
