Element Callsign: GUNSLINGER-1
Element Leader: Corporal Dio.B

7Cav Personnel within element:
Corporal Dio.B
Specialist Verlot.L
Private First Class Holiday.T
Specialist McMaster.G
Sergeant Major Schmidt.A
Private Harvey.C
Private Silver.G
Private First Class Delgado.C

Pros:

• Communication was active, clear and on time within squad and from squad to Gun-6.
• Signalling used to kick off assaults. Lift-fire and shift-fire calls carried out timely and professionally
• LZ Fast Rope was well carried out on our stick. LZ cleared instantly for next stick to rope and no "tripping over each other" happened
• 2 of 3 hostages secured at Camp Gucci - thats a passing grade.
• No black tags. When we did become combat ineffective we were able to gather those that were fighting ready to maintain security on CCP/ maneuver with flank elements and once wounded were treated ; were able to continue and regroup flawlessly and effortleslly.
• Excellent Team leaders lead to excellent flow of mission for Gun-1.

Cons:

• Guns issues with not being able to fire/clear jams
• Slow platoon movement did not take advantage of momentum / tripping over lanes during platoon movements
• Gunslinger-2 through some movements did not cover flank of Gun-1 and instead trailed directly behind. Security at some positions was difficult to maintain because of this.
• need to better understand capacity of insertion vehicles/airframes to shorten time to kick off at beginning of ops and to smooth the infil.
• Gun-1 forced to resupply when ACE all green and on line ready to move ( momentum killer)

Element Callsign: Raider-1
Element Leader: Second Lieutenant Dread.M

7th Cavalry Personnel Involved in Action:
Second Lieutenant Dread.M

Pros:

• Great to see 2 Hogs flown by great FW pilots
• G2A communication was consistent, and it never got overboard
• Lots of ISR tasking

Cons:

• Slot naming is skewed Buffalo-2 in game is named Bison-1 for some reason. Suggest if Bison is a wanted asset it has the slotting named correctly and only has a copilot and pilot like Raider. The door gunner and crew chief have no active roll in Bison.
• A few complaints from the public player I was with about this mission file getting old for some of the regular public players.

 

[Whitehead.B]

Element Callsign: GUNSLINGER-2
Element Leader: SPC.Whitehead.B

7Cav Personnel within element:
SPC.Whitehead.B
SPC.Zander.D
CPL.Velasquez.J
SPC.Cobblestone.G
SPC.Rodahl.S
SSG.Abate.L
CPL.Barone.E
CPL.Terp.J

Pros:

• Lots of fun on the new jungle map made it difficult to find single targets taking accurate shots at Gunslinger-2 more interesting that open maps that you can eliminate entire squads with a 30 second engagement
• No Black casulties
• Liked the new weapons with the modpack update

Cons:

• Squad Didnt enjoy the strict explosive dicipline as it is less fun not getting to use MAWWS UGLs ect
• Hard to have mutual support in a jungle environment
• AR jamming bug i believe Liber is tracking
• Had an incident of an already flash bang breached building being Flashbang breached again causing friendlys to be flashbanged building was marked clear on map
• Would have prefered larger singular targets rather than three small
• More versitility in enemys i believe it was infantry only some technicals would have allowed AT personel to engage something with their AT
• More organised Logi and resupply being brought in at predefined points especially in a jungle environment where you are surpressing through bushes and cant see targets
• unsure if Hot minutes from SBF into vilages with hostages is something that should be done due to possibility of hostages being hit

 

[Langlois.R]

Element Callsign: Hog Flight
Element Leader: Retired Warrant Officer 1 Jason Swagger

7th Cavalry Personnel Involved in Action:
Chief Warrant Officer 2 Ryan Langlois


Pros:

• Fun to fly the A-10C again and bonus points for having a 2nd Hog to work in tandem with
• Great comms from Infidel to spread the workload amongst the 3 air attack assets
• Fixed wing formation landing!!!
• Watching the fast rope inserts from the air was impressive

Cons:

• Initial enemy infantry seemed to be terminators as Hog flight performed multiple gun runs and, while everything else around them was destroyed, the infantry kept marching.
