If you were missed send me a pm.

Pros:

• Very nice to lead again! Had a lot of fun and glad not to have been overwhelmed.
• Happy that leaders, when permitted to act freely on the execution of tasking, performed well and achieved them in a timely manner.
• Simple yet very immersive op, clear goals, nice AO, good stuff.
• Pressure kept up on us, interesting twists (SCUD!).
• Great comms with most element leaders.
• Highly effective GUN-7 and ATLAS crews.
• Squads pushed through adversity and mutually supported each other well.
• Great CAS and BUFFALO inserts from A/1-7.
• Mission accomplished! (extracted the VIP we didn't have to option to kill, found some additional intel, killed the bad guy and found the T15, BMP5 and SCUD).

Cons:

• Some element leads need to work on comms brevity, it's a skill and I realize I fail at that sometimes myself.
• My "interesting" choice of LZ, led to a "highly interactive and engaging" start of the op for infantry
• Some elements of the QRF were a lil bit much (tank platoon), but thankfully HOG was on station.
• Poor PID / fire discipline led to KIA VIP (the AAF general trying to flee the compound in a car got schwacked with 40mm and full auto), the car should've just been disabled and the VIP captured. Simply overkill, unnecessary.
• Shame we've lost a rotary pilot to technical issues just before dustoff - generally would've liked a bigger turnout from rotary pilots capable of Chinook flight.

Element Callsign: Atlas-2
Element Leader: Private First Class Sam.T

7th Cavalry Personnel Within Element:
Corporal Velasquez.J
Private First Class Sam.T
Private Moon.P



Pros:

• Very fun and well-paced OP across the board, the medical team had consistent work throughout.
• Good comms over the radio between GUN-7 and the Atlas teams.

Cons:

• Single black casualty for Atlas-2. Following up this seemed to stem from the medic skipping a step in patient care, eventually leading to a black tag.
• One instance of perm issues. At one point a medic was unable to access a patient's medical menu, it was specified that this happened inside a building at the time. No perm issues were had outside of buildings.
• Transport into the AO initially was an issue. We had no medical presence with the first Gunslinger element into the AO, leading to Atlas having to rush to casualties immediately off of the helicopter.
