Pros

• Overall good OP. Lots of fun was had across the board.
• Decent amount of medical calls throughout the OP.
• Briefing and mission start happened in a reasonable period. It did not feel rushed or too long.
• The pacing seemed solid. We never felt rushed but consistently moved through objectives and into a new contact. This was an excellent balance for us, as we needed to keep pace with the Gunslinger teams.
• Communication with Gunslinger-7 was smooth, and information was relayed effectively to our team.

Cons:

• Though we did have a decent amount of calls, the calls we received were typically for minor injuries. This means the individual Gun teams were doing their job well, but it made the night a little slow.
• While we are thankful for the work, most of the casualties we received could've been triaged and treated by the CLSs within the teams. Not a big deal tonight, thanks to the low total of red casualties, but during more difficult or prolonged OPs, this could be critical.
• It seemed the term "mas-cas" was used pretty loosely tonight, one event was simply a large group of yellow-level injuries, and another was only 1-2 reds. There is a difference between a multiple-casualty incident and a mas-cas incident.
• Some information relayed to our team was incorrect; a specific example is when we were called to Saber-2's position when it was Saber-1 that needed attention. This could have led to either loss of life on the part of the Saber crew or injury or death of the Atlas team (as Saber-2 was beginning to make contact when we arrived).
