7th Cavalry Personnel Within Element:

Pros:

• Mission success with minimal air losses in AO (x2)
• Air to Ground strikers were effective against targets, clearing the path for CSAR
• Improvement to provide a Carrier Group CTAF, to separate unique comms from typical Airfield CTAF
• Hand off of aircraft to ATC was smooth

Cons:

• Communication is improving, but some individuals do not respond when called or are on wrong frequencies
• Red air interceptors utilized their SAM net to full extent, dragging friendly CAP into unfavorable engagements
• F-18 and A-10 CAS flights had the same WPs, resulted in doubling up on mission and not enough for either
• Mission ran long to complete due to missing rotary transport (due to natural causes)
