Pros:

• Top performance from all involved,. Professionalism when approaching all the varying objectives.
• Good leadership allowed for clear communication and movement orders to be given.
• The intensity and lack of warning for the stand up COP defense was brilliant. A highlight many will talk about for a while.
• The quickness of everybody switching on and bringing their A game on the stand to.
• Quick succession of command by all allowed orders and fire to still be directed.
• ATLAS teams were on point and remained calm and collect with the overwhelming amount of casualties.
• All key points well executed such as convoy movement, MOUT work and defensive tactics.
• Brilliant teamwork from all, making sure everyone was fit and able and had enough ammo.
• Engaged and neutralised multiple enemies that were controlled perfectly by human players.
• FOB stand up was a nice way of getting straight into the action.
• When they did arrive, brilliant work from INFIDEL, HOG and BUFFALO.
• SLEDGE very much kept us alive with highly direct mortar fire.
• Brilliant work from both 5-6 to keep all cogs moving and on point in getting across AO and reacting to perimeter defense.
• Cracking send off to what has been a top notch campaign. Look forward to the next.

Mazinski.H Fantastic as always.

Cons:

• More awareness needed for IR laser discipline. Enemy could zero onto position because of such.
• Maybe more contact balance in mission with the clearing of the towns feeling like an after thought.
