​

Element Callsign: VIKING-7
Element Leader: First Lieutenant Sam.T

Pros:

• Good comms on the medical net, good 6-lines etc.
• Good amount of initial triage and casualty work form the perspective of -7.
• Casualties that arrived in care we treated effectively and rapidly.
• Actioned several CASEVACs using the command Stryker, always awesome to see!
• The platoon as a whole was able to manage a lot of contact, at least it felt that way.

Cons:

• The spread out platoon combined with the lower medical turnout led to several situations where medics were arriving on scene after casualties recovered or expired.
• Issues with communication in relation to vehicles (unloading casualties that were under care, lack of effective handoffs, loading casualties into the wrong vehicles etc).
• Atlas was obliterated by IDF along with most of Viking-4, and then while trying to figure out who could be EVAC off the X indirect WP hit us as well.

Element Callsign: ATLAS-1
Element Leader: SPC.McAllen.J

7th Cavalry Personnel Within Element:
SPC.Winters.R
SPC.Rhodes.J

Pros:

• An acceptable amount of contact
• Teamwork between medics was well done.
  
  Cons:
• Light medical, not a whole lot to do tonight
• IDF landing on top of friendly personnel ruins the experience to those it effects especially if it is exactly on target.
• The pacing was a bit erratic, felt very slow when it was slow with quick 15-minute bursts of action.
• Vehicle Ops tend to get boring for Atlas personnel, since we are stuck in a vehicle a majority of the Op with nothing to do.
