7th Cavalry Personnel Within Element:
Corporal Shepard.S

Pros:

• Mission ran at 90 minutes, was really well paced with no 'tacked-on' elements to stretch out runtime.
• CPL.Shepard.S very dependable crewman, us working together gave me a really good experience I haven't had in a long time
• Radio comms were very streamlined
• Approach on AOI 2 could have been improved by not going through the winding road/tree coverage, otherwise exceptional planning

Cons:

• Slow orientation at start
• Low turnout, we did a lot as a platoon despite this.
