Element Callsign: Hitman - 6 / Bandit - 6
Element Leader: Staff Sergeant Lucander.P

7th Cavalry Personnel Within Element:
Staff Sergeant Lucander.P
First Lieutenant Grgich.A


Pros:

Good initiative on SL to work towards my goals as OIC.

Good level of fights with a hard but fair enemy.


Cons:

Limited amount of platoon and company staff. Coordination of support element suffered with the lack of staff, that resulted in almost no tasking and no BDA's for Odin.

Medical team with medical vehicle is needed for all Reforger operations and i strongly recommend that we add it as a SOP, as command staff should not lose the overall focus driving around healing everyone.

Phase 1 OIC briefing could have used a better focus on what were important to know for the OIC and not a small text of Key terrain.

When running continues operation please call the Key terrain different names over the Phases, as 10 series 20 series 30 series and so on, so for the first phase KT 11, 12, 13 so on and for second phase 21, 22, 23 so on, as its hard to do briefings where you do continues and have to move slide between the phases.

The operation tempo got a bit stressed in Phase 1, as we were doing 2 platoons worth of objectives as a 5 squad platoon without a Platoon Sergeant.

A need to work on improving overall 360 security, as many squads got attacked in the back, when they got tunnel vision at objectives.

Element Callsign: Bandit - 3

Element Leader: PFC.Giordano.C

7th Cavalry Personnel Within Element:
PVT.Hartshock.P
RCT.Henderson.JA
PVT.Harlow.M
PFC.Walmsley.M

Pros:
-Squad responded exceptional to all contact engagements as well as equipped for the different variations.
-Inter-squad communications exceptional top to bottom
-PL communications picked up towards the better from Phase 1 as well noticed multiple squads in better lanes to incorporate SBF and Assault elements.
-Filling into a larger squad with 2 FT's worked well allowing bandit - 3 to provide SBF, Support, and assault whenever needed.

Cons:
-Squad movement needed to be more methodical and coercive. Too many times we found ourselves scattered from lack of knowledge on where to be. (Personal)
-The call to pull bandit - 2 & 3 off to assault KTO17 from KT016 could've been made sooner as we got into a lull.
