Element Callsign: Helios-1

Element Leader:
Sergeant McAllen.J

7th Cavalry Personnel Within Element:


Specialist Webbel.R
Specialist Yota.G
Specialist Van.J
Corporal Rozkhov.P

Pros

  • Enjoyed taking out the mines
  • The Convoy staging seemed quick and efficient
  • We liked building the CP
  • We got to do some reinserts


Cons

  • I believe a longer movement phase with more turns and performing herringbone halts would've been beneficial
  • We didn't get a lot of contact at the CP
  • Lack of actual Helios tasking (Demo and or reinsertions)
Notes: I think it would be a good idea to either have a Zeus per AO so that we can have one monitoring Helios's stuff and one for Viking. We could also have Section Leads and or others to assist in adding more things for our platoons.

Pros:
  • Excellent fireteam work - all troopers performed at a high level
  • FTLs led well, good initiative, good skills demonstrated
  • Excellent bounding movements / mutual support / maneuver
  • Excellent platoon medic support

Cons:
  • Not enough map markers for coordination
  • Helpers were not slotted deliberately beforehand
  • Updated Opord slides did not show up on Opord page, so difficult to reference during op
  • Convoy felt a bit sloppy in terms of herringbones, etc
  • More explicit briefing instructions on the event page would be helpful - what time briefing, what discord channel, etc.

Pros:
  • Good coms with command
  • Good security was provided whenever idle by everyone we observed

Cons:
  • Not a lot to do (note: Me and CPL.Artale ahd to leave after about 1,5h)
  • Initial confusion on how -7 is placed in the covy, but it got resolved quickly
  • Not a huge fan of having to split up, leaving one medic without buddy aid support.
