Sustains

• FTLs stepped up without sign ups and did a great job. Teams kept good security and had some good initiative
• Had multiple solid platoon attacks during movements
• Worked well with 4 to make entry on first OBJ
• Squad enjoyed the cave clearance and did a good job in clearance and passing casualties that were taken.

Improves

• Some blue on blue during QRF on 3rd objective. Need to be better with
• Squad directions could be more direct on where and how the team should move
• Could use more buddy bounding when going into contact
• Platoon movement was a little choppy. Think having a large Helios who were just running around wherever made it difficult to track where the platoon movement was.
• Weapons squad had 2 members. But we had 5 people in Helios with multiple MAAWS. Seems that slotting could be better to fill in the natural slotting of the weapons system.
• Troopers noted mission felt linear with overall pretty narrow lane and no real threats to flanks
• Lack of clarity on start time

COMBAT AFTER ACTION REPORT​

Element Callsign: Helios-1
Element Leader: Corporal Bolte.D
7th Cavalry Personnel Within Element:
Sergeant Flint.J
Private First Class Miranda.M
Corporal Thompson.L

Pros:

• Had a lot of fun maneuvering with Platoon movement
• Was coordinating with the squads as we were attaching and detaching through movements to get to our breaching objs or trying to keep the squads supplied before FOB was setup.
• Able to demo breach points and also the the mission critical at the final obj.

Cons:

• Helios is seen as doing "too much" tasking, I took initiative to find alternate routes to help infantry out to gain other lines of sight and not feed into fatal funnel.
• Helios carries multiple capabilities and are able to execute on them, one being having rockets as well. Helios can encounter enemy armor and can also engage if WPNS SQD can't get to us.

 

[Borenstein.B]

Element Callsign: Bandit-5
Element Leader: Sergeant First Class Borenstein.B​

Pros:

• 6 and 6R great command, comms, and control
• good coordination air to ground
• crossloading
• fun mission, especially the caves portion
• platoon had good coordination between lanes

Cons:

• the shadowing in Reforger is really bugging me lately... not being able to see into an open cave or building until you've walked through is irritating.
• got a wee bunched up in the bunker at the end but overall it went pretty smoothly
• I'm not sure if its me or the AT4 itself, but this is the second OP where I've shot after getting a perfect range, with flat elevation, and my round has landed 50 meters short?
