Pros:

• Fun op, got to do a range of things.

Cons:

• A bit of a slow start, should always have some way or re-arming/refueling with involving a zues. If size is an issue there is a MRAP sized vehicle that does all 3 (forgot the name).
• Rotary needs to be able to react to AA without permission as it's near instantly deadly to us.

Private Burke.A
Private Lee.W

Pros:

• Understrength but everyone was organic Bandit-2!
• Excellent motorized, security, and reactive work
• Learning experience for troopers with an FTX and varied action tempo
• Good working atmosphere with 5/6 and intra-team, allowed for affective AAR and good take-aways for future SPs

Cons:

• Too many micro-orders on movement. Discussed PACE plan and intent distribution for future FTXs
• Weapons squad issue with mortar comms, addressed in leaders AAR.
• Misfit-3 head-charged the first objective from a different side, over-exposing them to the enemy without support and preventing us from being able to help or engage the objective at all.
• I got tunnel vision on the second objective and led my squad through a bad approach which turned an ambush into a MASCAS
