Element Callsign: Banshee-1
Element Leader: Corporal Johnsen.M
7th Cavalry Personnel Within Element:
Corporal Lucander.P
Private First Class Birch.J


Pros:

• Armor if always fun
• Keep up the ambushes with Vhcs, MG nets and Snipers; but don't overdo it. Today was a perfect mix of it.
• Usage of mortars was great and created an amazing ambiance for us.
• Great maneuvers with squads and platoon using the right tactics for the right scenarios. This months training goal really showed tonight.
• Step off was pretty much on the dime.

Cons:

• Could be slightly heavier on the Vhc contact department but not by much.
• Sparrow maybe overreached slightly and may have caused them getting show down. Hard too tell from the ground POV.
• Faction issues causing other factions not being able to access the inventory of the Bradley while crew is mounted.

Element Callsign: BANDIT-6
Element Leader: First Sergeant Westcott.R



Pros:

• Fantastic work by ALL element leads! I was hands-off for 80% of the Operation and they took charge, deconflicted, communicated effectively, and steamrolled the entire A.O. (and a FRAGO'd second AO) as well as I have seen it done.
• Special thank you to Helios members: Semper Gumby and literally bounced around keeping the Platoon fighting.
• More Special thanks to LT. Mazinski and CPL. Pearl for stepping up as -7 and -5 and coordinating all the things with me.

Cons:

• None really, the leadership on the ground made this a walk in the sandy park for me tonight.

Element Callsign: Helios-1
Element Leader:Corporal Bolte.D
7th Cavalry Personnel Within Element:
Second Lieutenant Mazinski.H
Specialist Miranda.M
Sergeant Flint.J

Pros:

• Lots of tasking for Helios tonight. Just about everything we cover during training and SPs was done in full effect tonight.
• Big shout-out to Second Lieutenant Mazinski.H for stepping up not only was he with us but also was running around as 7 as well.
• Worked closely with Banshee-1 and Bandits 1&2 giving us cover and support to get to them and clear obstacles out of the way under fire.
• Responded to the call to demo vics and supplies AO 1 with Bandit 2 giving us overwatch to prep and set off stack charges in the Demo/Triggerman roles
• Helped Bandit 1 with a MASCAS situation giving security and treating wounded.
• Call For Fires with 2nd AO came in at request and opportunities and were shot out in short timely manners. Lots of CFF missions with lots of targets that were engaged and neutralized effectively and most rounds were observed and splashed by me acting as a FO attached to Bandits 1&2 again.
• Another awesome night that Helios showed up in small numbers but proved the value we hold in the battle space and just how versatile we are.

Cons:

• N/A awesome event and coordination and most importantly smooth the whole time!

Element Callsign: BANDIT-2
Element Leader: Sergeant Clegg.M

Second Lieutenant Carr.W

Corporal Howe.T
Specialist Bagget.H
Specialist Brideau.J
Private First Class Max.G
Private First Class Strong.Z
AR.Brophy.C (RESERVES)
Elemtael ( Molitor.K )

Pros:

• FUN, FUN, FUN! Great feedback from all and great job S3/GM's on execution of a well balanced operation.
• After a month of convoy operations, felt good to kick in doors and take names.
• Inter squad communication was well executed.
• Both FTL's maintained cohesion of their fire teams and did all the things needed without prompt or hesitation. Made SL's job easy.
• Platoon leadership allowed SL's the freedom of execution on all OBJ's, which allowed squads to utilize the training to get the task done and make the decisions that dominated the battle space.
• Platoon and cross squad communication was on point tonight.
• SPC Baggett will forever be our morale booster during operations, thanks for the laughs!

Cons:

• Lane encroachment during final assault phase slowed the pace of the operation and the aggression of action.
• CQB was well executed on larger buildings and compounds, small building clearing was a little rusty and we will incorporate this into future training (2 inside to clear, 2 outside for security, fire teams rolls, etc.).
• Some OBJ's were larger than others, resulting in squad getting spread thinner than we would have liked. However, the GMS were able to balance the scale of the OBJ to the size of the assaulting force, and that was very well executed.
