Planning for Goat Island game

This game was a ton of fun, and it was even better knowing that I had such a good group of guys to work with. You guys worked hard and were spot on, and did not get distracted by the at times long, uneventful waits between engagements. Honest to God, we have worked with players before that wandered off when they got bored, leaving us unknowingly exposed in their sector. Unit cohesion was very apparent. I knew that where I found one of us, I could easily find the rest in the area. Noise discipline was excellent, too. You guys did not chatter much at all while on the job. Way to go!!

I tried to stress target identification and communication, to avoid blue on blue or sparking off an unintended engagement with Ravenwood, and again everyone again did a great job on that.

Among the many highlights of this game, the assault on unfinished fort was memorable. We moved to a point just out of range of the defenders, and waited until our second force, SWC, staged up to their point off to the side. On command, we simultaneously commenced our assault on the fort from both sides and had it within mere minutes.

Many engagements at the white house, which made for an exciting time.

Sorry for hitting you ravenwood guys in your respawn area, we were careful to identify and observe for several minutes, but when you started forming up for the attack on Jericho, we could not let that happen. Unfortunately, we did did not know that you guys were where you were, or we would have let you get out of there first. The outcome would have been the same, though.

Sustain:
Focus on our mission
Noise discipline
Unit cohesion
Good communication
Target ID
Good working relationships with other teams
Good break contact drill at the end of the day.

Improve:
Find a darker shemagh, Grant. White is really noticable.
I will remember to jeep a flashlight on my gear next time.
Tactical defogger works! It is cheep, I recommend that everyone get one.
I will try to take more pics and videos.

I hope that Matt, Daniel and Jim had a good time and will return to play with us!
