So yesterday I held the last field training session for the Task Force Battle Group for the large Muskoka mil sim later in May and I am quite happy with how things went. Tings started with the guys being tentative with everything but as the day progressed you could see the confidence level build. I think the people who attended learnt that aggressiveness is vital, when you run into an ambush you have to push past the kill zone, if not and you try to fight from that area you’re pretty much as good as dead. Another key point to take away from yesterday’s training session for the guys is to communicate with each other. The individual fireteams know what they’re doing but coordination between fireteams isn’t up to where I’d like.

I wish I ran a few more of these training sessions, my platoon is full of unknowns whom do not regularly play with each other but that’s how the cards are played sometimes. I have no doubt though that my team will be able to accomplish any task I receive from command. 🙂

Op Sec from the other team has been poor and intel indicates that they’re really a bunch of skirmishers and I think they’ll fade as the game goes on.
