Record Text
During Shaping Effort 8, Wizards was tasked with eliminating an AA and Mortar position that would have jeopardized 1st platoon assault on the OBJ. While moving up SPC M.Alther spotted 2 SPAA’s and a tank inside of the OBJ. The squad was quickly split up so SPC Alther, SPC Koe, and SPC Anderson could go within visual distance to kill the targets while the other Fireteam could kill the Mortars. During this time. The other FT was ambushed by 2 squads of enemy recon teams and was pinned in place. SPC Alther quickly grabbed his FT and after a brief gunfight, they pushed through the recon teams killing them all. Without his leadership and quick thinking, 3 members of Wizards would have been KIA.
