    Areas of Strength

    Team members that were present did an exceptional job in CQB and working together to clear the Objectives.

    Areas of Weakness

    Attendance still seems to be an issue but every member that was not present had a valid TPR with real life issues tied into the reason why they were not present. I expect attendance to begin to move up in the future.

    Suggested Improvements

    Squad loadouts need to be slightly standardized. It will be more for new members and TL's need to have them saved to give to new members if they join the Squad the day of an OP (like what happened with us today and the new PVT not having Nods).

    Mission Summary

    First Squad took the lead to OBJ Speedbump where we staged in the northern most position IOT assault across the OBJ. Clearing OBJ Speedbump was smooth and little to no injuries were taken even with heavy fighting present. OBJ Pothole essentially had the same results but again Scorpions showed great teamwork as we moved together through our sector to complete the OBJ. The last OBJ Scorpions hit an issue when we remained to assist Platoon leadership in securing a LZ for resupply as well as secure the FO. Once we cleared the building where the FO was held, some sort of explosion went off and 2 members of Scorpions went down (myself and the medic). My other team leader attempted to secure the area while Ghosts moved to reinforce but lost another member in the process. SPC Ivanov attached to Ghosts and continued on mission. When the rest of Scorpions returned to the fight we continued to clear OBJ Traffic Jam effectively.
