TERRAIN: Trees and hills

SITUATION

Enemy Forces:
1-2 will be operating in the northern territories, inclusion of all three faction territories.

Friendly Forces:

Local police forces

Higher Command’s Mission:
Bring stability to the region

High Commander’s Intent:
Bring stability through relations with the locals, rather than fighting the locals.

MISSION

1-2 is tasked with handling Intel objectives 1 and 2. In addition 1-2 will be conducting a combat patrol through the town of Lorica to the northwest of 1-2's FOB location.

EXECUTION

Phase 1:

1-2 will be starting at their FOB and getting in contact with the Community leader with the help of 1-4's interpreter. Dependent on what the community leader provides a potential FRAGO will be developed. If nothing is to come from the conversation, 1-2 will begin movement to the town of Lorica. 

Phase 2:

Once 1-2 has completed intel 1, they will begin their movement to the town of Lorica and conduct a combat patrol to weed out any potential direct threats to the people of the town and any potential incoming threats to 1-2's FOB. Once the combat patrol has been completed, 1-2 will begin movement to Objective 2.

Phase 3:

Once the combat patrol at Lorica has finished, 1-2 will begin movement to the Cathedral and get in contact with the church leader, "El Joven Papa" (The little pope). The leader has requested assistance with looters in the area. From there 1-2 will develop a FRAGO to handle said looters. Once completed, 1-2 will head back to the FOB

Task To Supporting Units:
ACE to provide transportation if needed for any developing FRAGO's

Fallujah

 

Platoon Level OPORD: OPN Door Kicker 003

 

1.  SITUATION

a.  Area of Interest. Fallujah.

b.  Area of Operations.  3 Enemy Held FOBs/Strongpoints within the city

 

(1)  Terrain.

(a)  Obstacles.

1.      LDAs and ODAs. Large number of LDA's with scattered ODA's throughout AO. Many LDA's in the inner city of Fallujah. Friendly Forces will utilize Urban MOUT Principles when encountering LDA's to mitigate risk when operating within the city. Many ODAs have enemy fortifications built to watch them which will attack friendly forces. Friendly forces will avoid LDAs and ODAs adjacent to known enemy locations where possible and utilize LDA and ODA crossing techniques to mitigate risk when dismounted.

2.      Urban Environment. Provide enemy advantage due to the offensive nature of this operation. Enemy patrols will likely hold defensive positions and conduct ambushes on friendly forces advancing through urban terrain. Friendly forces will utilize proper coordination amongst other units.

(b)  Avenues of Approach. Multiple roads leading in and out of the city, representing multiple chances of minor-moderate enemy fortifications/patrols. Rural areas outside of the city are significantly flat and lack terrain as cover.   Roads are to be avoided where possible but may not always be avoidable.

(c)  Key Terrain. Flat. Minor tree cover and rock formations surrounding the city. Buildings inside city will provide ample Cover and Concealment

(d)  Observations and Fields of Fire. AoAs, enterable buildings, and points of elevation will provide the best Observations and Fields of Fire throughout movement.

(e)  Cover and Concealment. Buildings, vegetation, and rock formations provide intermittent cover and concealment throughout the region. Friendly forces will utilize this to facilitate maneuvers during missions.

 

(2)  Weather: Early Morning, partial clouds

c.  Enemy Forces. Conventional standing military (TNA)

 

(1)  Disposition.

(a) Enemy forces are expecting to be assaulted, will fire on sight. 

(b)  Potential Civilian presence: None.

(c)  Friendly air assets will be able to provide ISR/CAS capabilities when needed.

 

 

(2)  Enemy Course of Action.

(a)  MLCOA. Enemy forces will use squad and platoon sized elements to conduct attacks and ambushes against friendly forces.  Mines and anti-vehicle threats will be utilized to disrupt friendly forces and impact ability to maneuver.

(b)  MDCOA. Enemy forces will use squad and platoon sized elements to occupy the city, and conduct operations against friendly positions.  Enemy forces may retreat, depending on disposition.

 

2.  MISSION

NLT 1600 10FEB2024 Avenger 1 will conduct an airborne operation to seize an enemy held airfield.

 

3.  EXECUTION

a.  Commander’s Intent.  To assist allied forces with the seizure of Fallujah.

b.  Concept of the Operation.  Decisive to this operation is seizing enemy held locations and eliminating enemy threat

c. Scheme of Maneuver.

 

(1) Phase 1, Air Assault Prep

Platoon will be seperating in to 3 Chalks and load in to 1 Chinook and 1 Pavehawk
Chalk 1 - 1-2 (Pavehawk)
Chalk 2 - 1-3 (Chinook)
Chalk 3 - 1-4 (Chinook)

Once organized and in our respective birds, platoon will make their way to OBJ Archer.

(2) Phase 2, OBJ Archer

Once the platoon makes landfall at LZ Saffron, they will begin their movement on the first fob. Method of infill will be dependent on 1-4 setting up a base of fire on a 2 story building just west of the FOB. Once base of fire is established, 1-2 and 1-3 will hop the HESCO barriers  just west of the Warehouse building inside of the FOB, directly east of 1-4's position. Once inside both squads will coordinate on clearing all buildings and conducting SSE. Once OBJ Archer has been cleared an LZ will be set up and platoon will be transported to OBJ Lancer using the same Chalk format.

(3) Phase 3, OBJ Lancer

Once platoon lands at LZ Cumin, they will make their movement to the western road, moving south towards the fob. Squads will use caution crossing LDA's and keeping eyes out in nearby buildings while make their western approach on the objective. The western side offers the best cover for entry with the consequence of having 2 bunkers looking down the street facing west. Squads will prioritize securing the entry area before making full ingress on the fob. From there squads will coordinate on clearance and SSE. Once complete, an LZ will be set up for transport to OBJ Rider using the same chalk format.

(4) Phase 3, OBJ Rider

1-2 will be landing at LZ Coriander and 1-3/1-4 will be landing at LZ Paprika to create an L Shaped assault on the FOB. Both squads will coordinate when set and assault the objective keeping communication up to mitigate friendly fire. Once complete platoon will be transported back to base for ENDEX.

(5): Notes.

ODA will be deploying 30 minutes early to assault the hotel and secure HVTs.

ACE will be deploying 30 minutes early to fly Hitman

TERRAIN: Mountainous, Rocks, Trees, Bushes, River, Urban.

SITUATION: 72nd Forces have been tasked with assisting UN Peacekeepers in the South Sudan amid rising tensions between sovereign Eastern African Countries and the growing terror groups uniting in the region.

-Friendly Forces:
72nd Airborne, ACE, and ODA.  UN Peacekeepers. Italian Carabinieri

Higher Command’s Mission:

US Forces will assist an Italian/Ethiopian UN Peacekeeping detachment in ensuring short-term stability in the region while pushing Al-Kahanut back into their centralized base of operations within the south-eastern Malawi borders using various infantry, motorized, fixed-wing, and rotary-wing assets.

Execution:
ROE: YELLOW ( DO NOT FIRE UNLESS FIRED UPON )

1-1 will request ISR/CAS from ACE for convoy security and awareness. 
1-4 Alpha, will be attached to 1-1. 
1-1's Objective will begin at convoy start point in Ma'Arat. Objective is to have a presence patrol operating from Ma'Arat to Dayr Hafir. This 10-11 km convoy will travel through urban zones to assist with Humanitarian and Peacekeeping actions, as needed by locals. Potential FRAGO's are expected.

PHASE 1: 
Initial movement to CP WATERMELON will consist of IED Detection and Disposal on the bridge leading in to the town. Once the bridge is deemed clear, we will progress through CP WATERMELON assisting locals as needed. ACE will be requested to ISR on POI's 1-4.

PHASE 2:
After some intel is gathered, if POI's 1-4 have any actionable objectives/contact, 1-1 will proceed to clear out the POI's. However if no intel is gathered, 1-1 will progress through CP MANGO assisting locals as needed. The bridge at CP MANGO was destroyed a few days prior to our Objective, forcing us to go off road on our approach. Locals at CP Mango are expected to be indifferent towards our presence.After CP MANGO, 1-1 will progress to ORP Coconut to repack ammo/medical, as well as getting eyes on CP Dragonfruit.

PHASE 3:
After gaining recon on CP DRAGONFRUIT, 1-1 will clear the bridge of IED's and assist locals as needed. Once through CP DRAGONFRUIT, 1-1 will proceed on to Dayr Hafir, reacting to contacts if present. At Dayr Hafir, 1-1 will end convoy at the eastern Military Base and will standby for potential FRAGO's.



Additional Notes: 

-Requesting 1-4A bring M240 and Javelins. If able, 60mm Mortar, discretion left to SSG C. Davison.
-Convoy speed will be relatively slow to ensure IED clearance goes on without any casualties. On open road, speeds will be set to 35-40, in town speeds will be lowered to 15-25.
-No civilians are to be harmed. If a civilian is blocking our path, we will soft dismount and clear the roads of civilians. 
-IED Detection and Disposal will be handled by SPC M. Preik.
-If humanitarian assistance is requested, 1-6 and ACE will be informed.

Higher Command’s Mission:

US Forces will assist an Italian/Ethiopian UN Peacekeeping detachment in ensuring short-term stability in the region while pushing Al-Kahanut back into their centralized base of operations within the south-eastern Malawi borders using various infantry, motorized, fixed-wing, and rotary-wing assets.

Execution:

1-1 will request ISR via Predator Drone on OBJ Black Gold and its surrounding areas from ACE while moving on foot towards the objective. 1-1 will travel using terrain to mask movement towards ORP Alpha. At ORP Alpha, 1-1 will assess the intel gained from ACE and determine movement, pace and priority targets on Objective Black Gold and its surrounding areas.



Upon arrival at OBJ Black Gold, 1-1 will establish a foothold at INITIAL POINT and begin clearing outer compounds (Points: OIL RIG and OUTER COMPOUND) before moving in to the main compound. 1-1 will clear the main compound using Phase Lines 1&2 to reduce overextending of Fireteams.



After the Main compound has been cleared, Alpha and Bravo will establish security along the road south-east to prevent any potential enemy QRF elements, and if needed clear oil rigs. Once OBJ Black Gold and its surrounding areas have been cleared and swept for intel, 1-1 will request pickup from ACE and assist 1-2 with their objectives. 



Additional Notes: Based on UN ODC Intel, Al-Kahanut have been spotted occupying the buildings located at OBJ Black Gold, and mortars firing into the city from the open fields. 1-1 will need to prioritize Mortars to limit civilian casualties and allow HQ to conduct their meeting with Italian CO's and local Elders within the city.

WEATHER: Clear

TERRAIN: Farm fields, hill.

SITUATION: Avenger Company conducting COIN Operations in Sangin

-Friendly Forces:
72nd Airborne, ACE, and ODA.  ANA Commandos.

Higher Command’s Mission:

Avenger company is conducting patrols and route clearance, getting an idea of the situation on the ground and gathering intel.  The squads are going out to independent objectives all over the map and will likely not be able to assist each other without air transport.  All zones of the map have high levels of hostility and the likelihood of sporadic attacks and IEDs is very high.

Execution:

1-1 will be patrolling along route yellow spotting and disposing of IED's. During this time, 1-1 will also investigate 3 POI's that a LN has claimed Taliban dumping weapons in a grass field. Finally 1-1 will meet up with a farmer who reported that his combine hit an IED while tending to his poppy fields.

Objective 1:  1-1 is to be clearing of IED's along route yellow. Intel #2 indicates that ISR picked up a pair of individuals burying several IED's along route yellow in zone 4 throughout the night. 1-1 will be using route yellow as our primary path through the upcoming objectives, disposing of IED's along the way.

Along the route, Alpha will be splitting from the squad at CP YAYO to provide overwatch while Bravo disposes of IED's along the route and clears the 3 POI's.



Objective 2: Based on intel #3, a LN reports spotting Taliban dumping several weapons and crates in a grass field north of route yellow on the west side of the river. There are 3 POI's within this region that 1-1 will investigate.  Alpha will hopefully be able to spot and track down the location of the weapons and direct Bravo to their location. Otherwise, Bravo will investigate all fields, while Alpha keeps eyes out for enemies. 

After the 3 POI's have been investigated and dealt with, Bravo will move to secure RP Joint, while Alpha packs up overwatch and moves to the RP. Once at the RP, the squad will move as a whole due to flat terrain and limited usage of overwatch.

Objective 3 (AKA Objective Dragon Chaser):  According to Intel #8, a farmer from zone 4 reports hitting an IED with his combine while tending to his poppy fields that are adjacent to route blue. After RP Joint, 1-1 will move to CP Black Tar(a generalized "halfway" mark). Its in this zone that we anticipate a majority of the IED's to be appearing based on the intel piece #2. 

Once arriving at OBJ Dragon Chaser, 1-1 will communicate with the Farmer, sweep for IED's and set up security. After the area has been cleared of IED's, QRF will be called up to come and repair the farmers Combine. At this time 1-1 will be setting up defensive positions and standing by till QRF has completed repairing the farmers vehicle. Once the combine has been repaired, 1-1 will be setting up a PB at the south end of the irrigation ditch, due east of OBJ Dragon Chaser (Grid Ref: 23-43)
