3 Commando Brigade

Leadership and command

fantastic contribution... always cool to get rl stuff written down.

Did you leave cadets ? Take it any further?

Nice, you'll get Scimitars then the new SCOUT !!

Cool

Would be good to get a dedicated section on our Wiki for all these I think ?

Really nice resource for players wanting to get more structure into their briefings or get some assistance with structuring a leadership role

If you don't mind an outsider chipping in, you may find the NATO sequence of orders and Quick Battle Orders (albeit with some tweaking for in game) useful. Probably more useful for 3CB specific things than public server goings on.

Excuse the long post!


NATO Sequence of Orders
These are more for Troop level operations. Tp Comds receive Coy Comd orders and then deliver a set of Tp Comd orders to their troop.

Prelims

• Information related to O(rders) Group: Location, DTG
• Security + actions on

Command & Signals

• Frequencies, callsigns, smoke, pyro and/or illum outlined.

Quick Battle Orders
Aimed more at the section level but outlines everything from order of march to actions on for each specific section. This is long winded but can be broken down substantially. I've taken out some things that don't translate into game.

Don't think it does any harm mate . More info the better really - even if it has been discussed in the past. Always a nice little refresher for those folks who may not have originally read it. 

Nice one Redders... !
