Spoiler

Platoon Leader: Overall commander of all friendly forces and responsible coordinating the smooth execution of the mission and directing the flow of battle. Platoon Leaders act as a focal point for all information in the AO. Lose the Platoon Leader, Coordination and Situational Awareness soon deteriorate.

Platoon RTO: Platoon Radio Telephone Operators are responsible for the smooth, expeditious and correct transmission of information to and from Platoon HQ. RTOs also have the responsibility to coordinate all air assets, give real time information to the Platoon Leader (fuel/ammunition, and of what type remaining) and coordinate air support with forward ground units.

 

Platoon Medic: Responsible for the medical needs of the Platoon HQ and supplementing the individual medical capabilities of any squad when needed. Medics are the exception to the "rifleman first" ethos. You cannot treat the casualty if you are the casualty.

 

Squad Leader: Leader of their squad, and responsible for executing orders given by the Platoon HQ. Duties involve organising the squad, and ensuring relay of all information to and from Platoon HQ. As with Platoon Leader they act as the focal point for all information for the squad.

 

Team Leader: Responsible for the execution of the Squad Leaders command and the effective use and the 4 men in their team. The senior Team Leader in a squad will also act as 2 I/C of the Squad, should squad Leader become incapacitated.

 

Situation

While back at Vung Tau Airfield preparing for the final assault on the enemy positions we are alerted to a large enemy attack aimed at the 1ATF Base to the North. We are being mobilised to repel this attack and drive them back. As we assemble we are notified that the enemy have overrun the airfields defences and have advanced all the way to the city of Ba Ria. In the 2 hours since capturing the town we are aware that they have brought in significant manpower to hold their gained territory. Ba Ria is a vital cross road and is essential to the security of the region. We must recapture it. To aid in this you are to be given one of the newly delivered M551 Sheridan light tanks.

@LH5 @Xwatt what we thinkin

Quote

The vehicle designed to mount the gun had a steel turret and aluminum hull. Although the hull could defeat heavy machine gun fire of up to 12.7mm AP,[14] it was easily defeated by rocket propelled grenades, which could destroy the vehicle if the spalling contacted the caseless main gun rounds. Like the M113 armored personnel carrier, it was also vulnerable to mines.
