Pasibe take pictures There is no need to meet on Monday, but do review STX operations and ask any questions that you may have. If you will not be at lab, notify myself via so that I can replace you and you need to tell the PMS too. There is a possibility that we may need to combine squads due to the small number of squad members per squad. This will be based on the revised PLT rosters from Bashant, so stand by on that decision. If we need to break down squads we will break apart 3 rd and 4 th squad from 2 nd PLT and add them to the existing squads evenly. We need to have full squads (9 members).

SQD Tactics 2 MS IIs – I was told by Maj Longoria that the MS IIs will be going to SJER on Wednesday instead of partaking in the lab. If this is true we will need to adjust accordingly with the squads. – We also need a two man team that can assist Maj Longoria while at SJER. Preferably individuals who have done well at Land Nav, but cannot be a lane walker. – He wants to only use 3-4 points and do a step by step process for the MS IIs. – I can set this up for him if this is what is going to happen.

Squad Tactics #3 The jogging phase of STX – Same format is previous lab – At O'Neill Park – MS IIIs will conduct a STX lane from start to finish for an Ambush, Mvmnt to Contact, Raid, Attack, and Recon with MS IV guidance – There will be an instructor for each class level – This lab will require full participation from all MS IVs – One MS IV over watch the MS III (SL), MS IV over watch MS II (TML) & MS I (SQD members), but stay as a squad Personal instruction attention to detail MS I and IIs do not wander around without a purpose
