Operation: Op Toreador Lady - Patrol around the roads by Ban Phiadouang. Land mines, rickshaws, and swarms of Chelt.

Commendation: On multiple occasions I observed Pvt Gucci demonstrating excellent marksmanship in defence of the squad medic who was treating serious casualties while under fire. Gucci's quick reactions and accurate fire prevented the medic from being attacked and without doubt saved lives.

I must however, query Gucci's MOS as his efficiency of rounds on numerous occasions fell well above the level expected of an 0331. - by Admin

Commendation: Top effort as pointman, making sure he exploded first so the rest of us didn't have to. - by Admin

Commendation: This is general commendation for consistent performance across numerous operations. In spite Of Gucci's inability to distinguish between officers and and the working class, Gucci has demonstrated great potential as a team leader. On a number of occasions he has stepped up to lead his fire team calmly and effectively under fire. Further to this, Gucci has displayed great talent as a pointman, able to navigate the squad through difficult terrain while balancing to tempo and cohesion. He may well be the prophesied one who brings balance to blue and yellow, hence my recommendation for promotion here as a step to making him truly green. Please don't tell him I was nice about him.
