Commendations

Slump
Acting as pointman PFC Slump worked tirelessly to provide forward intel for the squad as it advanced, as well as taking point as the unit breached rock outposts.

Sunray
General note for the unit: multiple rapid securing and treatment of casualties meant medic only had to monitor them as they came round, resulting in less drain of medical resources and retention of unit mobility on several occasions.

Sauceman
Tracked down and led us to rocks. Many rocks. Slump thinks rocks good.

Overkill
LCpl Overkill stepped up from support into a pro-active leadership role upon the incapacitation of Sgt Sauceman. His drive kept the unit moving forwards and prevented a loss of momentum on critical assaults of heavily fortified positions.

Morse
During a defense of casualties while holding enemy rock tunnels against a counter-attack, her positioning meant she shielded a medic treating a second medic form taking any shrapnel wound from numerous grenades, allowing the unit to recover without additional serious casualties from this position.

Tubular
During the assault of one of the 'loaded with fuck-o's rocks', Tubular proceeded to fill the entire rock with smoke of the spicy variety. The didn't like that. Successfully made the enemy flee the rock right into the rest of the squad.
