Sarge was an amazing leader and kept everyone on track and ready for fire from anywhere at any time.

Amazing Blue team leadership
Written by Admin
Candid
Maintained their perimeter under constant pressure sweeping areas of suspected enemy activity and acting with initiative and courage under intense fire. Acted with aggression and brought enfilading fire on a concerted enemy push at correct moment even when threatened by artillery barrage, stopping push and securing objective.

Disco
Held a concerted enemy push against vastly superior odds. Placing fire team members in optimal positions and withdrawing to new ground when potential to be overrun. Acted with courage and leadership throughout.

For finding and rescuing Misstep when he'd been left behind, and without any further orders going to get him, stabilise him, and bring him back to the helicopter.

Misstep
Was great at following directions and saved my ass while I was bandaging from getting shanked point blank. Damn good.

Kept everyone going with a very minimal use of medical supplies. Was everywhere he needed to be when he needed to be there.

Bungalow
Retrieved wounded Marines from firefight whilst under risk of being overrun and withdrew then to be treated. Was then forced to defend wounded against Chelt infiltrators killing several before returning to treatment of casualties they had rescued.

With fire team sustaining critical casualties, provided intense suppression allowing extraction of wounded Marines, sustaining injuries as a result of her actions and continued to maintain fire, driving off the assault and allowing time for QRF to react.

Wrench
Whilst underfire, improvising ways to remove enemy IED within key objective area allowing safe movement of civilians and marines through choke points. Counterattacked enemy push that penetrated outer perimeter and held long enough for other fire teams to react, sustaining several wounds but not quitting position until friendly elements had stabilised defensive line.
