Commendations

Radical
Communicating effectively that friendly air was engaging too close to the squad when the RO was out of action.
Written by Admin
Candid
PFC Candid took over as squad sergeant after the death of Radical. Under immense stress, immediately stepped up and led the squad without a map. Was pivotal in the effective management of the team, and distinguished themself in a way few can.

Candid
Fantastic Leadership when the Sargent went down, was really needed to bring it all back together

Scatter
After sustaining critical damage to his airframe, any lesser pilot would have been forced to bail out but not Captain Scatter. He managed with great effort and excellent piloting skill to fly his damaged Bronco several kilometres back to the airfield enter the landing pattern and land it without any further injury or damage.

Chaos
Effectively utilized artillery to destroy several AAA positions and a comm tower. Kept a vital link open to CAS assets.

Chaos
Good air to ground comms which (for the most part) kept us apprised of the squad's location and priorities to target

Misstep
Bravely shielded the LT and Bungalow with his body, shielding them from hundreds of bullets. Without his selfless meatshielding, the squad would have been left without a medic or leadership.

Bungalow
Awesome triage, keeping... some of us alive. Brutal mission, and Bungalow is my hero.

Wrench
Exceptional accuracy with airstrikes. With cannons, rockets and cluster munitions, always on target.

Also dutifully followed me when my badly damaged aircraft might not have made it back to base.
