Commendations

Assaulted enemy ambush position overwatching the road the convoy needed to advance along. The position, heavily reinforced with AT missiles, RPGs was on a cliff above the road. Cat assaulted up the road, out flanked the enemy positions knocked an AT position out with a grenade and then held off the enemy counter-attack until relieved by other elements of EGR.

Providing danger close air support on enemy concentrations to allow EGR to clear enemy blocking positions. Greensquare had to liaise with allied pilots and FAC with limited intel of enemy and friendly positions, often underfire and with limited views of target. Strikes were successful in eliminating many from the fire-fights and EGR completed their mission objective.
