A Troop tanks will identify and bypass enemy infantry and hand off targeting to the scouts. A Troop scout units will isolate and destroy enemy infantry with artillery and air support. A Troop ITV's will provide overwatch for the scouts and use thermals to assist in locating the enemy. A Troop will consolidate at Obj Reno and create a 1 Km zone free of enemy units. i) Maneuver: 1st and 3rd Plt will lead the advance across the Ely and Vegas bridges and across the FLOT. A Troop tanks will then advance quickly to Obj Reno. 2nd and 4th platoons will follow. ii) Fires: A Troop tanks will engage and destroy enemy armor.

TSe419E Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 (edited) I'll take a tank please. And, just to nit pick, it should be A Troop ( or Troop A or A Trp.). Cavalry platoons in this time frame had nine vehicles numbered from "0"-"8." The tanks were "4," "5," '7," and "8." The Scouts were "0"- "3" and the platoon leader was "6." At least in the units I served in. Edited July 3, 2018 by TSe419E 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
