All commands are to ensure OPSEC throughout rank and file. 3d MRB, A-Co with reinforced assets will immediately redeploy to the USS Kidd DDG-100, currently holding on the border of international waters offshore DPRL territory in the Baltic Sea, and will standby for imminent combat operations. 160th SOAR, 1st-BN and support will immediately redeploy to the 22nd Tactical Air Base in Malbork Poland and standby for imminent combat operations. Briefing to Follow: The Democratic Peoples Republic of Livonia (DPRL) has blamed the Republic of Livonia (ROL) for the death of their dictator Nikolay Dragomirov in a helicopter crash. Previous intel suggested a roughly even chance of civil war within the DPRL or an assault on the ROL. There are now confirmed reports of artillery barages into the ROL and appear to be preperations underway for further hostile action. USEUCOM is deploying USSOCOM assets to silence the artillery barrages and conduct kinnetic action designed to deter the DPRL from escalating into a larger conflict. The large scale deployment of US forces or a conventional conflict in Europe is not desired. Consequently, it is paramount to maintain a low profile during kinetic strikes and focus action on providing deterrents. Expect a full operational brief and specific near-term combat operations to be forwarded from EUCOM shortly. Good luck and Godspeed gentlemen. Signed, General Thomas A.

A full event schedule has been attached. 3d MRB, A-Co and 160th SOAR, 1-BN, have been selected as the reactionary USSOCOM forces available to USEUCOM for the duration of this excersize. The EUCOM threat brief lists the rogue state actor South Livonia as their highest present threat. The latest intelligence estimates place significant escalation at ~34% or unlikely. A full brief will be forwarded from Eurocom in the next few days. Prepare your forces accordingly. A full operational brief for FTX Cold Winds will be provided after report-in. As per previous discussions, expect Swedish command to field their own SOF units for OPFOR as well as their usual contribution to BLUFOR. I have been asked to instruct our OPFOR units to plan on teaching their counterparts as they conduct operations.
