SITUATION

13th MEU will conduct a final push to clear Tanoa of Russian Forces. 3d MRB & 160th SOAR assets will assist by destroying OPFOR along the Western flank.

 

ENEMY:

OPFOR attempted to conduct a scorched earth withdrawal to the N side of Tanoa. Bridges have been knocked out and mines or other obstacles and ambushes have likely been left behind them.

 

OPFOR units that have survived the withdrawal are strongpointing the N side of the island and are being pushed back by advancing BLUFOR units.

 

FRIENDLY:

13th MEU Air assets, after receiving timely intel regarding OPFORs withdrawal, immediately conducted surge air operations in response. This has resulted in OPFOR sustaining significant losses during their withdrawal.

 

Bravo Company successfully conducted an air assault and secured the connection between the mainland and the staging area. Alpha Company has moved across along with mechanized assets to reinforce.

 

Alpha and Bravo Companies are conducting assaults on the right flank pushing through the enemy defenses from E to W. 

 

MISSION

MSOT 8311 Legion, supported by the 160th SOAR, 1.5 hours following the main assault, will

1. Assault the enemy position along the western coast IOT

Tighten the Western security position & decisively engage retreating enemy units

 

Given the timing of the assault, expect the enemy position to be reinforced by retreating units from the E and S.

 

If MSOT 8313 is unable to accomplish their secondary objective, those positions may need to be destroyed prior to conducting the main assault.

 

RECONNAISSANCE

The reconnaissance picture is provided using SIGINT, IMINT & HUMINT from 13th MEU Assets.
