Leading
Every Coalition company member is expected to lead at some point. Whether it's just a Fireteam lead or vehicle command slot every now and then, or getting a "Field promotion" in the middle of a firefight. Without Good leadership a combat group will not last long.
What to do as a leader:
- Make a plan. Change it as needed "No plan survives contact with the enemy".
- Always keep track of your command. Losing contact with someone you are responsible for is bad for both ends.
- Communicate. The chain of command is just a funnel of info to the top. Remember to keep it relevant and brief though. see communication guide for more
- Have a designated 2nd in command if possible. If you go down the faster the command is picked up the better.
- Know your assets, and use them accordingly. Give those RATs and ARs designated targets!
- Use your SOP's, Formations, and tactics to your advantage.
- Keep your head down as much as possible. The longer the chain of command stays intact, the longer everyone knows what is going on.
- Do not be afraid to micromanage when it is needed.
