--- OPERATIONS ORDER ---

Situation

Background Information
Following Sealion, Trident lands in the third wave to keep our momentum up. First, to relieve the exhausted Sealion and Bishop callsigns, then to push further south and secure the perimeter islands once and for all. Loyalist forces are still holding out on the southern most point of Porto Pyano, rescuing them is high priority.

Friendly Forces
Trident Platoon comprised of: Platoon element with Coyote attached 9-man squad with Mastiff attached Weapons team with Mastiff attached MERT is on standby now that the AA threat is dealt with. Friendly AA is provided by callsign Thunder.

Supporting Assets
Loyalist platoon holding out in the south, several calls for aid, as they're low on ammo and other essential supplies.

Enemy Forces
Paramilitary forces garrisoning the towns, Deserters occupying military structures and sending QRFs. Armoured vehicles up to BMPs. Expect the enemy to hold their positions fiercely.

Mission

Tasking
Step off from the improvised staging area and link up with Bishop callsign. Once they've safely retreated, continue pushing further inlands and attempt to rescue the Loyalist platoon in the south, while achieving our Objectives along the way.

End-state
Mission success: Loyalists rescued and islands secure. Mission failure: Friendly forces overrun or island still in the hand of the Rebellion.

Execution

Commander's Intent
The purpose of this mission is to wholly secure the island chain Northwest of Panthera. We will also be making contact with and assisting the withdrawal of a clandestine unit and an allied loyalist platoon. OBJECTIVE NEPTUNE - Friendly SF team in need of rescue OBJECTIVE URANUS - Enemy supply port OBJECTIVE VENUS - Enemy held research facility OBJECTIVE PLUTO - Enemy reserve motor pool

Tasks and Sequencing
PHASE 0 Equipment prep, muster and briefings. Where not otherwise stated, Trident 1 will act as lead squad, moving to close with and destroy the enemy. Trident 2 will act as static fire support, suppressing and providing flank security. PHASE 1 Observe for enemy movement before crossing bridge, utilising fire suppression or mortar smoke rounds if deemed necessary. Secure area labelled RV-ALPHA. Trident 1 to move South through Objective Neptune in order to make contact with and exfiltrate BISHOP. Following, platoon will move around the North end of the island and secure the town of Melara. Trident 2 will set up to cover Trident 1 crossing the SouthWest bridge and commence a mortar bombardment of COP Melara. PHASE 2 Following bombardment, Trident 1 is to secure a bridgehead up to RV Charlie, pausing to allow supporting elements to catch up. They will then proceed SouthWest to clear objectives Uranus and Venus. Trident 2 will position itself to support while also acting as a blocking force for any QRF dispatched from FOB Rubina. A fire mission will be called onto FOB Rubina prior to Trident 1 moving in to sweep clear. PHASE 3 Trident 1 will clear Citta Rubina North to South under cover from Trident 2. Upon approach of Objective Pluto, they will push quickly and eliminate the possibility of enemy forces manning vehicles staged there. Upon completion of phase 3, all callsigns will converge on Porto Pyano in order to relieve the allied loyalists there.
