--- OPERATIONS ORDER ---

Situation

Background Information
After a daring SF operation to demine parts of the CSAT minefields surrounding Limni, CHARLIE COMPANY is now assaulting Kalochori and Paros using the momentum gained earlier in the morning. Expect: A highly kinetic operation with a fair bit of CQB. Ideal if gunners in the vehicle crew have Western Sahara DLC.

Friendly Forces
A platoon from Charlie Company, consisting of: 2x rifle squads 4x Marshalls

Supporting Assets
ALPHA Company, 2nd Battalion 136th Regiment, is in defensive posture at CAMP HERCULES, and has recently suffered casualties due to heavy artillery barrages. BRAVO Company will, in a shaping operation to support CHARLIE COMPANY, attack and seize Nifi. However, due to vulnerabilities along the Western frontlines, BRAVO will then withdraw as CHARLIE advances, and retake defensive positions along the Western frontline. ECHO Battery is located southeast of Chalkeia, prioritising fire missions from CHARLIE and DELTA. 2nd Battalion’s main logistical hub is situated in the quarry south of Pyrgos. This hub was recently raided by a CSAT SOF team. A command node controlling the frontlines is located in Ekali. NATO commanders have decided that we now need to retake the momentum, and has decided that the most beneficial avenue of approach is in the direction of Kolochori and Paros.

Enemy Forces
Kalochori and Paros are heavily defended by entrenched infantry and mechanised units. Rotary and fixed wing units were spotted in the AO during Operation Orion. CSAT is now expecting a full-fledged attack and is already scrambling due to the events unfolding in Operation Orion.

Mission

End-state
Paros seized and undeniably under NATO control.

Execution

Commander's Intent
The purpose of this mission is to clear CSAT from the towns of Kalochori and Poros, effectively cutting off CSAT forces in the North East peninsula

Tasks and Sequencing
CHARLIE 1 CHARLIE 2 PHASE 0 ALL CALLSIGNS will mount up in APCs provided by KILO 9 at EM1 and proceed in convoy on BLUFOR line toward PHASE 1. Convoy Order KILO 1 (GREEN) -> CHARLIE 1-1 KILO 9 (GREEN) -> CHARLIE 1-2/CHARLIE 1 CHARLIE 9 KILO 2 (BLUE) -> CHARLIE 2-1 KILO 3 (BLUE) -> CHARLIE 2-2/CHARLIE 2 LIMA 4 PHASE 1 If not contacted, ALL CALLSIGNS will proceed to DM1-P(rimary), disembark and step off towards their respective APs. If engaged en route, ALL CALLSIGNS will PUSH THROUGH to DM1-S(econdary) unless specified by convoy commander. Once at DM points, CHARLIE 1 and CHARLIE 2 will step off and conduct a combined assault on SECTOR-1A to clear the defensive line and get to the town, with CHARLIE 1 taking SECTOR-1B and CHARLIE 2 going North to deal with SECTOR-1C. KILO 9 will provide flank protection on the North and South, and deal with the remains of any CSAT forces in Defensive lines 1 & 2 if any. The city will likely be heavily defended and ALL CALLSIGNS should expect to make slow progress FLRP1 will serve for vehicle rearm and repairs unless specified otherwise by the LSC PHASE 2 Having captured OBJ SILVER, ALL CALLSIGNS will rearm from FLRP2, and move to AP2 via the BLUFOR lines. The way will likely be quite open, so it is imperative that BLUFOR utilize any and all cover, smoke, and suppression from KILO 9 to move to AP2. From there, they will clear respective SECTORs, with CHARLIE 1 taking the Western SECTORS (B,D&F) and CHARLIE 2 taking the Eastern SECTORS (A,C,E). KILO 9 will again provide support on any key targets from flanks. ENDEX upon capture and control of OBJ GOLD
