Commander's Intent
Intent is to destroy or capture soviet desants and investigate the HQ and its garrison in Kiiskenkylä. Should the enemy force be overwhelming then the plan is to break contact and pull back to reconsolidate and reorganise ourselves.

Tasks and Sequencing
ALL CALLSIGNS will line up for brief at startex. Combat engineer will primarily carry AT grenades, AP mines if there is space. Ammo bearers will carry molotovs in addition to resupply for their team. PHASE 1 ALL CALLSIGNS will mount up on bicycles and step off towards DZ Nummijärvi following the black line and will hold at every RP to get the go ahead from the FL to continue . Bicycles will be parked on the side of the road. Once dismounted KNIGHT will bound towards OP Roomba and try to get eyes on the POI. Should we take contact then we will instead begin assaulting the POI right away. KNIGHT 1-1 will set BOF and dig in at OP Roomba. Should the objective be more than a house, KNIGHT 1-1 will move to assist 1-2 in clearing the POI . KNIGHT 1-2 will maneuver west of 1-1 moving towards the POI to clear the first building and set BOF for 1-1 to move up and help them clear the POI . PHASE 2 Once the POI is clear, KNIGHT will return to DZ Nummijärvi to mount up and move on to DZ Karhu, dismount and move to OP Surnumäki, visually understand the situation and if required move to support or help the garrison at Kiiskinkylä. Should it be enemy controlled KNIGHT will continue with the same maneuver plan as for PHASE 1 and clear the town starting from the north side. KNIGHT 1-1 will set BOF and dig in at OP Surnumäki. Once 1-2 make it to the first set of houses 1-1 will move up and help clear the town . KNIGHT 1-2 will maneuver north of 1-1 moving towards the town to clear the first building and set BOF for 1-1 to move up and help them clear the town . PHASE 3 Should we need to break contact and retreat, then the combat engineer is going to place AP mines to halt the enemy chasing us. If everything goes to plan and we have destroyed all soviet desants we will RTB and ENDEX.
