5. Recommendations

Intelligence: Enhance intelligence gathering to better anticipate enemy capabilities and tactics, particularly regarding flanking maneuvers and infiltration attempts.
Reinforcements: Consider requesting additional support, such as armored units, for future engagements against heavily armed enemies.
Communication: Emphasize the importance of clear and consistent communication throughout the operation, particularly during dynamic situations.
Medical Evacuation (MEDEVAC): Review MEDEVAC procedures to ensure timely and efficient evacuation of wounded personnel in future engagements.
6. Conclusion
Despite heavy losses, the unit successfully prevented the enemy from capturing Collective Farm 19. However, the operation revealed vulnerabilities in intelligence gathering, communication, and force structure when facing a well-equipped and coordinated adversary. The recommendations outlined above aim to mitigate these vulnerabilities and enhance the unit's effectiveness in future operations.
