Mission
Our mission is to provide an environment for all future and current members to gather together to enjoy Hell Let Loose with one another. We are a very active Company; we host multiple weekly internal/external PVP Events and conduct several School of Infantry classes designed to engage you with others inside and outside of our Company.
| Military Occupational Specialties | Description |
| Infantry Officer (11A) | The infantry officer is responsible for leading Platoons within Baker Company. Ensuring the readiness of troopers and crewmen. Troopers that serve as an infantry officer have priority for leadership positions in operations. |
| Infantry (11B) | The Infantry are experts in individual skill and teamwork coordination.
Through larger platoon actions, whether in defense or offense, the infantry squad utilizes all member classifications to overwhelm the enemy and seize the objective. Members of the Infantry are masters in land warfare, communication, and tactical movement. In the Infantry, every member is a rifleman first and a specialist second. As a trooper, each rifleman will train extensively on marksmanship, control over their weapon systems, and team battle drills. Additionally, troopers train in coordination with other support elements to improve our combined arms operations. |
| Infantry (11B) - Airborne | Airborne is the tip of the spear, leading the battle in every way.
Airborne is deployed in small team actions, targeting vital enemy assets, and assaulting enemy objectives in support of larger infantry activities. Members of the airborne are infantry first and recon second, picking and choosing engagements that are in their favor, and relaying crucial information to other elements of the operation. In the Airborne, troopers will cross-train in basic infantry skills and reconnaissance. Troopers may be required to fight in environments that provide no additional support elements behind enemy lines. |

History
Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare (2007)
One of the earliest game areas of operations (AO) in recorded history for B/2-7 history is COD 4, which served the company from as early as 2008 through August of 2014. The COD AO had numerous combat operations against enemy clans that resulted in 3 Presidential Unit Citations for the Regiment, at least 1 Meritorious Unit Citation, and 1 Army Superior Unit Citation. The AO hosted a variety of specializations and courses, including the legendary Sniper Course (SRT) and Ranger Selection. Several former members of B/2-7 Company Staff went on to serve the Regiment in higher leadership, including one of the four named GOA's, General of the Army (Retired) Scott Bahama who served as the Regimental Commander from February 10th, 2014 to April 15th, 2014.
Insurgency (2014)
