Bravo Troop is a sub-unit level organization of the 1st Battalion, 7th Cavalry Regiment. It is administratively known as B/1-7, this abbreviation is used in MILPACS and avatars. It is comprised of three (3) Platoons, with 1st Platoon containing two (2) Sections of Tanks, 2nd Platoon containing three (3) Sections of Cavalry Scouts, and 3rd Platoon containing three (3) Sections of Combat Service Support and Health Service Support personnel.
Mission
Bravo Troop, 1st Battalion is an armor & cavalry sub-unit of the 7th Cavalry's First Battalion. The purpose of Bravo Troop is to find, fix, and destroy the enemy through direct and indirect fire; as well as providing reconnaissance and combat service support abilities as part of a larger coordinated operational structure. Primarily, our mission statement relies upon the sum of our pieces, we find the enemy with our Cavalry Scouts, we then fix them with supporting fire guided by our scouts, and the application of armor, before destroying them with a massed force. Simultaneously, our logistics and medical platoon resupplies, rearms and provides critical logistical or medical support.
Bravo Company MOS
19K - Armor Crewman
The 19 Kilo MOS, Armor Crewman, provides Reconnaissance and Security for 1st Battalion, 7th Cavalry in combat operations. As an Armor Crewman, members of this MOS are system experts on the M1A2 Abrams tank as well as other armored vehicles and dedicated to providing long-range eyes and heavy firepower to convoy missions and combined arms assaults. Whether rolling through town with closely-coordinated infantry squads, raining down fire from a tactically advantageous high ground, or thundering across the open plain to destroy enemy armor, the 19K MOS is recognized by its fierce destructive effects on the battlefield and respected for its role as the guardian of other friendly forces on the ground.
19D - Cavalry Scout
In the 7th Cavalry Gaming Regiment, the sole home of the Cavalry Scout is in 2nd Platoon, Bravo Troop, 1st Battalion. The Cavalry Scouts of 2nd Platoon will are highly trained in Mechanized Infantry tactics, but also specialize heavily as masters of reconnaissance, mobility, and evasion. Cav Scouts are deployed in advance of the rest of the main force by performing reconnaissance, security activities, calling in air support, and other front-line combat operations. As well as being attached to airborne and amphibious task forces.
As a Cavalry Scout, you will be trained to a superior standard higher than regular forces, establishing and building upon your experience and expertise. You will be cross-trained in the art of reconnaissance, mechanized tactics, calling in air support, and all crewman roles of the M2A3 Bradley Infantry Fighting Vehicle!
68W - Medical & Logistical Platoon
Our combat support platoon is the backbone of our operational ability, we rely upon these sections to perform critical combat resupply, medical treatment and Casualty Evaluation (CASEVAC) tasks. Often attached and working alongside our other companies, our service support platoon is critical to maintaining a high degree of combat effectiveness within our combat platoons. Within the platoon, itself are the logistical and medical branches (both under 68W within the CAV MOS system). Allowing trooper to train for both roles, if desired through our training resources.
