May the 2ID MRT class is
the 9-12th, childcare will be
provided all four days. Re-
member the goal here is to
make a resilient couple so
that we can all "survive"
Korea. Living here is a won-
derful experience but also
hard work. I thank everyone
for their participation and
look forward to seeing you
all at our next meeting. And

The month of March was
quite busy! We had our
monthly FRG/team building
exercise, which was very
informational and fun. We
discussed and planned up-
coming events and also the
fundraiser which will help
support the Easter Celebra-
tion taking place 23 April.
Alpha Co. is amazing. Our
soldiers work hard and our
spouses always step up and
show support. Over the last
field exercise the Alpha
spouses baked and donated
all the goodies for our sol-
diers. Our Soldiers were so
happy to receive a little love
from home. Next month, as I
mentioned before, is our
Easter celebration, consist-
ing of a Easter egg hunt,
magician, and bouncy
house for the kids. I hope
everyone will come out and
enjoy a Saturday with
friends. For the month of
Family Readiness Corner
Headquarters Platoon “We Set the Standard!” The Assassin Headquarters
Platoon started off the month
of March with the Key Resolve
Exercise. Headquarters per-
sonnel supported the three
week exercise and came back
ready to go the field. CPT Gil-
foil, the company commander
served at Camp Carroll as a key
logistician during the exercise.
In addition, the Headquarters
Platoon stood up the Battalion
Driver’s Program. SSG
Nguyen and SGT Collins the
Battalion Master Drivers and
SGT Phenis the company mas-
ter driver started the program
from scratch. In one month
during the Key Resolve Exer-
cise and throughout the Iron
Stampede Field Exercise (FTX)
the Master Drivers Trained 41
Soldiers.
This month the Headquarters
Platoon welcomes two new
Katusas PV2s Lim and Chung
and one new Soldier, SPC
Robles to the Assassin Team,
Welcome!
The Headquarters Platoon,
continued its hard work follow-
ing the Key Resolve Exercise
during the Battalion Field Exer-
cise. We coordinated the suc-
cessful deployment of the Com-
pany to and from the field with
zero incidents.
During the FTX the Headquar-
ters Platoon kept very busy
conducting NBC, Weapons,
Communications, Site Occupa-
tion and Driver’s Training all in
only 10 days. Also, SGT Bow-
man, SPC Forester and SPC
Rock teamed up to create the
first field Decon/Shower Opera-
tion in the history of the 302d
BSB. Their hard work enabled
Soldiers to maintain proper
field hygiene, and the warm
water lifted morale and spirits.
The Headquarters Platoon
capped their awesome per-
formance in March by coordi-
nating the successful re-
deployment and recovery op-
erations of the company by
bringing all of the Soldiers of
Alpha Company safely home
As always, we set the Stan-
dard, Assassin 5 out!

This has been an very exciting
month for the Assassin Trans-
portation Platoon. There has
been a leadership change but
the high speed tempo is still
the blood line that keeps the
Platoon meeting and exceeding
the standards with SSG Bass
leading the way. The first week
of March there has been a se-
ries of BII layouts to inspect the
level of each squad’s readiness
along with SSA support to keep
the BDE supplied. The second
week the Platoon es-
tablished preparations
for the Battalion led
FTX which include PCC
and PCI’s of all needed equip-
ment and personal gear so
that the mighty Roll Out Platoon
will achieve the upmost suc-
cess. Week three was the busi-
est week of the month with
base set up, base defense,
intensive NCO to Soldier train-
ing, to end with the friendly
completion of a traditional
two man teamed Truck
Rodeo. In the closing week
of March the Platoon “Roll
Out “ continued FTX Iron
Horse Stampede as if it had
just began with an addi-
tional Truck Rodeo that
incorporated the rest of the
Assassin Family and a Flat
Rack movement from Camp
Casey to Camp Carroll with
flawless results. This marks
the beginning of a dynasty. Be
sure to read next months jour-
nal. Assassin 17 OUT!
and the clinch drill. March ended
with Iron Horse Stampede, a ten
day field training exercise (FTX).
The FTX focused training at the
squad and platoon level. The
Fuel Section conducted job skill
training, land navigation, marks-
manship and radio communica-
tions. The Water Section honed
their skills on the Tactical Water
Purification System. A detach-
ment from the Water Section
traveled well south of Area I to
provide water and critical training
For Third Platoon, Alpha Com-
pany, March was packed with
high intensity training and exer-
cises. The month began with the
annual Key Resolve Exercise in
full swing. Third Platoon provided
drivers, guards and an operations
officers in Daegu, Yongsan,
Camp Casey and CP TANGO.
Upon completion of Key Resolve,
3rd sent 10 Soldiers for a week
long Combatives Level I course
where they stoked their Warrior
Ethos with grappling, choke holds
to Alpha
Company,
602d ASB
