Section IC

The role of a Section IC is to lead his men while in the field. He will be in direct radio contact with his platoon's Officer in Charge or Warrant Officer, as well as with other section leaders nearby. The orders he receives from his platoon OC are given in a way to allow him some freedom in how he will approach, assault and take an objective. During the approach, he is responsible for issueing orders, relaying contact reports and directing the section's fire all while listening to his Platoon Net.

When not in the field, the IC's role is to provide training to his men, reinforcing lessons learned and teaching new ones that will benefit the performance of the section.
