Candidate Estrada Case Summary
Candidate Estrada, M. received the obstacle brief and only asked two question in order to clarify what he had missed. SNC wasted little time completing his notes and assessed the obstacle for a few moments before he briefed his team. His brief consisted of all the parts of the 5 paragraph order; however, he displayed lack of confidence in his tone of voice and gave a confusing brief that bounced around the 5 paragraph order. His decision making was slow during the execution and this was displayed through lack of communication to his team. SNC did not listen to the coordinating instructions very well, as he added they could not touch an area of the obstacle that was authorized, which was part of a previous scenario. The minimal communication

    On May 24, 1992, Ramon Flores was working at a gas station that was getting robbed and was shot and killed. The man charged with his murder was Michael R. Pulido. He was charged with first degree murder along the felony murder law. That law states that killing during the act of a felony, in this case a robbery, is automatically first degree murder.

    Candidate Spencer took the time to develop a plan and write his order prior to briefing. SNC briefed an extremely detailed five paragraph order, including an exhaustive Execution paragraph, and accurate information from higher’s warning order and fragmentary order. However, SNC spent 80% of his time prepping and briefing his order, showing an inability to effectively manage his time. Once SNC began executing the mission, he did not compensate for the time spent on his order, and his sense of urgency was lacking. SNC had a low frequency of verbal and non-verbal communication with his team and thus had some difficulty maintaining awareness and control of his team member’s movements. Upon consolidation, SNC controlled his security well, assigning…

    SNC’s order crossed the threshold of acceptable only because SNC mentioned the title of each of the five paragraphs in the five-paragraph order. SNC issued the order with neither confidence nor logic. SNC fabricated information pertaining to the leadership of fictitious higher units. SNC did not have a well-established plan thus resulting in Candidate Moore taking charge and leading the fire team. SNC overcame these initial deficiencies and failures, asserted himself, and took charge of SNC’s team by addressing the problems. SNC quickly formed a plan and executed it well by providing clear instructions…

    Candidate Oblea Delivered his five paragraph order ensuring to cover all paragraphs, however his understanding of the order was poor. The coordinating instructions seemed as though they were ignored during the execution phase. Fire team members violated the boundaries set in the coordinating instructions.

SNC did not effectively utilize his fire team to their potential, he would state what needed to be done and instead of delegating he would actually execute the order himself.

    Candidate Miller struggled to deliver a five paragraph order that was in accordance with the OSMEAC format. Although SNC was able to brief some of the information he received from the instructor, he only mentioned "mission" and "signal" before briefing the sub-paragraphs. Additionally, SNC delivered the order with choppy, mumbled phrases and utilized excessive filler words. Candidate Miller displayed minimal confidence, and although he briefed a scheme of maneuver prior to execution, it was clear that he was making it up as he briefed. The tasks he gave to his fire team also lacked clarity and gave the impression they had not been thought through. During the execution, SNC used phrases that displayed lack of assertiveness such as "we should…

    Candidate Summerour provided a five paragraph order that contained most of the needed information to carry out the mission, but not much more and not necessarily in the proper order. SNC’s brief was very choppy and SNC seemed overwhelmed with the amount of information he needed to organize and disseminate. His scheme of maneuver was hasty and was briefed after the tasks. The tasks assigned did not have a purpose. SNC’s execution went well until the one point of friction, the simulated casualty, occurred. SNC did not give orders to neutralize the enemy for a few moments. During this time his sense of security was lacking. He left the casualty where he fell and took the rest of the fireteam to assault the enemy, having no assistance or cover…

    Facts. On the morning of August 31, 1986, Theresa Estrada left her home near Cerritos, California, to go shopping at a nearby grocery store. She left her husband at home reading the newspaper, and her three children were still in bed. Returning from the store, Estrada saw, heard, and felt a big explosion. Within minutes, she maneuvered her way through burning homes, cars, and debris to find her home engulfed in flames. Her husband and children died in the house. Although she did not know it at the time, an Aeromexico passenger airplane had crashed into her home after colliding with a privately owned plane. Estrada suffered severe emotional distress from the incident. She sued for the wrongful death of her family. Aeromexico was found not responsible for the accident. The jury found the private pilot 50 percent liable, and the United States 50 percent liable because air traffic controllers had failed to detect the private plane's intrusion into commercial airspace and give a traffic advisory to the Aeromexico flight. The jury awarded Estrada $5.5 million for the death of her family and $1 million for negligent infliction of emotional distress. The U.S. government appealed the $500,000 judgment against it for negligent infliction of emotional distress.…
