    When reflecting on my time at Brownstein Hyatt Farber Schreck (BHFS) that is rapidly approaching its closure, one word comes to my mind and that is “refined”. My time at BHFS has refined skills in the following: basic office protocol, off the cuff research, congressional research, legislative tracking/research, and daily professional interactions. When asked if my desired outcome was reached I would answer with resounding “yes”, I am very grateful that I have had the opportunity to intern and learn at BHFS. Outcome/Goals Before departing to DC, I had two goals, 1) pin point a clear direction to pursue a career in lobbying/government relations 2) experience everything DC has to offer.…

    Candidate Hills provided a thorough five paragraph order. Candidate Hills briefed with confidence, placing great emphasis on mission accomplishment, and briefing tasking statements with good detail and purpose, ensuring each member understood their purpose. However, Candidate Hills somehow became disoriented during the execution of movement to contact; he began walking in a 45 degree angle from his direction of attack and had to be guided back onto the correct azimuth by his fire team on at least two occasions before taking a casualty in the scenario. Candidate Hills' emphasis on mission accomplishment, and detailed tasking statements, played out well as he became the casualty requiring his fire team to quickly adapt to the newly developed…

    Candidate Garnica delivered a five paragraph order that lacked information and used filler words while briefing. She maintained good eye contact with the members of her team and was confident in her delivery. SNC failed to brief any of the "admin and logistics" and "command and signal" paragraphs. Although Candidate Garnica briefed a scheme of maneuver during the brief, it was obvious that she had not created an actual plan before beginning the execution. There was no clear transition between the end of the brief and the start of the execution.…

    Candidate Sinclair, hereby referred to as SNC, confidently briefed a clear and logical order, however completely omitted the Admin and Logistics and Command and Signal paragraphs. At no time during the brief did SNC address the paragraph title or the information which should have been contained in those paragraphs. SNC issued a poor, partially-developed plan. SNC employed two subordinates as security and mandated these candidates provide security reports every 40 seconds; these subordinates were within 10 meters of SNC. SNC sent SNC’s remaining subordinate to continually physically check on the other two subordinates providing security.…

    Candidate Bills delivered a very thorough and in depth five paragraph order. SNC was very diligent in ensuring that all information and additional information was passed to the fire team, at one point causing SNC to stumble over his thought process, and pause for a length of time to recoup his thoughts before moving on. This visibly flustered SNC. SNC lacked a sense of urgency by taking up a substantial amount of time to deliver the order. Upon completing the brief SNC took more time to square himself away failing to give any guidance to the fire team resulting in zero productivity.…

    Candidate Rudd stumbled through his entire brief and quickly lost composure while briefing in a quiet and nervous tone of voice. SNC did not brief all of the Orientation paragraph, made up or stole details from previous scenarios that could potentially drive the mission, and his Execution paragraph lacked relevant, actionable information and tasking statements. Once his fire team received contact, SNC froze and completely ignored the need for an ADDRAC, haphazardly trying to buddy rush in an unspecified direction. Upon receiving contact, SNC was unable to process the fact that one of his team members was a casualty, and he remained unable to make a decision while receiving light small arms fire. SNC bounced back and forth between closing with…

    Candidate Countryman posted security and had a team start making a terrain model for him while he was receiving his brief, showing good use of his team-members and good time management. His brief delivery was at a normal volume and conversational tone, but had only limited eye contact throughout the brief. He provided a thorough assessment and description of the enemy situation, and discussed higher and adjacent elements in the friendly situation. He did not brief the Administration or Logistics paragraphs, but just said “Same as the base order, we’re not changing anything.” He did not provide the location of the Platoon Commander or Platoon Sergeant and did not have a succession of command, only briefing it after being prompted by a team…
