"Careful guys, we're falling out of formation here". "Hey Jake, can I get you to help us out on this formation?". Sometimes people could have lost track, or unintentionally didn't recognize they were doing something wrong.

"Hey Jake, listen to me, I need you to help us out with the Wedge. Is there a reason why you are having difficulty following what I'm asking for, or not staying in formation?"		* What do we do when someone doesn't want to listen? We've asked nicely, we've told them, now we're going to give them the direct question. Be direct, but don't throw attitude. Be calm and direct. "Hey Jake, listen to me, I need you to help us out with the Wedge. Is there a reason why you are having difficulty following what I'm asking for, or not staying in formation?"

	* If they continued, I would call to my Platoon leadership to ask for a brief halt, and go speak with them and tell them I want a replacement because Jake isn't following commands and not doing as asked. We don't want those types of players here, and we'll have them removed.		* If they continued, I would call to my Platoon leadership to ask for a brief halt, and go speak with them and tell them I want a replacement because Jake isn't following commands and not doing as asked.
