Key Points to Writing

WRITE!!! The more you do it, the better you get.
Ask for HELP, the only person looking out for #1 is you.
The only person looking out for your troops is YOU!
Use a spell checker. F7 works real fast in MS Word.
Use various writing resources like Merriam-Webster Online to improve your vocabulary.

The following Example has been taken from a Word Doc. I have changed mission information to protect myself and the people I have received the information from. I will attempt to give a little insight to the entire process if I know it.
