Military leaders use a precise email format called SMEAC (Situation, Mission, Execution, Administration/Logistics, Command/Signal) to ensure clarity and efficient communication.

Concise and structured emails following the SMEAC format allow military personnel to communicate effectively while respecting everyone's limited time.
