2. Before receiving your OPORD tell your team
leaders to get security. AT(9-3b/w of12) BT (9-
3b/w of 6) “Get cover while you’re in these
positions.”
Tell your RTO to leave after the Execution
Para, so they can begin setting up the TMK.
Grab your RTO and follow the TAC.
Take out your pen and template and prepare
to copy.
4. After your TAC finishes reading you the
OPORD, ask for SECURITY!
Pull in your TLs and issue WARNO
If security is granted, begin your team
rehearsals while you put your OPORD
together.
Remember, 1/3-2/3. You only have 15 minutes
to spit out your OPORD from H-Time.
5. Once you have your OPORD together pull
both teams in, (Bravo on my left, Alpha on
my right).
Brief the OPORD and go over your plan
(TMK) thoroughly.
Ask for any questions and answer them
confidently.
BACKBRIEF!!!
6. You have 30 Minutes to go over your mission.
Go over actions on repeatedly until the whole
squad understands your “CONCEPT”.
After that, do a silent walk through from AA-
MVT-ORP-OBJ, insure everyone understands
what is expected of them.
Brief and go through different contingencies:
sniper, indirect fire, LDA, COB/MOB, IED, ETC.
Your contingency plans should be mission
dependent.
7. Give your TLs a chance to do some work by
allowing them to conduct a PCC.
After the TLs conduct their PCC you should
conduct your own PCC and back brief as you
conduct it. (check to ensure the compass
works, actually get hands on equipment,
don’t take someone's word for it, leave the
area exactly as it was found)
8. (This is TAC dependent)-Don’t ask to LD, you
have already been briefed what time you
should be crossing the LD so say this “T16
this is C31, Crossing LD, Time now H+45”
Once MVT has been initiated there is NO
MORE talking. Hand and arm signals only.
Set up ERP or Check Points METT-TC
dependent.
9. Ensure your squad maintains proper spacing.
They should be at least 10M or more between
each other, METT-TC dependent.
Enter the ORP as you briefed: by force or by
recon.
Set up security just as you had in your AA
Call in your Recon team: You, ATL, RTO, 3 RM
from Alpha
10. Leave a 5 Point with your BTL, = 1)Where you
going, 2)Who are you taking with you, 3)NLT
time you should be back, 4)what to do if I don’t
come back, 5)actions to take if you or myself
come under fire; BTL should count you out.
Utilize the same entrance and exit point in your
ORP.
Once you either have eyes on or you move out
to a position that your ATL wants to set up
support, drop your S/O team off, BRIEF A
5POINT!
12. When you have PID on the enemy, INFORM
HIGHER.
Brief your BTL what you saw.
Tell your ATL to pick up and move to the S/O
position.
Instruct your ATL to initiate fire once they get
online at that position. This way your MVT is
masked by their fire.
Conduct your BOLD flanking movement to get
on line. “METT-TC dependent” You will
determine which way to attack in your RECON.
15. LOA
LOA
OBJ
BANG, BANG, BANG, TARGETS of OPPORTUNITY
Lift Fire
16. After your BT LOA’s have them pull immediate
security. This can be done by rotating your most
far rifle men to cover your flanks, or you can pull
360 security.
Immediately receive your ACE reports: Ammo,
Casualties and Equipment. Don’t‘ allow them to
say “green-green-green”, instead say 1-UP-UP;
unless there are casualties or your equipment is
lost or broken.
Then send up that report to higher.
17. Call in your special teams, if there are no injured
then there is no reason to call in you’re A&L.
EPW comes in to search the bodies, while they
are being searched your RTO will record
everything they yell out.
Take a quick look around the objective, if there
are notebooks or maps look at them to see
what's inside them.
Ensure your TLs have their teams spaced out
efficiently and ensure that they are at least 35m
away from the OBJ.
Give your SALUTE report to higher.
18. After you send your reports….if you were
given a follow on mission do that, if not call
higher and seek further guidance.
If higher instructs you to CM…
Call in your DEMO team to destroy the
enemy equipment. Fire in the hole-1”AT
off”,2”BT off”,3”SL,RTO, 2RMforDEMOTeam
off”
Mission Complete.
