tasks

Analysis of implied tasks and further development of branches and sequels to

plans. Plans published as an output to the targeting

process

Branches and sequels wargamed and published.

All annexes are synchronized. Effectiveness

of planning process is analyzed through design

Composite Risk Management1 2 3 4 5

Not Done

Risks identified but not reduced, no control

measures, process not conducted to standard.

Risk Management (only safety focused) process conducted to standard &

briefed.

Tactical & Safety risk considered and mitigated

as part of the planning process. CRM used

throughout all phases of mission. Risk considered

and updated during mission.

Risk is considered in the AAR and Lessons Learned are incorporated into future

planning.

PCC/PCI1 2 3 4 5

Not conductedNot conducted to standard

or not consistently conducted.

PCC/PCI's conducted to Army Standard by lowest

level leaders

Leaders at every level involved in PCC/PCIs , all

critical deficiencies corrected

Unit is a learning organization and

incorporates lessons learned into PCI/PCC Process

Rehearsals1 2 3 4 5

Not conducted

Incorrect or inadequate rehearsal technique executed; Only baseline tasks to conduct a rehearsal are executed; Subordinate units do not attain full synchronization or understanding of the COA from the rehearsal

Rehearsal technique selected is appropriate based on considerations; Reinforces the unit's task and purpose; scheme of maneuver, scheme of fires, scheme of support, IDs the EMLCOA. Participants are prepared and concise in their briefing. Decision points are identified and recognized.

Discusses higher intent, scheme of maneuver, fires, CSS contingencies, addresses all forms of contact. Enablers and key CS / CSS functions are briefed as part of Rehearsal. Multiple branches of COA are rehearsed and composite overlays are published by staff. OPSEC measures employed.

Rehearsals done at all levels, specific War Fighter Function Rehearsals (Fires, CSS etc.) also conducted. Consideration given to flank unit missions. Key locations and events identified that require CDR, XO, or S3 oversight. Subordinate units achieve complete understanding and synchronization from rehearsal.

ABCS/COP/Graphics1 2 3 4 5

Graphics not used or produced

Graphics not refined to unit operations or not distributed to all ABCS systems and to the lowest level.

Graphics for maneuver, fires, C2 disseminated to TTC level and all ABCS systems; all graphics are consistent across systems/units

Graphics support branches and sequels; include obstacle, SITEMP, and CSS(plus #3)

Unit is using automated graphical updates and consolidated common graphic from bottom up refinement. (plus #3&4)

ISR1 2 3 4 5

No R&S planned or conducted. No PIR's, IR's or SIR's. No understanding of tactical questioning

No specified R&S tasks, or not covering higher's TAIs. Sporadic synchronization or coordination. Lack of understanding of use of R&S plan/ISR plan.

Commander has assigned NAI's to answer PIRs, higher's NAIs are covered. R&S plan/ISR plan developed and meets minimal standards WRT effects, synchronization.

Uses NAIs for DST and direct fire planning, tracks NAIs, and refines SITEMP. Synchronized lower to higher

Fully synchronized R&S plan tied to PIR, NAI's/TAI - and fully synchronized higher to lower. Exceeds understanding of utilization of all available assets

Sustainment (CLI, Fuel, V, Maintenance, Medical)1 2 3 4 5

Sustainment functions not performed; Supported units cannot perform mission due to lack of big 3 (CLI/fuel/V); Units Black in 1 or more commodities

Sustainment not performed, Minimal Sustainment planning occurring at BN/BDE/CO level; Unit conducting reactive or just in time logistics; CL I-IX below 50% severe impact on maneuver mission; No LOG SYNC; FSC/SPT PL not tied into the BN movement/patrol plan

Some Sustainment planning occurring; CL I-IX at 50%; use of LOG tools to forecast commodity management being implemented; lack of LOG planning having an impact to BN's mission; Resupply to subordinate units occurring only at last minute; no LOG SYNCH with BDE/BN/COs

Sustainment planning implemented into BN maneuver plan; little or no impact to BN mission; able to sustain life support and conduct resupply missions; use of LOG planning tools for forecasting commodities CLI-CLIX usage/management; resupply occurring at the subordinate level; flow of LOG information from COs to higher FSC/ALOC via FM/SIPR/VoIP with some prompting from higher; LOG SYNCH occurring with BDE/BN/COs but without synchronization

Sustainment planning implemented into BN maneuver plan; no impact to BN mission; Conducts resupply missions that are nested into the BN daily movement matrix; Able to sustain the BN and conduct forecasting of all commodities CL-CLIX; Proactive LOG occurring, stockage OBJs met; LOG Planning tools in use; Resupply occurring at the subordinate level; flow of LOG information from COs to higher without prompting from higher occurring; daily LOG SYNCHs with BDE/BN/COs providing the necessary information to forecast logistics

Direct Fire Planning & Execution1 2 3 4 5

No apparent deliberate direct fire plan

Plans direct fires, but plan does not demonstrate the ability to fully focus, distribute, or shift overwhelming mass of direct fires due to shortcomings in the fundamental principles.

Unit meets the standard: Unit plan effectively accounts for the 8 fundamental principles of direct fire control according to standards listed below; in execution, focuses, distributes, and shifts the overwhelming mass of direct fire capability at critical locations and times.

Unit meets the standard, plus planners are strong in planning principles. Execution of the direct fire plan is exceptional at adjusting to battlefield conditions and capitalizes on speed, surprise, and shock.

Unit meets all requirements for Level 4, plus understands where they succeeded and failed/ how to improve for next engagement.

Security & Force Protection1 2 3 4 5

No Plan

Security drops below required level, unaware of compromise, information improperly labeled

Designates plan, maintains security; patrols conducted, sectors assigned. Information labeled and stored properly

Adjacent unit coordination, designates QRF, Info security actively verified, leaders check

QRF rehearsed and incorporated into plans, and meets/or exceeds callout standards, cameras incorporated and monitored, active external patrols.

BATTLE DRILLS

Mounted IED Identification

Black, Black, Black, 0-5-25's, Truck with eyes on will check if there's a threat. If there is a threat, Truck with eyes on will stay in place and prepare a 9 LINE UXO/IED report. CC will notify BN of the IED and that a report will be sent up to BN/BS soon. If we are on a narrow road Dismounts will get out, conduct 0-5-25's and get 360 security around the IED. Dismounts in the rear truck will set up a TCP at teh rear of the Convoy and Lead Truck will set up a TCP on the Far side. Once the 9 line has been sent up we will wait for EOD to arrive.

Dismounted IED Identification

Member will signal with hand arm signal and reframe from using any radio comms. Carefully scanning the area we will retrace our steps back and get 360 security around the site and push out at least 300 m insuring the inside of our perimeter is cleared and no one gets inside. 9 Line IED report will be called up to BN/BS and we will wait for QRF and EOD to arrive.

Mounted IED Strike

Black, Black, Black, 5-25's, ACE report, assess the situation, vehicle in front or behind Recovers. If the vehicle is on fire, trucks will pull up to provide security while dismounts try to supress the fire. If it is not possible to move the vehicle PAX will be moved to the CASEVAC truck while gunners provide security. If possible the Convoy will push out of the kill zone, sending up a 9 LINE MEDEVAC and setting up an LZ if required.

Dismounted IED Strike

Seek cover, get down, TL's get ACE reports and set up 360 degree security, If the site is safe pull wounded out of the kill zone and have Medic begin First Aid. 9 Line will be called up. If no injuries are sustained, once 360 security is set we will notify BN/BS and get AWT on the scene. if a wire is found, we will begin Movement to Contact Battle Drill

Mounted Complex Ambush

Push Down Vehicle out of the Kill Zone if possible, Return Fire if PID, if vehicle cant be pushed vehicle behind will provide cover on contact side while vehicle in front moves back to recover. If the Vehicle can not be moved gunners will lay down suppressive fire while casualties are moved to the CASEVAC truck. CC will notify BS/BN of the situation and send for QRF to either tow the vehicle, or engage the enemy. 9 LINE MEDEVAC will be called up by the CASEVAC truck

Dismounted Complex Ambush

Seek cover, get down, TL's get ACE reports and set up 360 degree security, If the site is safe pull wounded out of the kill zone and have Medic begin First Aid if situation allows. BN will be notified to get AWT on the scene as we get in a line and begin suppressive fire on the insurgents, targeting RPG's and PKM's first. Once control has been established team not in contact will maneuver to flank, if AWT is not on its way, and eliminate the threat.

Mounted SniperGunners Down to Eye Level, Continue Moving

Dismounted Sniper

Seek Cover, Get Down. 3 D's PID and begin suppressive fire to break contact and mount vehicles. If there is no cover and vehicles are far, engage with suppressive fire and go into react to contact battle drill. If possible get AWT on the scene.

Mounted Small Arms Fire

Continue through Kill Zone call up report to BS & BN with location. If mission allows, Gunners will get PID and return fire, dismount and get 360 security around the area, notify BS & BN and conduct a BDA or wait for BS to conduct the BDA.

Dismounted Small Arms Fire

Seek cover, get down, team in contact will get on line and begin suppressive fire. Team not in contact will maneuver to flank and continue through with react to contact battle drill.

Mechanical FailureTwo Gun Trucks will pull up for security and the Wrecker crew will determine the problem

LZ SetupLead Vehicle will find the next largest area for a bird to land, convoy will setup in a box formation, lead truck going straight to the far side, CASEVAC or trucks with injured personnel, will setup with side of injured personnel facing in towards the LZ

Actions on Halt Vehicles will stay off on right hand side of the road. 5/25's, dismount if we will be stopped for awhile 0/5/25/200

BATTLE DRILLS (cont)React to Contact

Elements in contact return fire and suppress. 2 options: Break Contact or Conduct Attack

Attack

Elements not in contact maneuver to flank, close in and destroy the enemy, sends Blue 1 to higher

Break Contact

Convoy continues out of the Kill Zone and sends Blue 1 to higher

Area of Suspected CWIED

Dismounts will lead Convoy in inverse wedge to flush out a trigger man and search for suspected CWIED

Dismounted Rifleman

BATTLE DRILLS (cont)React to Complex Ambush

IED Strikes lead vehicle and it is immobile, Personnel inside lead vehicle go through priorities of medical support and report status, if able.

If vehicle is disabled but can still roll, Gun trucks will gain fire superiority and then perform hasty recover. Report Blue 1, 9 Line MEDEVAC, Red 2 and Yellow 5 as needed.

If vehicle is disabled and cannot roll remaining Gun Trucks will suppress the enemy, maneuver to flank and destroy the enemy to clear the area for MEDEVAC and recovery. Report Blue 1, 9 Line MEDEVAC, Red 2 and Yellow 5 as needed.

HLZ

1. Lead vehicle enters HLZ from the road side (6 o’clock) and travels all the way through to the far side (12 o’clock), clearing out the middle.

2. If only four vehicles, trucks 2 and 3 will go to the 9 and 3 position clearing the sides and the last vehicle will take the 6 o’clock.

3. If more than four vehicles, they will fill in between 11 - 7 o’clock and 1 – 5 o’clock.

4. Vehicles will be set up so casualties and in the CASEVAC vehicle face inward toward the center of the HLZ

Minimum diameter required for an HLZ by Helicopter type:• UH-60 – 50 Meters• CH-47 – 80 Meters

*ground must be free of debris and loose sand. If you can drive a 5 ton over the HLZ, the ground is solid enough for a UH-60 to land

3 ABCT COMMO CARD

Equalizers are O/O to provide direct and continuous support to ourselves, 588 BEB and 3 ABCT Headquarters while operating in a Decisive Action Environment. We know the Army values and live by them. When support is required we act with speed; the enemy will not have the upper hand; we will surprise the enemy and react with violence. We alone enable the Battalion and Brigade to Shoot, Move and Communicate. There is no vehicle that we cannot fix and no distance we cannot move. No Soldier in 588 BEB will go hungry, go without fuel in their trucks, ammunition in their weapons, or be left broken down on the side of the road in a foreign country. We are Soldiers, tasked to slay the enemies of Freedom. But we are more than that, we are Mechanics, Cooks, Transporters, Fuelers, and Ammo Handlers…

We are the Equalizers on the Battlefield.
