1. SITUATION
a. Enemy Forces: Elements of the 38th Infantry Regiment occupy positions just forward of the line of contact (Squad & Platoon - size). In our zone, one squad is suspected on HILL 314 (OBJ 1), and a platoon in prepared positions occupies HILL 403 (OBJ 2). As we apply pressure the enemy squad will probably withdraw to OBJ 2, or farther to the north. The platoon on OBJ 2 will stand and fight. Although ground reinforcement is unlikely, the enemy will have substantial indirect fire support.
