EXAMPLE
IMPLIED TASKS FOR MISSION ANALYSIS- Conduct
force movement/convoy operations.
- Conduct
movement through 21st Infantry Division area of operations (AO).
- Plan
for casualty evacuation (CASEVAC)/ground and air.
- Isolate/evacuate
local population.
- Clear
flight landing strip (FLS)/repair FLS. (This task would more appropriately
be specified. The implied tasks will come from the "what do we need to do to
clear the FLS" question that often does not get asked.)
- Linkup/extract
long-range surveillance detachments (LRSD).
- Clear/secure
ground lines of communication (LOC).
- Establish
command and control (C2) forward. Determine its composition, the purpose, and
who reports to it on what nets; if more than one node needed; where likely
friction points are between two or more subordinate units that are going to
need focused attention from higher, and, therefore, where C2 should be positioned.
- Conduct
tactical road movement of forces/assets into AO.
- Conduct
civil military operations (CMO) in Haynes settlement. (An example of too general
a mission. More appropriate would be: What are the specific missions that must
be accomplished to make CMO really effective in Haynes settlement?)
- Maintain
main supply route (MSR) to secure civil affairs (CA) team access to Haynes.
- Withdraw
under pressure.
- Establish
a detachment left in contact (DLIC).
- Clear
and establish tactical assembly area (TAA).
