CRAWL
1. Initially give time to individual CPs for the following:
- *
necessary individual and collective training
- * preparation of equipment
- * preparation of planning and execution aids
- * determine shift manning
- * refine roles and responsibilities, e.g., security, feeding, routine briefings, etc.
- * preparation of equipment
2.The first gathering of all CPs should require all CPs plus scout, mortar, D Co (or TOW platoon) CP elements. (Note: Focus on these latter three elements is for communications.)
3. Emphasize the use of warning orders, FRAGOs, and AARs, through all stages of preparation.
4. Emphasize set up and tear down of CPs, to include communications.
5. Conduct initial inspection of execution aids (Bn XO/S3) and ensure parallelism among all CPs and completeness of tracking aids. Consider a notebook version of aids for assault/jump CP.
6. Include a distant radio station to verify radios and the ability to enter and leave a net.
- * Scouts should use AM and FM with KL 43 for both radios as well as available secure for FM radios.
7. Ask each CP to identify shifts and Battle Captains. (Battle Captains may be officers or noncommissioned officers.)
- *
identify manning for 24-hour continuous operations
- -may require shifting people from one CP to another, e.g., chemical and intel personnel to combat trains CP for depth in manning and for redundancy of operations and intelligence functions.
* think 24-hour operations
- -
identify who's in
charge
of
security for each CP, e.g., S1 for combat trains
- - discuss defensive sketching, CP reserves or quick reaction, rehearsals of the defense, etc., etc.
9. Keep confined to a 3-4 hour time period
- *
begin with an overview of requirements by XO/S3
- * conclude with AARs
- * S1,2 & 4 should attend the entire process (They'll always claim they're too busy!)
- * conclude with AARs
