Units that are not directly engaged in combat often find it necessary to travel in order to position themselves for combat operations. Drill books. As a CS asset, MP can assist a scout platoon by locating the enemy reconnaissance element, freeing the scouts or TCF to perform the killing function of counterreconnaissance on larger mechanized enemy reconnaissance elements. DODDOA-009830 The ability of the platoon to engage dismounted enemy with grazing fires, and flank shots against enemy vehicles. The employment of MP is based on METT-TC, available resources, and the commander's priorities. A mounted OP/LP offers the advantages of rapid movement and protection because the enemy can easily detect them; however, it is potentially much less effective than adismounted OP/LP.

The team camouflages the OP/LP and their vehicle while the gunner clears a field of fire and prepares a range card. The basic considerations in planning any road march are the METT-TC factors (especially the enemy situation and the mission); the march order; and the type, number, and characteristics of vehicles available for the movement. Choose one central ambush site around which you can control and organize the Figure 7-2. army.mi l/portal/ati a/adlsc/vi ew/public/297074-1/fin/3-19.4/chav3 .htm 12/27/2004 6-24. The squad leader establishes communication with higher HQ and tells the team when and how to report. This policy applies from the moment detainees become the responsibility of US forces and continues until the time they are released or repatriated.

Minor medical treatment may come from the MP company's combat medical section. In urban areas, use warehouse-type buildings for supply operations.

DODDOA-009836 Appendix G describes the MK19 qualification and familiarization tables and provides a The longer the flight time and the larger the engagement angle, the greater the drift. MP support retrograde crossings the same as they do deliberate crossings. WARNING This includes the division's main command post (CP) where MP operate outside the CP perimeter conducting screening missions designed to detect, disrupt, and delay enemy forces from disrupting the division's primary CP. In any military operation involving US forces, accountability and the safe and humane treatment of detainees are essential. http://atiam.train.annymil/portal/atia/adlsc/view/public/297074-1/fmJ3-1 12/27/2004 is tO- DODDOA-009808 Once higher HQ has established local FP policies, leaders set This prevents them from plotting ways to counter A hasty attack.

The fragmentation or concussion grenade can be thought of as the preparatory fire used before the assault. UNIT: An enemy soldier's unit may be hard to determine. _ Each rendezvous point becomes the ORP for the next phase. The OP/LP must have the following characteristics: Captives may keep the following items found in a search: Ensure that captives do not remain at the division forward collecting point more than 12 hours before being escorted to the division central collecting point. A 10-minute short halt is taken every 2 hours thereafter. 6-16. . Submits requests for support based on the forecast developed during the briefing.

The platoon increases the intensity of fire as the enemy closes within range of additional weapons. If the platoon elements are going to operate in one location (as they would for an EPW holding area), the platoon leader sets up a static platoon HQ base. A small tent houses the platoon's HQ. Become an effective planner and anticipator of MP requirements. Route characteristics may make it necessary to halt at a particular point on the route rather than simultaneously at a fixed time. The hinge breach technique is performed much the same as the doorknob breach, except the gunner aims at the hinges. BIBLIOGRAPHY Long-range fire should disrupt enemy formations, channelize the enemy toward engagement areas, prevent or severely limit the enemy's ability to observe the location of friendly positions, and destroy the enemy as it attempts to breach tactical obstacles. MMS, formerly known as battlefield circulation control, consists of those measures necessary to enhance combat movement and the ability to conduct movement of friendly resources in all environments. communication distances and significant terrain features to identify potential wireless X X X X X X An antenna increases the transmission distance and is located based on OPSEC principles.

Conduct a reconnaissance before picking the exact location for the collecting point. Whenever possible, TLP are integrated and accomplished concurrently rather than sequentially. If the vehicles cannot leave the road, they are parked at an angle so alternate vehicles face opposite sides of the road. Avoid head-on encounters with an enemy's forces. Due to limited resources, use obstacles to channel, 1. Movement Considerations In heavy divisions, where highly mobile forces are designed to move quickly over open ground, the overall need for MMS is significant.
