    Candidate Holth Case

    Candidate Holthe's five paragraph order was clear and concise. It was easy to understand and flowed well. However, he did brief parts as more of a check in the box without applying them to the execution. For example, he briefed hand and arm signals when they were clearly communicating utilizing voice. Initially he identified security but he then told them it would not be necessary so he did not establish it. SNC briefed a concise scheme of maneuver and his tasks were clear in order to accomplish the mission. SNC did fail to make the necessary adjustments to his plan in a timely manner. When it was clearly evident that his plan was not working he did not make an adjustment until eight minutes into the execution phase. SNC did not move…

    Candidate Taber Case Study

    Candidate Taber began by tasking each fire team as they arrived to the assembly area. SNC plotted both locations on the map with relative accuracy. SNC utilized the red numbers on the protractor at first and gave improper azimuth. After the evaluator told him he was incorrect he then gave a proper azimuth, but the distance was incorrect.

    Analysis Of Operation Husky

    At the operational level, the doctrinal attributes of mission command and proper integration of other joint functions were not followed during the planning, organizing and execution of Operation HUSKY. Integration by definition is “The arrangement of military forces and their actions to create a force that operates by engaging as a whole.” Three attributes essential to effective mission command not maximized during the operation include commander’s intent, mutual trust, and a command climate of understanding. Not fully integrating the joint functions of fires and intelligence also directly affected the overall effectiveness of the operation.…

    The Importance Of Snc's Lack Of Communication

    Candidate Burton displayed a basic understanding of the five paragraph order, however he did not brief a scheme of maneuver. SNC did brief a clear and detailed tasking statement to each team member. SNC almost forgot to brief security, but finally remembered it after he briefed Command & Signal. SNC displayed a lack of command presence and communication by giving commands quietly and without a sense of urgency. SNC placed himself at the very front of his fireteam during execution. This limited SNC’s ability to control his team’s movement causing poor dispersion and lack of control. Because his incoherent commands and lack of awareness of the tactical situation, SNC’s tasking for consolidation failed to produce an appropriate 360 degree security…
