Slide 1 of 33
Notes:
- In the late 80’s we saw a great variety of battle orders being used; from nothing at all to single-page “fight & win” philosophies; to book-like tomes with exacting specificity.
- After the STARK incident our leadership started placing greater emphasis on battle orders and NWP 60 specifically directed CO’s to draft battle orders using the general format provided in chapter 6.
- Since then we have observed the process here at SWOS and have seen battle orders mature into very accurate and usable instructions.
