.The S3, working with the brigade engineer and CAE,develops the control measures, crossing graphics, andcrossing timeline for each COA (see Figure 6-6).COA AnalysisThe staff at both division and brigade war-game eachCOA against likely threat reactions (see Figure 6-7).They then attempt to counter each threat response.The engineer war-games against other variables out-side his control, such as terrain difficulties and cross-ing-equipment losses.He considers what will happen ifit takes longer to open a crossing site, if damage slows6-4 PlanningFM 90-13/FMFM 7-26Part One.General Procedurescompanies up early to provide equipment andinstructors.DETAILED PLANThe battle staff converts the selected COA into aplan with sufficient detail for synchronized execution(see Figure 6-9).The staff engineer does extensiveanalysis to develop a unit-by-unit crossing plan andmovement schedule.From this analysis, he develops thecrossing -capability chart and the crossing overlay (seeFigure 6-10).These are his primary execution tools.Hedevelops the crossing synchronization matrix as amissions, provide brigade flexibility, and allow forcrossing redundancy.FORCE MOVEMENT INITIATIONDivision.The division staff provides movement ordersand route priorities to establish early linkup of supportforces with the brigades.They plan and executedeceptive movement of forces to hinder threat iden-tification of the crossing areas.Brigade.The brigade staff begins moving forces intoassembly areas, starts training and rehearsals, andmoves necessary corps combat engineer and bridgePlanning 6-5FM 90-13/FMFM 7-26 Part One.General Proceduresprimary execution tool for the S3.He also helps thesufficient detail for battalion-level planning.Hetraffic-control cell work out the traffic-circulation plan.converts this planning into a detailed engineer task listWhile detailed planning is underway, the CAE in- and develops an engineer execution matrix toitiates far- and near-shore reconnaissance to developsynchronize it (see Appendix A).6-6 Planning [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
