STEP 3: Apply a cons t r i c t ing band over the pad , kno t i t , and inse r t a device to t ighten the tourniquet . Ropes, pieces of wire or other thin mater ia ls should not be used because they could cut into the t issues of the l imb.

STEP 4: Tighten the tourniquet just enough to control the bleeding. I f i t i s unnecessar i ly t ight , i t wi l l cause excessive damage to the l imb.

STEP 5: Mark the casual ty’s forehead with “T” and the t ime and date the tourniquet was appl ied for each tourniquet appl ied.

GOLF AREA SHELLED / MORTARED / BOMBED:This may be transmitted either as:

1. Polar Plot. This includes the bearing / azimuth and distance/range of impact from the observer. (This information should be encoded to prevent the observer from being bracketed as a result of the enemy getting a back azimuth and range to the observer. This is NOT the preferred technique to locate the impact of the round).

2. Grid Reference. This information should not be encoded because the enemy already knows where he is shooting and this information will only assist the enemy in breaking the encryption. (This IS the pre-ferred tech-nique for transmitting this information.)

HOTEL NATURE OF FIRE:The purpose for which the f ire is being used is reported: regis trat ion, bombardment , harassment , or soon (may be omit ted for aircraf t ) .

JULIET CALIBER / SIZE OF ORDNANCE BEING FIRED:The s ize of the weapon being f ired or the s ize of the bomb being dropped is reported ( i f a determinat ioncan be made) .

1. OT DISTANCEa. If an OT distance is greater that 1,000 meters, express the distance to the nearest thousand meters; if

an OT distance is less than 1,000 meters, express the distance to the nearest hundred metersb. Ex:OT distance is 1,500 meters, which is expressed as 2,000 meters

2. OT FACTORa. The OT factor is the expressed distance from the forward observer to the target in meters divided by

1,000. b. Ex:OT factor = Expressed OT distance / 1000

3. LATERAL CORRECTION & DEVIATION SPOTTINGa. The left (L) or right (R) deviation correction is determined by multiplying, in mils, the deviation

between impact and the target (the deviation spotting) by the OT factor. Deviation corrections are expressed to the nearest 10 meters

b. Remember to adjust the opposite the deviation spot: if the round is right (deviation spot right) move the round impact left, and vice versa.

c. Ex:Left or right deviation correction in meters = Deviation spotting (to nearest 5 mils) x OT factor

◊ NOTE: deviation correction less than 30 meters is considered minor and is ignored during the mission

a. Example 1:◊ The OT distance is 1,500 meters, which is expressed as 2,000 meters, so the OT factor = 2 (OT

distance of 2000 divided by 1000); deviation spotting is L45 mils◊ The deviation spotting = 45 (mils) x 2 (OT factor) = 90 meters; lateral correction is R90

b. Example 2:◊ The OT distance is 650 meters, which is expressed as 600 meters, so the OT Factor = 0.6 (OT dis-

tance of 600 divided by 1000); deviation spotting is R60 mils.◊ The deviation spotting = 60 (mils) x .6 (OT factor) = 36 meters, which expresses to 40 meters;

a. AT MY COMMAND: Command used when observer desires to control exact delivery time of fires

b. CHECK FIRING: Command from anyone in the fire support net to halt firing immediately

c. DANGER CLOSE: Term included with the method of engagement segment of a call for fire which indicates friendly troops are within close proximity of the target; exact distance is deter-mined by the munition fired; creeping method of adjustment will be used exclusively during dan-ger close missions

d. DIRECTION: Used by spotter / observer to indicate the direction from the observer to the target - also known as the observer target line (OTL); when the observer anticipates he will be required to adjust fire, he will send a direction to the FDC

e. MARK: Spotting or illumination round on the deck; used to indicate targets to aircraft, ground troops, or fire support

f. REPEAT: During adjustment, request by the observer to fire again using the same firing data; during fire for effect, a request to fire the same number of rounds using the same method of fire

g. SHOT: Rounds fired. Announced by the FDC to alert the observer

h. SPLASH: Rounds will impact in 5 seconds. Announced by FDC

i. SURVEILLANCE: Battle damage assessment (BDA)

j. TIME ON TARGET: Time the observer desires round(s) to impact the target

W = R x mils (Width of lateral shift = Range (km) x mils)

Example: The observer knows that the distance from his location to a known point (church)

is 2,500 meters. With binoculars, the observer measures an angular deviation of 62 mils from

the church to the target. The observer calculates the lateral shift as follows:

W = 2500/1000 x 62 = 155 meters = approximately 160 meters (lateral shift expressed to

nearest 10 meters.)

The observer transmits: “LEFT 160” to FDC

WARNING

Ordnance del ivery inside 0.1% PI wil l be considered “Danger Close”. The supportedcommander must accept responsibi l i ty for the r isk to f r iendly forces when targets areinside 0.1% PI dis tance. The supported commander wil l pass his ini t ia ls to terminalcontrol lers to pass to a t tacking aircraf t , indicat ing acceptance of the r isk inherent inordnance del ivery inside the 0.1% PI dis tance.

The term “Danger Close” is used when there are f r iendly t roops or posi t ions within aprescr ibed dis tance of the target . This is s imply a warning and not a res t r ic t ion to themaneuver commander and the f i re direct ion center to take proper precaut ions. Risk-est imate dis tances are def ined as the dis tance in meters f rom the intended center ofimpact a t which a specif ic degree of r isk and vulnerabi l i ty wil l not be exceeded. Therisk is expressed as the Probabil i ty of Incapaci tat ion (PI) , which is the probabi l i ty thata Marine wil l suffer an incapaci ta t ing injury. Percent PI value is less than or equal to1 chance in 1 ,000 (0.1%).

Users must ful ly understand the assumptions used to develop these r isk-est imate dis-tances . Al l values were calculated using the General Ful lspray Personnel Program fromthe Joint Technical Coordinat ing Group for Munit ions Effect iveness a t Egl in AFB.Commanders should famil iar ize themselves with the CLASSIFIED assumptions (seeMCRP 3-16.6A, page 107) . Combining the CLASSIFIED assumptions with the r isk-est imate numbers makes both sets of numbers CLASSIFIED. The fol lowing r isk-est i -mate table depicts a “worst-probable” case scenario.

IP/BP: Initial point (IP) is used for fixed-wing aircraft. It is the 5 - 15 nautical milerun into the target. A battle position (BP) is used for rotary-wing aircraft. It is3,000 - 5,000 meters from the target. It is a large area (1000 x 1000 m or >) fromwhich a rotary wing aircraft engages the target.

HEADING: The heading is given in degrees magnetic from the IP (or center of theBP) to the target. The offset (left or right) indicates the side of the IP to target linethat aircrews can maneuver in while in the target area. Saying degrees magneticafter the number is not necessary.

DISTANCE: The distance from the IP/center of the BP to the target. Nautical milesfor fixed-wing; meters for rotary-wing. Saying nautical miles/meters after thenumber is not necessary.

TARGET ELEVATION: The target elevation is given in feet above mean sea level.

TARGET DESCRIPTION: The target description is brief and concise, containingthe number, type of target, degree of protection, activity & configuration. Example:4 APCs on road, stationary...Bunker complex...Tank column in open, movingnorth to south.

TARGET LOCATION: Six digit UTM grid or as latitude/longitude.

TYPE MARK: The type of mark used: e.g., WP, RP, laser (include 4 digit code),illumination on the deck, HE, mirror flash. If no mark is available, use availablereferences (roads, steams, open areas, other prominent terrain).

LOCATION OF FRIENDLY: Cardinal direction (N, S, E, W) and distance (inmeters) from the target to the nearest friendly position.

EGRESS: Instructions the aircraft will follow to exit the target area after engagingthe target. It includes direction to turn out of the target area and a control point towhich the aircraft will fly. Use the word “Egress” before the instruction.

REMARKS: If applicable, additional threats, hazards, weather, final attack heading, artillery guntarget lines, etc. can be given here.

TIME ON TARGET: Time on target (TOT) is the synchronized, universal clock time when ord-nance will hit the target. There is no time “HACK” for TOT. TOT is the preferred towing method.GPS can provide a common time reference; if not available, the terminal controller can still exe-cute a TOT mission by synchronizing time using a watch as a reference. It is passed to the air-craft as a number of minutes past the hour (e.g., 1624 would be 24 and communicated: Time ontarget 24).

TIME TO TARGET: Time to target (TTT) is the number of minutes & seconds after the “HACK”that ordnance will hit the target (e.g., 4 minute would be passed as 4 plus 00). Immediately afterthe minutes & seconds are passed, “HACK” is said. The pilot then punches a stopwatch in the air-craft and prepares to put bombs on the target at the requested time. Example: Stand by for timeto target...time to target 4 plus 00...HACK. (Note: “HACK” indicates all participants start thecountdown).

AMPLIFYING REMARKS: Anything else that is pertinent to the mission must also be passed tothe pilot. If a further explanation of the target area will assist the pilot in locating the target, thatinformation is passed after the TOT/TTT has been passed. There is no format for this informa-tion. Communicate with the pilot using plain language.

A S R E Q U I R E D A C - 1 3 0 G U N S H I P I N F O R M A T I O N

Transmission of the fire mission is clearance to fire (unless DANGER CLOSE). For AC-130Gunship Danger Close Risk-Estimate Distances, see the RISK-ESTIMATE DISTANCES section,page 2, Table: AIRCRAFT DELIVERED ORDNANCE RISK ESTIMATE DISTANCES, lines 18& 19. For closer fire, the observer must accept responsibility for increased risk. Transmit“Cleared Danger Close” (with commander’s initials) in the REMARKS line. This clearance maybe preplanned.

C L E A R A N C E

For positive control of a gunship, transmit “At My Command” in the REMARKS line. The AC-130 Gunship will reply: “Ready To Fire” when ready.

A T M Y C O M M A N D

A D J U S T I N G A C - 1 3 0 G U N S H I P F I R EIf there is a significant miss distance or the wrong target is engaged, adjust the round impact bygiving the range (meters) and the cardinal direction (north, south, east, west) from the impact tothe target.

Marking / confirming targets can also be accomplished using covert illumination (BURN) or witha laser pointer (SPARKLE).

To move the BURN or SPARKLE, transmit “MOVE BURN / SPARKLE 300 METERS WEST”or “ROLL BURN / SPARKLE 100 METERS EAST”.

Once BURN or SPARKLE is over the target, transmit “FREEZE BURN / SPARKLE” (if theword STOP is transmitted, the AC-130 Gunship will cease firing.

D O N ’ T s

1 Do NOT ask the AC-130 Gunship to ident i fy colors .

2 Do NOT reference clock posi t ions.

3 Do NOT pass run-in headings / no-f i re headings (give no-f i re areas & fr iendlytroop posi t ions only) .

4 Do NOT correct lef t / r ight or short / long.

M A R K I N G F R I E N D L Y P O S I T I O NDesignate the FLOT with IR chemlights: LEFT - CENTER - RIGHT

5 Do NOT mark al l of your Marine with GLINT tape.

6 Do NOT have mult iple IR pointers (PEQ-2A) i l luminated; ENSURE only a s ingleIR pointer is being used to mark the target .

7 Do NOT shine IR pointers in the direct ion of the AC-130 Gun Ship; i t wi l l assumeit is being targeted.
