INTRODUCTION Ground Surveillance plan (GSP) aspects which you will be concerned with are-- Planning general deployment locations of monitoring and relay sites for the remotely monitored battlefield sensor system (REMBASS). Planning REMBASS emplacement methods. Planning ground surveillance radar (GSR) sites. Planning for complete area of interest coverage. Planning operation intervals. Planning procedures for reporting collected information. Planning for assigned assets security. 1-1 IT 0515

5 Planning for fire support coordination. Drafting the ground surveillance operations overlay. Checking and revising ground surveillance overlay and plan. Submitting plans to approving authority. PRELIMINARY PLANNING The GSP is prepared prior to every major tactical operation and is designed to-- Support the commander's maneuver scheme. Foresees the operation's information requirements (IR). Plan necessary ground surveillance actions to meet these requirements. The GSP is initiated when the intelligence staff receives the commander's-- Priority intelligence requirements (PIR). IR. Specific guidance. The plan is prepared to provide area of interest coverage using multiple surveillance assets. Each surveillance asset is given a specific mission which fits into overall surveillance pattern. the A secondary or alternate mission may be assigned in the event the primary mission must be aborted. Coverage areas should overlap. Evaluation Process. Enemy. Evaluate all known and suspected knowledge of the enemy as it relates to-- Unit composition. Strength. Location. IT

6 Tactics--recent and during previous engagements. Probably courses of action. Terrain. Evaluate the terrain in your area of operations (AO) in terms of-- Target types. Expected targets. Obstacles--natural and/or man-made. Deadspace for radar or observation posts (OPs). Locations suitable for REMBASS use. Weather. Evaluate weather conditions within the AO relative to-- Normal climatic conditions. Forecasts. Liaison with division or brigade order of battle (OB) personnel will provide much of the above information. When personal contact is not possible, research division/brigade periodic intelligence reports (PERINTREP). The Air Force weather team attached to the division can also be of great assistance. Organic assets available to each battalion include-- Patrols. Night observation devices (NODs). OPs and listening posts (LPs). Limited infrared capability. Division assets available in addition to battalion assets include-- GSR. REMBASS. Corps assets available in absence of division include-- Aerial reconnaissance and surveillance (R&S). Armored cavalry regiment (ACR)(scouts). Long-range reconnaissance patrols (LRRP). Air Force support. 1-3 IT 0515

7 NOTE: Your primary concern will be Ground Surveillance Systems (GSS) use, however, should these prove ineffective, you must be knowledgeable of other available assets. ASSET DEPLOYMENT Operating Requirements. When missions are assigned to surveillance assets, specific operating instructions are included for requirements not addressed in the standing operating procedures (SOP), or which differ from the SOP, such as-- Electronic counter-countermeasures (ECCM). Operation schedules (commence, cease, or shift operations on targets). GSR operation interval to avoid detection, location, jamming, or destruction. General Deployment Locations. When planning for the location of GSR and REMBASS monitor/relay sites, sensor strings and fields, the following factors must be considered-- Side lobe masking terrain features for radar emplacement sites. Radar sites must be within target area range for type of target expected and radar used. Target area visual line-of-sight (VLOS) is required for GSR emplacements. Ensure primary and alternate sites can cover same target area. REMBASS monitoring sites must be within reception range of sensors or relay devices. Natural route choke points can be monitored by sensor strings or fields. ECCM for all sites. Security of radar and REMBASS implant and monitoring sites. REMBASS Emplacement. When planning for REMBASS emplacements, the following factors must be considered-- Radio line-of-sight (RLOS) from sensor to relay or monitoring equipment is required. Security elements. IT

8 Aviation support. Other transportation modes. Coordination required. The method of emplacement is determined by the-- Range from friendly position to emplacement area. Range from enemy position to emplacement area to include sensors emplaced behind enemy lines. Range from relays or sensors to monitoring site. Speed required for collection of information. Mission priorities. Availability and type of sensors. Available air and ground assets. Fire Support. Surveillance assets can provide immediate target data from which fire missions (artillery and air) can be effectively conducted. During GSP preparation, intelligence personnel conduct detailed coordination with fire support personnel integrating the results of surveillance operations into the fire support system. Measures to improve surveillance/fire support coordination include-- Surveying radar positions. Artillery fire preregistration. Preplanned methods of disseminating target information to fire support control elements. Predesignated final protective fires. Prepositioned defensive demolition. Prevention of friendly fires from being called on friendly locations. Security planning considers all measures necessary to protect deployed assets during all mission phases. When surveillance assets are used within friendly lines, the supported unit for security by integrating surveillance assets into unit operations. plans 1-5 IT 0515

9 When surveillance assets must proceed forward of friendly lines, the supported unit makes special plans for its security. NOTE: Standard security measures for most operations will normally be addressed in the unit SOP. Special measures, however, are always included in the GSP. A contingency should be included relative to team actions in the event the GSS personnel lose their security element. For example-- Report via radio/land line to the supported unit headquarters. Displace back to supported unit headquarters until the necessary force can be arranged. security Reporting Procedures. Reporting procedures will normally be explained in the division or subordinate SOP. If not, the GSP must include these reporting procedures-- WHAT is to be reported. WHEN it is to be reported. WHO will receive the information. Unless otherwise specified, the spot report will be used to report collected information. GROUND SURVEILLANCE PLAN PREPARATION Contents. The GSP contains, as a minimum, the following-- Assets to be used. Patrol routes. NODs. GSR/REMBASS. ACR. Mission of used assets. Patrols. OPs/LPs. IT

10 Alternate mission. General locations of GSR sites. General locations of REMBASS strings, fields, and monitoring sites. Operating requirements. Reporting procedures are normally incorporated within the unit's SOP, therefore, the GSP need only state: "See unit SOP: R&S Procedures." The changing tactical situation will dictate new requirements. Supporting overlay which depicts-- Exact GSS locations and coverage areas. Monitoring sites. OPs/LPs. Patrol routes. Format. The GSP format generally follows a five-paragraph field order. Paragraph 1--Situation. Identifies the particular units which support the command R&S effort in the areas of R&S and target acquisition. States the enemy situation as it pertains to surveillance operations. Identifies R&S agencies and equipment attached/detached to or from the command. Paragraph 2--Mission. The precise mission statement to satisfy command IR. Paragraph 3--Execution. Subparagraph 3a defines the concept of operations in terms of-- Systems to be relied on most heavily. Major restrictions to be imposed. Areas and targets of primary interest. 1-7 IT 0515

11 Each succeeding subparagraph assigns-- Specific tasking to each unit with a primary R&S mission. Special surveillance tasks to units with other primary missions. Paragraph 4--Service Support. States logistical aspects of the particular operation. Paragraph 5--Command and Signal. Includes current Signal Operation Instructions (SOI) information. Ground Surveillance Overlay. A graphic portrayal of the battlefield situation, which depicts to the commander and his staff, locations and missions, or R&S assets. You may be required to prepare this overlay in your capacity as a GSS platoon sergeant. There are three basic overlay preparation steps-- Orientation of the overlay material (also referred to as registering). (See Figure 1-1.) Plotting and symbolization of detail. (See Figure 1-2.) Addition of required marginal information. Only GSR/REMBASS symbols appear on the sample overlay, however, other symbols (see Figure 1-3) which would appear on a tactical overlay include-- Unit identification. Subunit identification. Type of equipment (if special equipment was used). Radar sectors. IT

12 Figure 1-1. Registering Overlay. GROUND SURVEILLANCE PLAN COMPLETION. Review and Revision. Upon completion of the GSP and overlay, intelligence personnel involved in preparation must thoroughly review both to-- their Ensure all planned actions can be accomplished and their accomplishment will collect the required information. Accomplish necessary revisions as required. Plan Approval. The final action in GSP preparation is to submit it for approval to the commander or his designated representative, usually the S2. However, coordination with the S3 is usually required. 1-9 IT 0515

18 LESSON 2 IMPLEMENT GROUND SURVEILLANCE PLAN CRITICAL TASK: OVERVIEW TASK DESCRIPTION: To implement a viable ground surveillance plan. LEARNING OBJECTIVE: ACTION: CONDITIONS: To ensure planned functions are accomplished. Given a mission briefing, operation order, battle area operation overlay, intelligence annex, and area of operation 1:50,000 scale map. STANDARD: Plan a ground surveillance mission to satisfy collection requirements. REFERENCES: FM 34-1, Intelligence and Electronic Warfare Operations, Jul 87. FM 34-10, Division Intelligence and Electronic Warfare Operations, Nov 86. INTRODUCTION During GSP implementation, you must ensure the following planned functions are accomplished-- Assign missions to GSS teams. Verify specific locations after deployment. Ensure complete surveillance area coverage. Assign operation intervals. Designate reporting procedures. Coordinate deployed assets security. Coordinate fire support. 2-1 IT 0515

19 Verify emplacement. Check with operations to determine friendly surveillance area activity. Revise operation as the tactical situation changes. Update ground surveillance overlay. Most functions performed during the implementation stage are similar to initial planning stages, except you are in the action phase. FINAL GROUND SURVEILLANCE PLAN PREPARATION Upon GSP approval, it is prepared in final format and incorporated as part of the intelligence annex to the operations order (OPORD). You must ensure-- The GSP is complete, readable, and understandable. Projected surveillance assets are addressed. Specific missions are stated. Specific support requirements are covered. The plan now becomes part of the intelligence annex to the OPORD, which, when signed by the S3, is the official order of the commander. What had previously been only a draft plan now becomes tasking requirements, directives, and requests which must be performed for successful mission accomplishment. The OPORD is transmitted to the next higher headquarters, adjacent, and all lower headquarters. Upon receipt, subordinate and attached assets commence preparations to complete assigned missions-- GSR teams move to designated areas to select and prepare specific locations. REMBASS teams begin emplacement of sensor strings and fields, and establish monitor and relay sites. Operations commence as directed by the OPORD, unless otherwise specified. Once the operation of surveillance assets is initiated, or the actual tactical operation begins, the plan is considered implemented. IT

20 ACTION FOLLOWING IMPLEMENTATION Verify Locations. It is now necessary to verify the exact locations of GSR sites and REMBASS strings and fields to-- Ensure surveillance asset can perform the mission from that location. Accurately interpret information received from that asset. Provide security coordination. Security coordination for each team will be accomplished by the section leader with the tactical unit to which he is attached. This security support usually only includes the organic weapons of the supported unit. The organic weapons available depend on the type of unit. There are times when division artillery (DivArty) is needed. When this occurs, you can aid your teams' GSR and REMBASS missions by-- Requesting fire support through your supported unit S2. Ensuring your S2 notes exact team locations. Informing the S2 targets detected by GSS teams are immediate objectives, and as such, can be fired upon as targets of opportunity. Exact site location is paramount to preclude the possibility of their receiving accidental friendly artillery fire. In addition, the location of REMBASS monitor and relay sites are further assessed for future use. Revising Operation. Once locational data are established, information concerning problems encountered is submitted from each GSR or REMBASS team. Problems which may arise are-- Unforeseen terrain limitations. Inability to implant sensors due to enemy action. Loss of assets to enemy action. Equipment loss or malfunction. Interference from unpredicted/severe weather conditions. Changes to the planned tactical operation. 2-3 IT 0515

21 Each problem requires reallocation of other surveillance assets. The plan is then adjusted to compensate for the problems, and new instructions are issued. GSP changes will normally be in the form of fragmentary orders (FRAGO). The most important considerations are to maintain complete coverage and obtain required information. There must be a constant battlefield information flow--there can be no surveillance gaps. TACTICAL SITUATION Changes. Following enemy confrontation, the tactical situation will change rapidly and frequently, causing constant GSP changes. Intelligence personnel must keep the GSP current at all times by making timely and accurate adjustments. In determining changes, intelligence personnel must know what-- Is happening to friendly troops. Actions are planned. The enemy is doing. Information concerning friendly forces can be obtained from the S3 section. Information concerning enemy forces is derived from the S2 section. Adjustments. When adjustments need to be made, the same procedures used in initial planning are followed-- Determine new missions based on new PIR/IR. Ensure complete coverage. Assign operating requirements. Designate reporting procedures. Coordinate for fire support. Coordinate for security. Follow-up Actions. The same follow-up actions apply-- Verify location(s). Adjust to meet demands for all newly assigned elements. IT

22 Overlap Surveillance. To receive the most complete, accurate information, overlapping surveillance assets are a must. Update overlay whenever an existing asset is to be relocated or a new asset used. This enables you to-- "See" the location. Determine if the assets can provide the required overlapping coverage. Determine if alternate missions can be accomplished. Operating Intervals. A critical key consideration during a tactical situation is the duration of the GSR equipment operating interval. It is vital for team safety and mission accomplishment that ECCM, common sense, and logic be observed at all times by all team personnel. NOTE: Do not establish a set operating interval, pattern, or operate equipment on a continuous basis. By observing these procedures, you minimize the possibility of enemy monitoring activity and identifying your location. Impart your knowledge and experience in this area to subordinates--you will build up and gain their confidence and ensure team professionalism. Security Measures. Do your utmost to ensure teams receive the required supported unit security assistance. Advise the S2 or commander of your teams' requirements, and work closely with him in fulfilling these needs. The attached teams must be fully integrated into the supported unit's plans. Observe and practice the following-- Keep fully abreast of new or additional security requirements resulting from the changing tactical situation. Maintain constant communication with the supported unit. Be prepared for emergency contingencies, and have alternate measures ready for immediate implementation. Friendly Movement. Whenever friendly elements will be operating within the GSS surveillance area, the teams should be immediately informed of-- When the element will enter the area. How long they will remain. When they will return. 2-5 IT 0515

23 Travel route. AO. SOI. These actions will not only preclude the possibility of GSS teams mistakenly identifying friendly elements as enemy, but should a patrol become disoriented or require assistance in returning to its unit, a GSR team can guide it to friendly lines. Reporting Procedures. All reports on enemy activity should be sent in standard spot report format, unless otherwise specified in the supported unit's SOP. IT

26 LESSON 3 BRIEF/DEBRIEF GROUND SURVEILLANCE PERSONNEL OVERVIEW TASK DESCRIPTION: To effectively brief/debrief ground surveillance mission personnel. LEARNING OBJECTIVE: ACTION: CONDITIONS: STANDARD: To prepare ground surveillance teams for movement. Given a mission briefing, operation order, battle area operation overlay, intelligence annex, and area of operations 1:50,000 scale map. To brief/debrief ground surveillance mission personnel to satisfy collection requirements. REFERENCES: FM 34-3, Intelligence Analysis, Jul 87. FM 101-5, Staff Organization and Operations, May 84. INTRODUCTION Purpose. Briefings are conducted at platoon and supported unit levels, and serve a vitally important purpose--to assist teams in mission accomplishment. As a platoon sergeant, one of the first steps in preparing teams for movement will be to give them a mission briefing prior to their departure. The mission briefing purpose is to identify-- Basic mission data. Where and when to report. To whom to report. Suggested travel route. This information can generally be obtained from the intelligence and surveillance (I&S) company or tactical surveillance officer (TSO) /tactical operations center (TOC). NOTE: A team should never depart for any operation without as much information as possible as the tactical situation permits. 3-1 IT 0515

27 Content. Mission briefings contain information relative to the general and specific mission requirements (usually from the tasking statement) and the current tactical situation Friendly forces information Organization. Disposition. Plans. Friendly forces information must be restricted to only that which the team is required to know for mission accomplishment. Enemy forces information Disposition. Current estimate of capabilities, intentions, and probable courses of action. Known and suspected activity within the team AO. GSR team's mission and area information DEBRIEFINGS Key terrain features and limitations. AO description. Fire support considerations. Reporting requirements/procedures. Command and signal requirements. When possible, use a map during the briefing to provide the team with a graphic AO portrayal. Purpose. Debriefings are a means to provide the field commander with information which-- Is of immediate intelligence or tactical value. Confirms or denies previously known/collected information. Forms the basis for future operational planning. IT

28 As the platoon sergeant, you will often be responsible for specific GSR team debriefing. A thorough debriefing is a must since it is a source of important intelligence information. Surveillance teams operating forward of line of own troops (FLOT) /line of departure (LD) and/or traveling throughout the battle area, observe many objects and activities of intelligence value which otherwise may not be reported. Unless teams are properly debriefed, such information may never reach intelligence channels. NOTE: The debriefing should be conducted as soon as possible after mission completion. Procedures Ensure all team members are present. Have team leader provide narrative of the team's mission and travels. Permit team members to provide additional information where possible. Once all team members have made their contributions, question the team as a whole concerning-- Commander's PIR/IR. Enemy activities not previously reported. Events not fully explained in the narrative. Special areas of interest. New weapons or equipment encountered. Captured enemy documents (CED) or equipment (CEE). Other information of possible value. Upon debriefing conclusion, forward results in the prescribed format as rapidly as possible. The unit SOP will specify correct procedures. NOTE: Known or suspected urgent information must be relayed at any point in the debriefing to ensure its timeliness and value. 3-3 IT 0515

29 LESSON 3 Practice Exercise The following questions are on the lesson material. There is only one correct answer to each question. Upon exercise completion, check your answers with the answer sheet. If you answer any question incorrectly, restudy the lesson part which contains the correct answer. 1. What is the primary reason for conducting a briefing prior to deploying a team? 2. Name two sources which provide the platoon sergeant with current briefing information. 3. List three types of information contained in the briefing. 4. Where do the general and specific mission requirements come from? 5. Why should a map be present at a briefing? 6. Why is it important to conduct a thorough debriefing? 7. When should the debriefing be conducted? 8. List four procedures to be followed in team debriefing. 9.
