6. Unexploded Ordnance. The UXO spot report is a detailed, swift, two-way reporting system that makes
clear where the UXO hazard areas are, what their priorities are, and which units are affected by them. The
report is used to request help in handling a UXO hazard that is beyond a unit’s ability to handle and that
affects the unit’s mission. This report helps the commander set priorities based on the battlefield situation.
a. The UXO spot report is the first echelon report that is sent when a UXO is encountered.
Information about this report is also found in GTA 9-12-1 and in the supplemental information section of
the signal operating instructions. The information must be sent by the fastest means available.
Line 1. Date-Time Group: DTG item discovered.
Line 2. Reporting Activity [unit identification code and location (grid of UXO)]
Line 3. Contact method: Radio frequency, call sign, point of contact, and telephone number.
Line 4. Type of Ordnance: Dropped, projected, placed, or thrown. If available, supply the subgroup. Give
the number of items, if more than one.
Line 5. NBC Contamination: Be as specific as possible.
Line 6. Resources Threatened: Report any equipment, facilities, or other assets that are threatened.
Line 7. Impact on Mission: Provide a short description of your current tactical situation and how the
presence of the UXO affects your status.
Line 8. Protective Measures: Describe any measures you have taken to protect personnel and equipment.
Line 9. Recommended Priority: Recommend a priority for response by EOD technicians or engineers.

PART II—TERMS AND DEFINITIONS
airborne operation. An operation involving the air movement into an objective area
of combat forces and their logistic support for execution of a tactical or a strategic
mission. The means employed may be any combination of airborne units, air trans-
portable units, and types of transport aircraft, depending on the mission and the over-
all situation.
amphibious operation. An attack launched from the sea by naval and landing forces,
embarked in ships or craft involving a landing on a hostile or potentially hostile shore.
As an entity, the amphibious operation includes the following phases:
a. Planning—The period extending form issuance of the initiating directive to em-
barkation.
b. Embarkation—The period during which the forces, with their equipment and
supplies, are embarked in the assigned shipping.
c. Rehearsal—The period during which the prospective operation is rehearsed
for the purpose of—
(1) Testing adequacy of plans, the timing of detailed operations, and the combat
readiness of participating force
(2) Ensuring that all echelons are familiar with plans
(3) Testing communications.
d. Movement—The period during which various components of the amphibious
task force move from points of embarkation to the objective area.
e. Assault—The period between the arrival of the major assault forces of the am-
phibious tasks force in the objective area and the accomplishment of the amphibious
task force mission.

his opponent. Decisive points are usually geographic in nature but could include other
physical elements, such as enemy formations, command posts, and communication
nodes.
2. A time or location where enemy weakness is positioned that allows overwhelm-
ing combat power to be generated against it. It could be an enemy weakness to be
exploited or a time when the combat potential of the enemy force is degraded.
force multiplier. A capability that, when added to and employed by a combat force,
significantly increases the combat potential of that force and thus enhances the prob-
ability of successful mission accomplishment. (Joint Pub 1-02)

forcible entry. The seizing and holding of a military lodgment in the face of armed
opposition.
intelligence preparation of the battlespace. An analytical methodology employed
to reduce uncertainties concerning the enemy, environment, and terrain for all types of
operations. Intelligence preparation of the battlespace builds an extensive data base
for each potential area in which a unit may be required to operate. The data base is
then analyzed in detail to determine the impact of the enemy, environment, and ter-
rain on operations and presents it in graphic form. Intelligence preparation of the
battlespace is a continuing process. Also called IPB. (Joint Pub 1-02)
joint operations area. An area of land, sea, and airspace, defined by a geographic
combatant commander or subordinate unified commander, in which a joint force com-
mander (normally a joint task force commander) conducts military operations to ac-
complish a specific mission. Joint operations areas are particularly useful when op-
erations are limited in scope and geographic area or when operations are to be con-
ducted on the boundaries between theaters. Also called JOA (Joint Pub 1-02)
