Could someone translate this for us military ignorant. Thank you.
This is an operations order and from what I could see it supersedes a previous order covering the same thing. All services use OpOrds to set the framework for an action or need. The individual subordinate commanders are to set up more specific plans that meet the specifics and guidance set out in the order within the capabilities and structure of their individua commands and units. It provides the specific rules and general guidance that subordinates use to create unit activation plans. There are orders written for most expected contingencies and requirements within all the services.
