- How to issue the Op-Order (OSMEAC) - 5 paragraph order
O - Orientation (Present Loc, Direction of Attack, Objective Loc)
S - Situation (Enemy Forces, Friendly Forces)
M - Mission (When Who What Where Why)
E - Execution (Concept of Operation & Tasks)
A - Administration & Logistics (Beans, Bullets, Band-Aids, Bad-Guys)
C - Command & Signal (Succession of Command, HAVOC)
Just an interesting note: as a Grunt in a fire team we were told that the Commander's intent was the most important piece of info in the OpOrd... When the plan goes to shit (and it will) it is important to know what you are trying to accomplish...
definitely need your tasking and purpose as well.
PSA at OCS from 2018 on, Commanders intent is now a part of it. It is broken down into three areas Purpose, Method and End State. Why do you need to do this mission, How are you going to, and how do you want the battlefield to look after the objective is achieved.
Good stuff! I wish we had these kind of resources when I went through ROTC back in the late '80s.
Thanks for the video. One of the best Op Order explanations I've heard.
I appreciate your feedback, I felt like it was long overdue! You're welcome.
Great summary when you've been exposed to the details already. The mnemonics are great.
This is how I still organize my thoughts and plans, even after college. A Marine I was once close with taught me how to write them.
I'm a Seabee and we use all of this. Much appreciated.
Good videos man. I ship out to OCC this weekend.
How did it go
@@alexmark8917 good man. Just graduated. Had to go to a later class.
@@TheAj35brunson sweet bro I’m trying to be selected still. What was the hardest part? Thanks for your service and semper fi brother
@@alexmark8917 I went through winter so for me it was the cold. The E course kind of suck too.
@@TheAj35brunson what’s the time limit on e course? It’s only 2.5 miles correct?

Great video thank you. Leaving in 2 weeks for ocs and this was a good refresher
Leave it to officers to take something as simple as S.A.L.U.T.E. report and twist it up.
OCS makes the rules. Not Officer Candidates. We were taught in the form TSUALE because it flows better in the Op-Order.
😂
This is nice video and well done for your work which your doing .Congratulations for your work.
great breakdown
Thanks! I try to break things down the best I can so that it's easier to understand.
When the primary purpose of SMEAC was to be universal for all NATO allies and the marine corps diverges and adds the "O"
I learned SALUTE: size, activity, location, unit, time, equipment..
HARLEY D a S.A.L.U.T.E. report and a S.M.E.A.C. are different. there's also B.A.M.C.I.S. as well as several others. if you are an Infantryman or Artillery man these become common phrases...
@@gunchief0811 No, he means SALUTE instead of TSUALE. you mean SMEAC instead of SMESC. (Administration = sustainment)
That's a SITREP for friendly or enemy
@@gunchief0811 SMEAC Contains both SALUTE and DRAW-D within the situation paragraph. If you are an infantryman you should know this.
@@roadbrewreview5190 relax dude. 21 years in the Marines we did S.M.E.A.C. (5 paragraph order all the time for missions.
Sometimes there was no available S.A.L.U.T.E. to give an accurate assessment of enemy size and disposition.
U dont need to try to sound all hard hy trying to be just another internet tough guy ng y trying to shame someone about their level of infantry knowledge.
I can add to the discussion and bring your expertise and experience to the table and leave ur ego in your Ruck.where it belongs...
Did I leave something out?
I didn't know I was giving a P.O.I. for your amusement.
Carry on brotha and
Keep learning and improving like a good warrior should do for his entire life...
Then our S.M.E.A.C. will be complete and the mission will he accomplished.
U may have served at Ft. Benning or Ft. HOOD.pr Ft. Leonord wood or wherever. And your experience was different than mine for the many years I served..
I'm not claiming glory or war hero status. Nor am I saying I know more than you or anyone else... as an infantryman/Artilleryman / Marine Martial artist / Rifle and pistol coach.
Thers many areas I excelled in.
Doenst make me absolutely perfect in any area.
It's always good to improve.and open up for something that I dont know.
I never claimed i was worlds best infantryman..
Did u misread that?
I've heard HAS-A

The Kiwis use G for Ground as opposed to O. Nice brief, thanks.
Long life and prosperity
Thank you Sir.
1:07 just don’t let a butter bar get my fire team lost
Why did you abbreviate 'Enemy Forces' as "TSUALE" instead of "SALUTE"?
Thats how its briefed at OCS, TSUALE
@@ValentineUSMC Can you please share a link to the MCWP or other academic material where this is explained?
You wont find an MCDP or SOP manual that explains it, just know its the same abbreviations but briefed as TSUALE.
@@ValentineUSMC Correct. That is how it is taught at OCS. The form SALUTE is easy to remember. But the form TSUALE Flows better during the Op-Order.
Hey man, my recruiter is saying that if I attend OCS via the PLC program and finish OCS successfully I can then decide if I want to commission as an officer or go back to being a civilian. is this really true?
Yes. This is true. The advantage of going Platoon Leaders Class (PLC) is that you can attend PLC Juniors one summer (6 weeks) and then have 1 whole year to decide whether you want to go to PLC Seniors (6 weeks) the following summer. I believe that even if you complete PLC Seniors, you can decline commission.
Going PLC gives you time to decide whether you want this or not. Good Luck!
Yes, the way my Captain explained it was you don't have to accept the contract even if you successfully complete OCS. If you don't want to be there, they don't want you there.
Assimilating this for business. Thanks.
You're welcome!
could you please preview a real OPORD in the field?
I'm just trying to get through AIC man.
TSUALE?!? Don’t you mean SALUTE?
It used to be briefed as SALUTE. But simply because the accronym SALUTE is easy to memorize. It is now briefed to flow better in the form of TSUALE.
is it possible to decline commison after ocs ?
Yes. You have the choice to either accept or decline commission upon completing Marine Corps OCS.
Christopher Pierre is it possible to surrender and give up if ur a little scared and u don't wanna play war anymore??? DONT JOIN!
@@gunchief0811 I hope you've found out sometime in the year since you commented, but the military isn't all about combat.
why has the Corps put so much effort into compilation combat orders O = S The Small Unit Leaders Hand book (how much does that cost?) has so many additions to the original formats, one needs a PHD. Bad guys over there. go kill them. Higher mission: win your mission Win. every unit Win. big mission is to WIN. the grunt only wants the basic mission to WIN. Where are you going to get all the tactical intel the order format requires in a firefight. you forgot the 6th W: WTF. confusion, mission focus, this guy is short list for a star. reminds me o the TBS toy soldiers and bright color plastic tape everyone was supposed to use in the field for terrain layouts in the field. something that can be lost and leave sign for enemy trackers. leave out the obvious. its raining... see W6
NATO. its not hard
SALUTE report...
You forgot Situation in your description
Thanks! I just fixed it.
