Combat effectiveness and selected
information graphics
When task force commanders indicate their unit has "some difficulty"
performing its mission, you fill in the bottom third of the effectiveness
graphic.
If task force commanders indicate their unit has a major
problem performing its mission, you fill in the right-hand and bottom
two-thirds of the graphic. Should task force commanders indicate their
unit "cannot" perform its mission, you fill in the entire effectiveness
graphic. With each preceding effectiveness decision, you would fill in
the portion(s) of the selected information graphic that a task force
commander used to make his decision (figure 1-48).
(b) Symbols show maneuver assets.
The standard operational
symbol for a task force does not show the task force's maneuver assets
(composition).
When a commander requires this information, you use a
decision graphic to fulfill this requirement. In the decision graphic,
you place graphics to represent the various units that make up the task
force. Figure 1-49 shows the standard symbols used to represent tank,
mechanized, armored, and an infantry company/teams.
To indicate any other company-sized elements that make up the task force,
you place the unit's branch symbol in the decision graphic. Figure 1-50
shows examples of other-company-sized units using branch symbols.
FM
101-5-1 provides a list of branch symbols you use for the graphic.
