8. STAFF ESTIMATE
This a US translation for a French “ point de situation ”. This is not the typical format of a US
Staff Estimate. This a “SITREP”.
General, it is (time). Your intent was to (concept of operations, phases). Phase (number) is ongoing. The division is currently conducting (task).
In comparison with the original OPORD, the situation could evolve in the following way:
(possible evolution).
In order to issue a new (staff work type), I intend to brief you on the current situation, and then
to provide you with the staff estimate, and eventually to recommend a new COA.
The division’s subordinate units have reached the line (from left to right, 1st echelon, reserve).
Their current situation is (disposition, CE, availability for the mission).
The division reserve could be committed within (time) with the following constraints: .....
(strength) of the div arty. The target priority is (types of target in priority order). (Artillery
units) are not committed and should be available within (time).
The ADA units are deployed in (areas) and they are tasked to (mission).
The DSA is set up in (area). The stock levels are the following: (levels).
The situation of the neighboring units is the following:
Obstacles have been laid down according to the obstacle plan:
NBC strikes took place at (time) in (location). (Area) is currently contaminated and (units)
should be considered for decontamination operations as soon as possible. (Other units) are on
MOPP (NBC posture).
The enemy units in contact are (dispositions, composition, strength, capabilities, COAs). In
depth, (units, dispositions, composition, strength) could (capabilities, COAs) within (time) in
(area). In order to determine the actual enemy course of action, recommended essentials
element of informations (EEIs) are the following:
In order to facilitate our action, we will be provided offensive EW support as of (time). The
next CP shift will take place at (time), the future location will be at (location). The tactical CP
will be set up for (operation or phase).
Taking into account the enemy’s assets on the one hand, and our strength and the expected
reinforcements on the other hand, the strength ratio is:

Analyse terrain / Terrain analysis
Terrain feature
Wooded areas
Advantages
Possibility to set up ambushes
Can provide cover and concealment
If numerous possibility to canalize the
enemy
If improved, can be used to slow down
the enemy
can be used to delay the enemy
Drawbacks
(If “held” by the enemy)
Possible surprise attacks
The enemy might have set up booby traps
Might hinder our advance by slowing our
momentum down
If conducting offensive operation:
Facilitates the advance and momentum
If conducting an offensive operation
Offers good firing possibilities
If conducting an offensive operation
None!
If conducting a defensive operation
This type of terrain can only be improved
with minefields or traps. It is hence
difficult to delay the enemy.
Depending on the type of equipment:
again the momentum can be slowed
down
We can be canalized and fired at by the
enemy.
Good observation point for the enemy
who can observe our advance
Rivers and canals
Open terrain
Broken terrain
If conducting defensive operation:
High grounds can be used as
observation or firing positions.
If many: possibility to canalize the
enemy
the brigade might need mobility support
with crossing capabilities on the part of
the engineers
manoeuvre tempo might be slowed down
Bien sûr ce tableau n’est pas exhaustif mais il comporte suffisamment de vocabulaire et de conclusions
pour “défendre” votre partie terrain.
