To reduce this risk, dismounted forces must be aware of reported EO and understand procedures for avoiding, recognizing, reacting to, and reporting EO hazards appropriately. (paragraph 1)
Aviation units should be aware of potential EO hazard areas and conduct a thorough reconnaissance and a preliminary area sweep for EO before occupying assembly areas and forward arming and refueling points, or conducting casualty evacuation tasks and other operations. (paragraph 1)
When planning to conduct operations in an EO environment, commanders and staffs should support EO operations with security, logistic support, safe holding areas, and disposal sites. (paragraph 1)
Prior to operational commitment, unit commanders should ensure forces receive EO hazard recognition training and immediate-action training, including hazard reporting. (paragraph 1)
To identify the location of UXO, place UXO markers above ground, at waist level (about three feet), with the bomb pointing down. (paragraph 8)
