MISSIONS AND TYPES OF PATROLS
Patrol Defined. A patrol is a detachment of ground forces sent out by a larger unit for the purpose of:
Gathering information Conducting security missions Carrying out destructive or harassing
missions
![Page 35: Marine Rifle Squad. TERMINAL LEARNING OBJECTIVES Without the aid of reference, given 782- gear, assigned weapon, and assignment as a member of a squad,](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649cf05503460f949bfac1/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Reconnaissance Patrols The commander needs information about
the enemy and the terrain he controls. Information must be timely and accurate,
to assist his decisions. Reconnaissance patrols are one of the
most reliable sources for this information.
![Page 36: Marine Rifle Squad. TERMINAL LEARNING OBJECTIVES Without the aid of reference, given 782- gear, assigned weapon, and assignment as a member of a squad,](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649cf05503460f949bfac1/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Reconnaissance Patrols A reconnaissance patrol is capable of
carrying the search for information into the area occupied by enemy forces, usually beyond the range of vision or ground observation, and is capable of examining objects and events at close range.
![Page 37: Marine Rifle Squad. TERMINAL LEARNING OBJECTIVES Without the aid of reference, given 782- gear, assigned weapon, and assignment as a member of a squad,](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649cf05503460f949bfac1/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Missions Reconnaissance patrols include gaining
information about: identification of enemy units and equipment the location and characteristics of friendly
or hostile positions unusual enemy activity routes, stream/river crossings, obstacles, or
terrain
![Page 38: Marine Rifle Squad. TERMINAL LEARNING OBJECTIVES Without the aid of reference, given 782- gear, assigned weapon, and assignment as a member of a squad,](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649cf05503460f949bfac1/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Area reconnaissance A directed effort to obtain detailed
information concerning specific terrain or enemy activity within a specific location.
Information about a particular town, bridge, road junction, or other terrain features or enemy activity critical to operations
Emphasis is placed on reaching the area without being detected.
![Page 39: Marine Rifle Squad. TERMINAL LEARNING OBJECTIVES Without the aid of reference, given 782- gear, assigned weapon, and assignment as a member of a squad,](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649cf05503460f949bfac1/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Zone reconnaissance A directed effort to obtain detailed
information concerning all routes, obstacles, to include chemical or biological contamination, terrain, and enemy forces within a particular zone defined by specific boundaries.
![Page 40: Marine Rifle Squad. TERMINAL LEARNING OBJECTIVES Without the aid of reference, given 782- gear, assigned weapon, and assignment as a member of a squad,](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649cf05503460f949bfac1/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Route reconnaissance A reconnaissance along a specific line of
communications, such as a road, railway, or waterway, to provide information on conditions and activities along the route.
Terrain features that can control the use of the route must be reconnoitered.
![Page 41: Marine Rifle Squad. TERMINAL LEARNING OBJECTIVES Without the aid of reference, given 782- gear, assigned weapon, and assignment as a member of a squad,](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649cf05503460f949bfac1/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Considerations For Route Recon Traffic-ability Locations of obstacle emplacements. Critical points Danger areas The route reconnaissance is narrower in
scope than the zone reconnaissance.
![Page 42: Marine Rifle Squad. TERMINAL LEARNING OBJECTIVES Without the aid of reference, given 782- gear, assigned weapon, and assignment as a member of a squad,](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649cf05503460f949bfac1/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Combat patrols Combat patrols are assigned missions that

Economy of force Economy of force patrols perform limited
objective missions such as seizing and holding key terrain to allow maximum forces to be used elsewhere.
![Page 49: Marine Rifle Squad. TERMINAL LEARNING OBJECTIVES Without the aid of reference, given 782- gear, assigned weapon, and assignment as a member of a squad,](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649cf05503460f949bfac1/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
