Which of the following is NOT part of a SALUTE report?

• A. Size
• B. Location
• C. Weather
• D. Equipment

Answer: (C)

In a SALUTE report, you’re giving a concise, six-item snapshot of what you observe during a reconnaissance. The elements covered are the Size of the group, the Activity they’re engaged in, the Location of the sighting, the Uniforms you can identify, the Time of the observation, and the Equipment visible. Weather isn’t included in this format, so it doesn’t belong in a SALUTE entry. If you observe a squad, you’d report how many there are, where they are, what they’re doing, what uniforms they wear, the exact time, and any equipment you can discern, but you’d handle weather information separately in a different brief.
