In the Troop Leading Procedures, which step comes after the 'Receive the mission' step?

• A. Receive the mission
• B. Initiate movement
• C. Issue a WARNO
• D. Complete the plan

Answer: (C)

After you receive the mission, you immediately issue a WARNO. The Warning Order quickly tells subordinates what’s happening: the mission, initial intent, key tasks, and approximate timelines so units can start preparing right away. It keeps everyone informed and synchronized as you begin planning, before you move on to more detailed actions. Movement and the full planning unfold after that initial alert, once the team has a heads‑up and can coordinate accordingly.
