What are the risk levels used in a risk assessment?

Extremely high, high, moderate, and low. The level determines who has the authority to accept the residual risk, which is why the assessment goes to the right approval level before execution.

Is composite risk management still the correct term, and what worksheet is used today?

No. The Army dropped composite risk management and returned to risk management with the publication of ATP 5-19. The deliberate risk assessment worksheet is DD Form 2977. DA Form 7566, the old composite risk management worksheet, is obsolete.

Walk me through the screening process under the Army Body Composition Program.

The Soldier is weighed and measured for height and compared against the screening table weight for their height, age, and sex. A Soldier at or under the screening weight passes and no further assessment is required. A Soldier over the screening weight receives a body fat assessment. If the body fat result exceeds the standard for their age and sex, the Soldier is enrolled in the program and flagged.

What are your priorities during care under fire?

Return fire and gain fire superiority, keep yourself from becoming a casualty, and get the casualty to cover if it can be done safely. The only medical treatment expected is stopping life-threatening extremity bleeding with a tourniquet. Airway management and detailed assessment wait until tactical field care.

What is a METL and what is a T and EO?

A METL is a mission-essential task list, the tasks a unit must be able to perform to accomplish what it was designed to do. A training and evaluation outline, or T and EO, is the standard for a specific task: the conditions, the standard, and the performance measures a leader uses to evaluate it. The T and EO is the starting point for any honest proficiency assessment.

What is a SALUTE report?

The standard format for reporting information about the enemy. Size, activity, location, unit or uniform, time, and equipment. Report it accurately and fast, and keep facts separate from your assessment.

What is the Army Body Composition Program and what regulation governs it?

The Army Body Composition Program, or ABCP, is the program that ensures Soldiers maintain the military appearance and body composition the Army requires and are able to meet the physical demands of duty. AR 600-9 governs it. The regulation is dated July 2019, and the assessment method has been changed by Army directive since then, so use the current directive with the regulation.
