031-503-3005 (SL2) - Submit an NBC 1 Report
Standards: Submitted the NBC 1 report with the required information. Completed and submitted a spot report (SPOTREP) to give an immediate attack notification.

1.   React to an NBC attack or hazard.

a. React to a nuclear attack or hazard.

b. React to a chemical or biological attack or hazard.

Note. The purpose of the SPOTREP is to give immediate notification of the NBC attack.

2.   Submit a SPOTREP immediately (use the size, activity, location, unit, time, and equipment [SALUTE] format if possible) for attack notification.

3.   Submit an NBC 1 (observer’s) report after gathering the available data.

a. Complete the required information as outlined in GTA 03-06-008, FM 3-3 (chemical or biological), or FM 3-3-1 (nuclear) to include—

(1)  Line B: Location of observer (use grid coordinates or place name).

(2)  Line D: Date-time group (DTG) of the attack (specify local or Zulu time).

(3)  Line H: Type and height of burst (nuclear) or type of agent and persistency (chemical or biological).

(4)  Line C: Direction of attack in mils or degrees from the observer;          or

       Line F: Location of attack, grid coordinates, or place name.

b. Select the proper communication precedence.

Note.  Flash reports should NOT be delayed for lack of information.

(1)  Use flash precedence if this is the first attack of its type (the first nuclear attack, the first biological attack, or the first chemical attack). (Flash precedence is used to report the first use of NBC weapons against U.S. troops.)

Note.  A flash precedence is used to report the first use of NBC weapons against U.S. troops.

(2)  Use immediate precedence for all other attacks.

Note.  Line L (nuclear) is measured 5 minutes after the attack, and Line M (nuclear) is measured 10 minutes after the attack.  Submit the NBC 1 nuclear report after Line L or Line M is measured.  The M256-series chemical agent detector kit takes 16 minutes to produce reliable results.  Submit the NBC 1 Report after this test is done.

c. Submit the NBC 1 report to the correct places.

Note.  Units selected by the division level NBC center (NBCC) as designated observers (applies only to nuclear bursts) also submit the NBC 1 report directly to the division level NBCC.  All units submit the NBC 1 report to their higher headquarters.
