One thing that I doubt has changed though is the emphasis on the 5 paragraph order throughout the whole course. Writing and presenting orders is essentially free and doesn't require any range clearance. It does not matter what you do for preparation, your instructors will completely pick apart the first order presented by everyone in your class ...
You can also ask questions if anything is unclear (don’t be afraid to ask questions or for them to repeat something) the only thing is you have about 10 minutes to execute the mission, but it’s really like 8 minutes because of the brief. Just try to stay calm and prep portions of your op order beforehand. 5. Reply. Award.

Commander's Intent: (The purpose of the operations) Often times issues arise and the order cannot be followed out in the way it was written and adjustments need to be made (almost every time). The commander's intent allows the small unit leaders to make decisions while conscious of what the commander wants to accomplish.
So learn the 5 paragraph order. If you want, I'll even send you a PDF of a skeleton you can print out booklet-sized, laminate and I think even bring to OCS to use. Study all the basic Marine Corps knowledge out there like Rifleman's Creed, Code of Conduct, General Orders, Leadership Traits and Principles, the Marines' Hymn, and attributes of ...
Higher’s mission: On order, first platoon will assault xyz. Task: 1st squad, on order, you will assault the left 1/3 of xyz. That task will now be the mission you brief to your squad. And obviously you’ll fill in the rest of the 5 paragraph order skeleton based off what you’re given by the instructors and you can add your own shit if you ...
