SALUTE is a quick way to remember what information is most important when assessing the enemy/opfor forces. (1) S-Size. Report the number of personnel, vehicles, aircraft, or size of an object. (2) A-Activity. Report detailed account of actions, for example, direction of movement, troops digging in, artillery fire, type of attack, NBC activity, etc. (3) L-Location. Report where you saw the activity. Include grid coordinates or reference from a known point including the distance and direction from the known point. (4) U-Unit. Report the enemy's unit. If the unit is unknown, report any distinctive features, such as uniforms, patches or colored tabs, headgear, vehicle identification markings, etc. (5) T-Time. Report the time the activity was observed, not the time you report it. Always report local or Zulu time. (6) E-Equipment. Report all equipment associated with the activity, such as weapons, vehicles, tools. If unable to identify the equipment, provide as much detail as you can so an identification can be made by higher headquarters.

Alrighty then, got the SALUTE Thread back up, remember, you are an 'expert' on the normal activity in your area, see something out of the norm, then report it here and we as a network will research & validate. If needed we can then alert our Networks.
