Which of the following is NOT a possible content of the Method of Engagement?

• A. Target Location and Description
• B. Type of Adjustment
• C. Danger Close
• D. Mark

Answer: (A)

The key idea here is what the Method of Engagement covers. The Method of Engagement describes how the fires will be executed against a target—the approach you’ll use to bring effects on target and the safety or coordination constraints that apply during the engagement. It includes items like marking the target to help shooters locate it (Mark), any safety or proximity considerations (Danger Close), and how you want the fire adjustments to be made (Type of Adjustment).

Target Location and Description, on the other hand, is about identifying and describing where the target is. That information is used to find the target, but it isn’t part of the plan for how you’ll engage it. It belongs in a different section that documents the target’s location and description, not in the methods for executing the strike. So Target Location and Description isn’t content you’d put under the Method of Engagement, making it the correct answer.
