  LANDING ZONE AND DROP ZONE CONTROL RECORDS
  B-10. The leader can make up an LZ/DZ control record based on the example formats shown in
  Figure B-2, page B-4. He uses this to record aircraft arrivals, departures, and load types. This record
  provides information for both ground and aviation commanders. It helps account for personnel and
  equipment. It can also help leaders initiate or conduct search-and-rescue operations for overdue or downed
  aircraft. The pathfinder internal radio net(work) operator, located at the control center, normally maintains
  this record.
