  and HUMINT commanders and leaders can anticipate collection
  requirements, develop source profiles, recommend deployment
  strategies, and otherwise integrate HUMINT operations into the
  overall unit operation. Although the OPORD needs to be read and
  understood in its entirety, certain areas are of critical importance to
  the HUMINT collection effort. They include––
   Task organization. This will show where HUMINT C2, staff support,
  and collection assets will fit into the organizational structure.
   Situation. This gives the friendly and enemy situation.
   Mission. This gives the HUMINT collectors insight into how their
  operations will integrate into the parent unit’s operation.
   Execution. The four execution subparagraphs explain the
  commander’s intent on how the mission is to be carried out:
  − Subparagraph 3a (Concept of Operation) includes how sub-
  ordinate units’ operations will be included in the overall plan.
  − Subparagraph 3a(3) (Reconnaissance and Surveillance) details
  how HUMINT collection operations will integrate into the
  overall ISR plan. Additional information on ISR is found in
  Annex L.
  − Subparagraph 3a(4) (Intelligence), along with Annex A (Task
  Organization) and Annex B (Intelligence), explains how the
  Intelligence BOS will support the scheme of maneuver.
  − Subparagraph 3d (Coordinating Instructions) lists the CCIRs
  and initial PIRs.
  • Current events. The HUMINT collector must be knowledgeable about
  current events in all potential operational areas, especially those
  events that indicate the populace’s feelings or intentions toward the
  US. This will facilitate a better understanding of the cultural, political,
  and socio-economic conditions that could influence the attitude and
  behavior of a source. This knowledge can be obtained and updated
  through classified periodic intelligence publications and/or military or
  civilian open sources, including both print and broadcast media, CA
  and PSYOP databases, and the J/G/S2 analytical elements.
  • SOPs. The HUMINT collector must be familiar not only with his own
  unit's SOP but also with that of any supported unit. The HUMINT
  collector will be able to obtain specific information about report
  numbers and formats, as well as information about distribution
  channels for reports from these SOPs. The SOP will also explain unit
  policy on source exploitation and evacuation procedures, logistic and
  maintenance functions, and other C2 and support issues.
  • Umbrella concept. The TF commander through the J/G2 and J/G2X
  issues an umbrella concept for HUMINT operations. When operating
  under this concept, collection parameters will be established in writing,
  and it is imperative that the HUMINT collector understands his role.
  Types of sources will be outlined concerning placement, motivation,
  and access. The umbrella concept will also specify the types of
  information against which the HUMINT collector can collect. The
  umbrella concept is governed by AR 381-100 (S//NF), AR 381-172
  (S//NF), DIAM 58-11 (S//NF), and DIAM 58-12 (S//NF).
