  Army Health System Symbols
  This appendix depicts and describes a variety of symbols and control measures related
  to AHS tactical mission tasks. The appendix does not attempt to produce all
  conceivable combinations for AHS symbols or control measures, but rather, it shows
  several examples of each type as a starting point. Readers should refer to MIL-STD
  2525D and ADP 1-02 for more information about military symbols.
  F-1. Military symbols are governed by the rules in MIL-STD 2525D. Army Doctrine Publication 1-02 is
  the Army proponent publication for all military symbols and complies with MIL-STD 2525D.
  F-2. Army Doctrine Publication 1-02 provides a single standard for developing and depicting hand drawn
  and computer-generated military symbols for situation maps, overlays, and annotated aerial photographs for
  all types of military operations. A military symbol is a graphic representation of a unit, equipment,
  installation, activity, control measure, or tactical task relevant to military operations that is used for planning
  or to represent the common operational picture on a map, display, or overlay. Chapters 4–7 of ADP 1-02
  also provide an extensive number of icons and modifiers for building a variety of framed symbols. Refer to
  Table F-1 for medical main icons.
