  determine the significance of the document. A non-linguist may be able to do
  a degree of preliminary screening based on document format and the location
  where the document was found.
  I-26.As screeners screen each document, they assign one of four category
  designations. The assigned category determines the document's priority for
  exploitation and evacuation. Document screening requires that the screening
  units receive the most current PIR and intelligence requirements; current
  friendly and enemy situation update; and relevant OB information.
  Screeners at higher echelons can re-categorize CEDs, to more accurately
  reflect the requirements at that level or information that has past its LTIOV.
  DOCUMENT CATEGORIES
  I-27.Documents are divided into categories to prioritize their evacuation and
  the extraction of information from them for intelligence purposes. Document
  categories are discussed below.
  Category A
  I-28.Category A documents are those that require priority evacuation and/or
  special handling because of their special intelligence value. They contain
  SALUTE reportable information. Category A documents also include those
  that are of interest to another command, collecting agency, or other agency
  (for example, TECHINT, Air Force, Navy, PSYOP, Cryptography).
  I-29. What determines if a document is a Category A document changes
  according to the operational environment and will be set forth in each
  DOCEX element's SOP and in Annex B (Intelligence) of the unit’s OPORD.
  Documents that are evidence in legal proceedings against captured personnel
  suspected of crimes against humanity and war crimes will be handled as
  Category A documents. All Category A documents are handled as SECRET.
  Standard Category A documents include but are not limited to—
  • Unmarked maps.
  •
  Maps and charts containing any operational graphics, which are sent
  to the G2/S2. From G2/S2, they would be evacuated to the all-source
  analysis center.
  •
  Air Force related documents, which should go to the nearest Air Force
  headquarters.
  • Navy related documents, which should be sent to the nearest Navy
  headquarters.
  • TECHINT-related documents, which are evacuated to the nearest
  TECHINT unit.
  • Cryptographic and communications-related documents, which are
  evacuated to the nearest SIGINT analysis unit.
  • Documents constituting evidence to be used in legal proceedings
  against persons suspected of crimes against humanity and war crimes,
