text: Introduction
  DOD and NATO terms with multiple definitions. The related definition number will precede the definition
  to denote the definition or definitions applicable to Army doctrine. For example, the DOD term “convoy”
  has two different definitions (1 and 2) for this term, and the Army only uses definition number 2 in doctrine:
  convoy — (DOD) 2. A group of vehicles organized for the purpose of control and orderly movement with or
  without escort protection that moves over the same route at the same time and under one commander. (JP 3-
  02)
  In addition, two other descriptors may appear after a definition, but are not part of the definition:
  (cid:120) Also called.
  (cid:120) See also.
  Also called. If a term has a shortened form (acronym or abbreviation) approved for doctrinal use, the
  shortened form appears after the definition, preceded by also called, as in the following example:
  after action review — A guided analysis of an organization’s performance, conducted at appropriate times
  during and at the conclusion of a training event or operation with the objective of improving future
  performance. It includes a facilitator, event participants, and other observers. (FM 7-0) Also called AAR.
  See also. If related terms are defined elsewhere in FM 1-02.1, they are cross-referenced after the definition.
  The related terms are bolded and preceded by “See also,” as in the following example:
  area security — A security task conducted to protect friendly forces, installation routes, and actions within
  a specific area. (ADP 3-90) See also area reconnaissance.
  The acronym and abbreviation entries listed in section I of chapter 2 are Army and joint. Shortened forms
  applicable only to Army doctrine are shown in boldface, to distinguish Army from joint usage. Acronyms
  are added to FM 1-02.1 and the online “Army Dictionary” when a defined term has an associated acronym
  or if an acronym has doctrinal cross branch or functional usage. The cross-branch usage criterion for
  considering an acronym for inclusion is that it must appear in two or more doctrinal publications that are not
  branch specific or related.
