  Conduct Backbrief
  4-39. When mission planning is complete, the team briefs back the entire mission to the commander
  or to the commander's designated representative. The backbrief ensures the commander that the team
  understands and is prepared for the mission. They can shorten the backbrief to accommodate condensed
  planning time or as the commander requests, based on his knowledge of the team's experience and on
  who attends the backbrief. The team rehearses the backbrief to ensure that all team members understand
  all aspects of the operation. (Appendix B provides an example backbrief format.)
  Conduct Final Inspection
  4-40. The team always conducts a final inspection before the team leaves the planning area. The team
  leader inspects personnel, personal equipment, and mission equipment, especially those items identified
  during previous inspections or during rehearsals as needing correction. The team leader questions team
  members to reinforce critical aspects of the mission.
