  TASK CROSSWALK PROCESS
  B-3. The task crosswalk process is a step-by-step process that will produce a prioritized list of focused tasks
  to train at echelon. Table B-1 on page B-4 identifies important resources to assist leaders in the task crosswalk
  process.
  STEP 1: SELECT THE PRIORITIZED HIGHER ECHELON MISSION-ESSENTIAL TASK OR
  BATTLE TASK TO CROSSWALK
  B-4. A task crosswalk begins with the highest prioritized higher echelon MET, platoon or squad battle task,
  or other collective task. Leaders perform a task crosswalk from this starting point to identify the supporting
  tasks at their echelon that best support the higher task.
  STEP 2: SELECT SUBORDINATE COLLECTIVE TASKS
  B-5. In this step, leaders identify the tasks at their echelon that best support the higher-level task. These
  tasks and their prioritization are then approved by the next higher echelon leader or commander to ensure
  proper mission nesting (when practicable, leaders select high-payoff tasks that support more than one
  mission- essential-task or battle task). The vignette illustrates the task crosswalk process.
