Describein as much detail any and all information pertaining to the capturing force.This information will be used to profile the captors when formulating liberation/rescueforces. Do not use the Duress Word unless forced to transmit deceptive information.Once the Duress Word is used, all information will be suspect to rescue forces.Signaling procedures.a. Day signaling equipment: mirror and smoke. Flash all friendly A/C with mirroronly when signaled to do so. Respond to an exaggerated wing rock by ceasingmirror flashes. Pop up smoke when you are requested to do so.b. Night signaling equipment. Prepare your InfraRed (IR) strobe/firefly. Do not activate(crack it) the chemlite unless signaled to do so. Pencil flares should be used alast resort only as they will highlight your position.Extended evasion. If an immediate recovery is impossible or unsuccessful, it maytake up to hrs to execute a pre-planned CSAR mission. In this case do notmove unless directed to or unless absolutely necessary. If you are unable to establishcontact with rescue forces within hours, execute your long-term EPA. Forcommunication to air/space platforms display as GTAS, approximatelyfifteen feet long using natural or man-made materials, visible from the air. The of the vertical line of the will indicate direction of travel and/orhole-up site. Give more details only when they deviate from standard procedures (e.g.Once the GTAS has been constructed, use a signal mirror to attract attention of friendlyaircraft to the location during the day. At night use an infrared (IR) strobe or fireflyanytime friendly aircraft are overhead. Do not use any hand held visual signaling devicesuntil any approaching forces have been positively identified as friendly. DO NOT holeup near the GTAS and move far enough away to ensure security of the hole-up site whilemaintaining line-of-sight with the GTAS.Radio Authentication procedure.Detail the applicable procedures here.a. Any time a downed aircrew recognises a friendly aircraft overhead, the survivorshould monitor primary PR A/B frequency and be prepare to authenticate.b. Initially, RESCAP / RMC / OSC or helicopter rescue forces will use PR Word from thedate of the isolating event (or from the EPA for ground teams / isolated personnel)to properly authenticate the survivor. PR Word authentication will use only ONEletter at a time. The same rules apply to PR Number which is reserved for RescueGround Teams. You should avoid asking the whole number and instead use onedigit at a time or use mathematic techniques (add, subtract, multiply) between twodigits of the number.c. The PR letter will be coded in the first message of the Personal Locator Beacon (PLB)for databurst message or used as a near recognition signal for assisted recovery.d. Extended evasion episodes will use ISOPREP information as a definitive or finalsurvivor / team / isolated personnel authentication.NATO UNCLASSIFIED RELEASABLE TO THE PUBLIC
