Da Form 2203 PDF Details

The DA Form 2203, known as the Demolition Reconnaissance Record, plays a crucial role within military operations requiring detailed planning and execution of demolition tasks. Endorsed by TRADOC, the form encompasses all aspects of reconnaissance for demolition, organizing vital data into sections that cover general information, estimates of required manpower, materials, and equipment, as well as sketches and additional comments to ensure clarity and precision in demolition operations. It serves as a comprehensive record, capturing elements such as the date and time of reconnaissance, target description, nature of proposed demolition, unusual site features, and specific requirements for material, personnel, and equipment. Beyond the mere cataloging of logistical needs, the form also prompts for sketches to illustrate general descriptions and proposed demolition methods, ensuring a nuanced understanding of the situation at hand. This layered approach allows for a thorough assessment of the proposed operation, providing a robust framework for preparing, executing, and evaluating demolition missions efficiently and effectively.

Block 8 (TARGET AND LOCATION). Enter a brief description of the target and the distance and direction from an identifiable landmark (railroad bridge, crossroads, hilltop, and so forth). For example, "Target is 275°, 300 meters from the railroad bridge, 2 miles east of Hanesville, on Route 2." Continue the information in block 19 if needed.

Block 9 (TIME OBSERVED). Enter the time you last saw the target as you departed the site.

Block 10 (COORDINATES). Enter the complete 8-digit map coordinates of the target.

Block 11 (GENERAL DESCRIPTION). When applicable, include the type of construction, width of the roadway, number of lanes or tracks, type of pavement, number of spans, condition of spans or entire bridge, and bridge categorization and classification. For example, "Prestressed-concrete T beam bridge, four simple spans supported by six concrete columns, two lanes; total bridge length is 140 feet; roadway width is 30 feet; overall bridge width is 36 feet; height is 16 feet; Class 80; very good condition."

Block 12 (NATURE OF PROPOSED DEMOLITION). State the expected amount of destruction and the priority for placing charges, if feasible. Provide a sketch showing the number and type of charges to use (tamped or untamped), where the charges should be placed, and the type of firing system required.

Block 13 (UNUSUAL FEATURES OF SITE). Include any special features of the target or site that might affect the method of demolition (high-tension lines, radar installation, underwater blasting, and so forth). Give any details that may affect the security of the target and the demolition work party.

Block 14 (MATERIAL REQUIRED). Indicate the mission types, quantities, caps, detonators, and so forth proposed for the demolition.

Block 15 (EQUIPMENT AND TRANSPORT REQUIRED). Specify the amount and type of transportation required (for example, two 5-ton dump trucks, one ram set with 50 cartridges, two post-hole diggers, two demolition sets, 10 pounds of 16d nails, twelve 8-foot 2 by 4s). Continue comments in block 15 on page

2 of the form.

Block 16 (PERSONNEL AND TIME REQUIRED FOR). Complete subsections a and b, indicating the number of personnel and amount of time necessary for placing the demolitions. The distance between the firing points and firing systems will be a consideration for determining the amount of time necessary to arm and fire the explosives.

Block 17 (TIME, LABOR, AND EQUIPMENT REQUIRED FOR BYPASS [Enter the location and method]). Enter the equipment necessary to clear the site after demolition and the available bypasses that allow units to bypass the site. Continue comments in block 17 on page 2 of the form.

Block 18 (REMARKS). Include any appropriate remarks that are not covered in blocks 1 through 17. Continue remarks in block 18 on page 2 of the form. Block 19 (ADDITIONAL COMMENTS). Use this block as a continuation for all other blocks. Identify the block being continued.

Block 20 (GENERAL DESCRIPTION SKETCH). Include on this sketch--

The avenues of approach to the target and possible bypasses in the vicinity of the target. Indicate route numbers and the direction to cities. The rivers or streams including name, direction of flow, and velocity in meters per second.

The terrain features, including observation points, cover and concealment, swampy areas, deep valleys, and so forth.

A compass arrow indicating north (indicate grid or magnetic).

The dimensions of the proposed target.

The number and length of bridge spans.

The height of the bridge from the ground or water.

Block 21 (PURPOSE OF PROPOSED DEMOLITION SKETCH). Include on this sketch the--

Dimensions of members to be cut.

Placement of charges.

Charge calculations. Use either the formula or table method, but show the work.

Priming of charges.

Branch lines.

Ring mains.

Firing systems.

Firing points.

1. When filling out the V1, ensure to include all of the necessary fields in their associated form section. It will help expedite the process, allowing your information to be processed without delay and correctly.

M11 completion process outlined (portion 1)

2. Once your current task is complete, take the next step – fill out all of these fields - MATERIAL REQUIRED, Modernized Demolition Initiators, ISSUE, CRATERING, CUTTING, OTHERSPEC PURPOSE, EQUIPMENT AND TRANSPORT REQUIRED, M Shock tube, M Shock tube, M Shock tube, M Delay fuse, Firing Device, Electric caps, Detonating cord, and Firing wire with their corresponding information. Make sure to double check that everything has been entered correctly before continuing!

Ways to prepare M11 step 2

It is possible to make a mistake while filling out the CRATERING, so make sure you take another look prior to deciding to send it in.

3. In this stage, examine Cratering, Crater charge lb, Shape charge lb, Other Demolitions, DA FORM MAY, PREVIOUS EDITIONS ARE OBSOLETE, and Page of APD LC v. All these need to be completed with highest focus on detail.

Part # 3 in completing M11

4. Filling out EQUIPMENT AND TRANSPORT REQUIRED, TIME LABOR AND EQUIPMENT REQUIRED, and REMARKS Continued is crucial in this next section - make certain that you take the time and fill in every single blank area!
