Back when Artillery Batteries had their own Fire Direction Control, I was that guy.
If you were a forward observer, or just some guy who encountered the enemy and you needed steal on the target, you would call for Artillery support. Of course you had to authenticate first so that we knew who we were providing support for. Once we knew who you were we were at your disposal, tell us where to put it and we would rearrange the landscape for you.
I was a 13E-10 Fire Direction Control. Back then we did not have GPS or computers to guide us, we used survey maps and slide rules. Our Guns were laid by a survey team, we were give the coordinates of our Guns, we then stuck a Pin in our chart (a map) and we computed our data from there.Once the FO (forward observers) were in place they would radio us with their position coordinates so that we knew who they were and where they were. we would put a circle around them to make sure they were not in the kill box. Now that we know where everyone is we are ready to take on a mission. The radio would come on and we hear our call sign followed by their call sign requesting a fire mission, We simply replied back, " their call sign, this is our call sign, Fire mission over" they would then give us a target grid location, We would call it out to the plotter man he stuck a pin in the map and using the RDP he would call out Range and Deflection, while the plotter is getting his info our radio operator takes the caller through a authentication process, if he authenticated properly we continued the mission. If he is unable to authenticate we try to figure out who he really is.
We would fire 1 round at the coordinates given to us by the observer, he would tell us how far we missed the target we made the adjustment fired one more shot if our observer is good the next think we would hear him say is fire for effect. At that time all 6 of our guns fired 3 rounds as fast as they could, 18 - 99lb bombs headed your way. This would all happen in less than 5 minutes from the time we got the call.AAStats is your home for America's Army Proving Grounds leaderboards and player stats.
