What is the book reference for call for fire?

• A. ATP 3-09.30 (6-30)
• B. ATP 3-09.50
• C. FM 3-09
• D. ATP 3-09.20

Answer: (A)

Call for fire procedures are standardized in a specific Army Techniques Publication that tells you exactly how a forward observer requests indirect fire and formats the fire mission. This is published as ATP 3-09.30, with the edition marker (6-30) indicating the version used for reference. That publication is the official source for the call-for-fire format, the required data elements, and the step-by-step process for initiating, adjusting, and delivering a fire mission. Other references either cover different topics or are older/superseded manuals, so they don’t serve as the standard reference for call for fire.
