INTRODUCTION
This presentation contains several thousand tactical symbols and graphics as a
“cut and paste” resource for briefers preparing PowerPoint slides.
For full color graphics go here: For B&W go here

A work sheet near the end of this brief provides space to cut & paste the basic
unit and match it up with the unit size indicators and other modifiers.

This brief is updated as required. The most recent version of this brief is posted
for download on the Introduction page of Wargaming Division’s website:
http://www.wargaming.quantico.usmc.mil/intro.asp. The file is on the lower part
of the website page, you must scroll down to get to it.

Corrections, suggestions, additions, improvements are welcome, please


contact Bill Simpson, William.L.Simpson@usmc.mil if you have any graphics or
ideas.

Comments
This presentation contains PowerPoint representations of virtually all the graphics in FM 101-5-1 /
MCRP-5-12A Operational Terms and Graphics dated 30 Sept 1997. The sections represented are:
Chapter 4 Unit Symbols
Chapter 5 Equipment Symbols
Appendix A Friendly Unit and Equipment Symbols
Appendix B Enemy Unit and Equipment Symbols
Appendix C Military Decision-making Process and Tactical Mission Graphics
Appendix D Stability and Support Operations Symbols (MOOTW)

•Selected graphics from MIL-STD-2525B provide full color graphics for all the common tactical
symbols. The color and shapes of these graphics define the symbols’ affiliation as “unknown”,
“friendly”, “neutral” and “hostile”. Most importantly 2525B includes representations of important
buildings and facilities in the Installations / Structures sections which are not covered in FM101-5-1.
These would be valuable in Urban Combat and SASO briefs.

A full color set of MOOTW or SASO, CS, CSS, Maritime and Air symbols are also included in the
2525B Section. Many of these symbols are not in FM 101-5-1.

•The USMC Organization Charts are derived from MCRP 5-12A, FMFRP 2-12, The XMEB Planners
Ref Manual, a 1st MEB brief and the 2nd MEB website

•Scratch sheets of graphic elements used in building these symbols are at the end of the
presentation.

•NATO symbology was not included since only a few symbols were different from those presented

•This brief is quite large at 14 MEGS / 195 pages, therefore it WILL open, close and change
modes slowly.

Graphics fitting inside the unit shapes should be


sized to fit inside either the “neutral” square or the
“hostile” diamond since those are the smallest
shapes.
To create smooth graphics, the objects are created
10 times or 1000% larger than desired, then shrunk
Using the size function in the “format autoshape”
window. The format window is reached by right
clicking the object.
