After you completed your mission and destroyed your target, what do you send to the Fire Direction Center?

• A. Final report
• B. End of Mission
• C. Mission complete
• D. Debriefing note

Answer: (B)

Closing a fire mission requires sending End of Mission to the Fire Direction Center after the target is destroyed. This signal officially marks the engagement as finished, letting the FDC finalize the mission record and prepare for the next task. It’s the standard way to indicate there are no further fires or corrections needed for that mission. Other options aren’t used to close the call-for-fire sequence: a Final report is administrative and typically comes after the mission is complete for records, a Debriefing note is part of after-action review, and “Mission complete” isn’t the established closing phrase in the Call for Fire procedure.
