What does the Movement Program preplan?

• A. Transportation requirements for units, personnel, materiel, sustainment
• B. Security procedures for convoys
• C. Medical evacuation timelines
• D. Equipment maintenance schedules

Answer: (A)

Movement Program focuses on determining transportation needs to move the force. It preplans what needs to be moved—units, personnel, materiel, and sustainment—the amount of lift required, the modes (air, ground, sea), routes, staging points, and timing so movement supports the operation smoothly. This planning ensures the right assets are available at the right time and place to sustain operations. The other options cover activities outside this planning scope: convoy security procedures deal with protection during movement, medical evacuation timelines belong to casualty evacuation planning, and equipment maintenance schedules belong to maintenance planning.
