4.2.1. Identification of Tasking. The wing/group SIO will ensure that intelligence personnel are capable of extracting tasking data from the appropriate order document (Air Tasking Order, Air Coordinating Order or Integrated Tasking Order) or other tasking that initiates the mission process and sets in motion the dynamic support processes at the unit level.
4.2.2. The Mission Planning Cell (MPC). The wing/group SIO will ensure intelligence personnel are trained and available to support MPC during employment. These personnel will participate IAW local directives in developing mission profiles and supplying material and information to execute missions and satisfy tasking orders.

4.3. Briefing Support. The SIO will ensure that intelligence briefings in support of mission objectives incorporate up-to-date intelligence tailored to the audience (commanders, operators, or other base agencies).

4.4. Debriefing and Reporting. Intelligence personnel will debrief all missions as soon as possible after mission completion.
4.4.1. Aircrews will report perishable, critical information of intelligence value in an inflight report, if possible.
4.4.1.1. Wing/group procedures will include preparation for each debriefing prior to the operators' return to base including pre-entering mission information and inflight report data on appropriate forms.

4.5.1. Code of Conduct Continuation Training. All aircrew members will be trained on the Code of Conduct as an integral part of survival, evasion, resistance, escape and recovery principles and techniques IAW AFI 36-2209 and DOD Directive 1300.7.
4.5.2. ISOPREPs. Every person subject to flight/participation in an employment mission must have a current, accurate, ISOPREP card on file. During readiness, ISOPREPs will be reviewed at least semi-annually. During operations, personnel will review ISOPREPs prior to their first mission of the day and as often as necessary thereafter to maintain knowledge of its content.
4.5.2.1. When deploying to support contingencies, ISOPREPs will be forwarded to the supporting intelligence function, if known. Otherwise, the gaining organization will request the ISOPREP from the losing unit.

4.5.3.2. EPA Review. An operator or crew participating in multiple missions within a 24-hour period need not reaccomplish an EPA if the employment area is the same and the crew or person considers the former EPA valid. A new EPA is required if the objective area changes and a valid EPA is not on file.
4.5.4. E&R materials. Unit intelligence personnel will ensure sufficient quantities of applicable evasion aids are available. These items will be combined into an evasion kit and positive control procedures will be established. Evasion charts are mandatory evasion kit items. All others are optional, but could include blood chits, pointee talkees, infrared lights, infrared reflective tape, barter items and button compass. Replica E&R kits will be developed for exercises.

4.6. Automated Intelligence Systems. Intelligence personnel must use all available systems necessary to accomplish mission tasking (e.g., Combat Intelligence System) and ensure basic operator maintenance, accountability and database management. These systems must be previously accredited for the highest classification of the information to be processed.

4.7. Cross Servicing. During employment, some aircraft will recover from missions at other than home station. Host units will ensure that all aircraft recovering at their base receive intelligence support. Upon request, the SIO will designate intelligence personnel who will support the crew. Host unit intelligence will debrief the aircrews and submit the appropriate reports with a copy to the parent unit. If the crew is retasked, intelligence will provide a mission threat briefing and assist them with mission planning, if requested.
