Abstract: The delivery of information from the highest command level to the execution level has always required the existence of a format that can ensure both the fluidity of information and the same language of communication for all soldiers involved in the process. This format, perfected over time, has provided the standard necessary for the development, transmission and especially understanding of the main documents specific to the planning of operations, and here I have in mind the concept, plan or different types of operation orders.
