Which items are listed as part of Information Collection (Annex L)?

• A. OPORD, ICP, IC overlay
• B. 3 shop is responsible
• C. Sync information collection with all functions of collecting
• D. OPORD only

Answer: (A)

Information collection in Annex L centers on documenting how intelligence and related information will be gathered, organized, and used within the operation plan. The best answer reflects the concrete elements that implement and visualize that plan: the operation order itself sets the framework and requirements for information tasks; the Intelligence Collection Point designates where collection activities are coordinated on the ground; and the IC overlay provides a map view of collection priorities, sensors, and coverage to synchronize efforts across units. The other options don’t fit as Annex L components. A statement about responsibility doesn’t define a formal annex item, a general note about aligning collection with all functions is a broad process idea rather than a specific artifact, and OPORD alone omits the essential collection coordination and visualization tools.
