70% to passYou are proceeding under NCS (Naval Control of Shipping) and wish to send a message concerning an initial enemy contact. Which precedence would you assign this message?
A
R (ROUTINE)
B
P (PRIORITY)
C
O (IMMEDIATE)
D
Z (FLASH)
AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) Z (FLASH). When proceeding under Naval Control of Shipping (NCS) and encountering an initial enemy contact, the message concerning this contact should be assigned the highest precedence, which is FLASH (Z). This is because FLASH is reserved for initial enemy contact reports and other extremely time-sensitive information that requires immediate action. The other options, such as ROUTINE (R), PRIORITY (P), and IMMEDIATE (O), do not convey the urgency and importance of an initial enemy contact report, which requires the fastest possible delivery to enable a timely response.
