Post; nato symbol


wondering if there is a nato symbol that defines a ground recce squad. Ground recce is a recce squad with offensive capabilities.

And I cant remember the english word for an OP... the nato symbol is a triangle with a diagonal line.

I think the English word for OP is ............. (*silence*)........... OP

I'm not quite sure what unit you are looking for, you can write it in Norwegian, and I'll try to find it.

But I believe the one you are talking about may be Armored Cavalry.. (?)

Damn... having a bad day...
The symbol for an an op is a triangle
artillery op is a triangle with a dot inside (no need telling redleg this )
This is a truangle (op), but with a diagonal line inside.
Thats what Im looking for.

And now some norwegan:
Fra i år skal alle i jegerbn være grund recce lag.
De skal utdannes spesielt for utenlandstjeneste.

Vanskelig å forklare

Ahh, I see...

I think the correct NATO symbol to use for that unit would be the one for motorized reconnaissance
or the normal/basic reconnaissance symbol

Motorized would probably be the most correct one, since you wïll use jeeps and other terrain vehicles.

Maybe I should draw one for ya

I know about the triangle symbol..

The "basic" one is for any OP, but the one with a diagonal line in it is used for "jeger"/reconnaissance OPs.
