The FAD III entry lists which of the following as the answer?

• A. There is a mission
• B. Mission is classified
• C. Don't have a mission
• D. Mission is indefinite

Answer: (C)

FAD III entries reflect the current tasking status of a unit. The correct reading is that there is no mission assigned at this time. When a unit has no mission, the entry simply notes that there isn’t an active tasking to execute, meaning resources may be kept on standby and ready for direction. If a mission were present, the entry would indicate tasks to perform; if the mission were classified, details would be withheld for security reasons rather than stating there is no mission; if the mission were indefinite, the entry would show an ongoing assignment with an unspecified duration. So, the no-mission status best matches the scenario described by the FAD III entry.
