ECCC GE Study Set Questions with
Detailed Verified Answers
Question:GE101: Introduction to General Engineering
Ans: · Purpose of GE Module: Develop officers with ability to plan and
generate General Engineering effects in support of the maneuver commander
during ULO
· Definition of GE: Those engineering capabilities and activities other than
combat engineering that modify, maintain, or protect the physical
environment.
Question: · GE is utilized in support of:
Ans: o Defense- Continuously conducted to harden and prepare positions,
facilities, installations
o Offense- Providing assured mobility of forces from ports of debarkation to
forward AOs
o Stability- Focus is likely GE capabilities applied to restore essential services
and support infrastructure development
Question: Geospatial

Ans: supports vertical and horizontal construction
Question: GE104: Engineer Reconnaissance
Ans: · Engineer Reconnaissance Is NOT a FORM of reconnaissance. The forms
are route, zone, area, reconnaissance in force, and special.
· USACE Contingency Elements (UCE): Forward Support Team Advance
(FEST-A), Reconnaissance Team (RT), Advanced Echelon (ADVON) Team,
Contingency Engineer District (CED).
· Technical Reconnaissance vs. Tactical Reconnaissance
