Which CASREP type would you use to cancel an existing CASREP?

• A. Initial
• B. Update
• C. Correct
• D. Cancel

Answer: (D)

To cancel a previously sent CASREP you use the Cancel type. This type is specifically designed to withdraw or terminate an existing CASREP, signaling that the reported casualty is no longer active or the initial report was found invalid. When you cancel, you reference the original CASREP identifier and provide a brief reason so all recipients understand the prior entry is no longer current. The other types exist to create a new report (Initial), modify ongoing information (Update), or fix mistakes in an earlier entry (Correct); they don’t withdraw the report.
