What does TGO stand for?

Joint Fires Observer Semiannual Requirements * 6 Live or Simulated Surface-to-Surface Call-For-Fire Events * 6 Fixed- or Rotary-Wing Events --2 Live or Simulated Laser Terminal Guidance Operations (TGO) Events --1 Live Type 2/3 Control with Joint Terminal Attack Controller (JTAC) --1 Live or Simulated Night Target-Marking Event --1 Simulated as Nonqualified JTAC --1 Live or Simulated Abort * 1 Live or Simulated AC-130 Call-For-Fire Event By LtCol G.

The drive for a JFO is grounded on meeting the maneuver commander's needs for a trained service member who can request, adjust and control various surface-to-surface munitions; provide targeting information for the joint terminal attack controller (JTAC) in support of Types 2 and 3 close air support (CAS) when the JTAC cannot see the target or the aircraft at the weapons release point; and perform autonomous terminal guidance operations (TGOs).

The recommendation provides training for forward observers (FOs), reconnaissance Marines and special operations personnel to better prepare them to execute terminal guidance operations (TGOs) as JFOs.
