Which category of response can be deferred; the unit continues to operate as is with no decision required?

• A. Proceed with mission
• B. Continue with operation
• C. Stand by
• D. Fight, Fix later

Answer: (D)

The idea being tested is keeping momentum while delaying non-critical actions. In this mindset you continue to fight or operate now and push fixes or non-urgent tasks to a later time. That’s exactly what “Fight, Fix later” communicates: the unit stays in the fight and maintains operations, with the plan to address the issue later when you have time. No immediate decision is required to keep moving forward, because the priority is to sustain mission activity.

Stand by would imply pausing and waiting for a decision, which breaks continuous operation. Proceed with mission or continue with operation describe moving ahead but don’t inherently indicate deferring fixes, so they don’t convey the explicit deferment concept as clearly.
