ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Air naval gunfire liaison company

An air naval gunfire liaison company (ANGLICO) is like a group of special helpers that work with the military. They help different parts of the military work together better by talking to each other and giving each other information.

The ANGLICO people are like messengers who can help ships and airplanes talk to each other. They help planes and helicopters find the right target to shoot at by telling them where it is on the ground. They also help ships aim their big guns at targets on the shore.

It's kind of like playing a big game of "telephone." One person tells another person something, and then that person tells another person, and so on until everybody knows what's going on. But ANGLICO does it in a special way with special equipment.

Overall, ANGLICO helps different parts of the military work better and make sure they are all working together to complete their mission.
