What does SITREP mean in Scrabble?
noun
informal
A short report that sums up the current state of an operation, especially a military or emergency one.
The word is a clipped form of situation report, and it comes from military staff writing, where commanders needed a quick picture of where units stood. A sitrep is usually brief and factual, listing what has happened, what is expected next and what help is needed. Emergency services and project teams have borrowed the term for their own status updates.
