We can see here that the statement "This is Unit 1, we have a 10-37, Code 2" doesn't fully comply with the NIMS (National Incident Management System) Management Characteristic of common terminology. Thus, it is no.

NIMS emphasizes the use of common terminology to ensure clarity, efficiency, and effective communication during incidents and emergencies. The statement in question uses codes (10-37 and Code 2) that might not be universally understood or recognized across all agencies or jurisdictions. These codes could vary in meaning or interpretation between different organizations or regions, potentially leading to confusion during emergency responses.

The complete question is:

Statement: "This is Unit 1, we have a 10-37, Code 2."

Does this statement comply with the NIMS Management Characteristic of common terminology?
