Field Manual FM 3-57 (FM 3-05. 40) Civil Affairs Operations Including Change 1 28 January 2014 by Us Army, United States Government Pdf

Field Manual (FM) 3-57, Civil Affairs Operations, provides Army commanders with the information necessary for the integration of Civil Affairs (CA) capability in support of unified land operations. It provides the doctrinal basis for the conduct of operations in support of the joint force commander's (JFC's) civil-military operations (CMO) concept. FM 3-57 clarifies the role of CA forces in support of CMO with regard to the missions, employment, support requirements, capabilities, and limitations of these forces. CA forces support missions in every theater, in peace and war, throughout unified land operations. CA forces are a combat multiplier for every commander. CA forces are one of the primary resources a commander has to assist him in dealing with the complex and ever- changing civil component of the operational environment. CA forces are trained, organized, and equipped to plan, execute, and assess the JFC's concept for CMO. They are essential elements in the support of the commander by virtue of their area and linguistic orientation, cultural awareness, training in military to host nation (HN) advisory activities, and civilian professional skills that parallel common government functions. The principal audience for FM 3-57 is the leadership of the Army, officers and senior noncommissioned officers who command Army forces or serve on the staffs that support those commanders of operations at all levels of war. It is also an applicable reference to the civilian leadership of the United States (U.S.) interagency organizations. Although written primarily to assist the Army Service component command (ASCC), Army corps, Army divisions, brigade combat teams (BCTs), and maneuver enhancement brigades (MEBs) with the integration of Civil Affairs operations (CAO) in planning, preparing for, executing, and assessing unified land operations, this FM is applicable for joint force operations as well. The commander must always consider the engagement of the civil component within the area of operations (AO). Commanders, staffs, and subordinates ensure their decisions and actions comply with applicable U.S., international, and in some cases, HN laws and regulations. Commanders at all levels ensure their Soldiers operate in accordance with the law of war and the rules of engagement (See FM 27-10). FM 3-57 uses joint terms, where applicable. Selected joint and Army terms and definitions appear in both the glossary and the text. Terms for which FM 3-57 is the proponent publication (the authority) are marked with an asterisk (*) in the glossary. Definitions for which FM 3-57 is the proponent publication are boldface in the text. These terms and their definitions will be in the next revision of FM 1-02. For other definitions shown in the text, the term is italicized and the number of the proponent publication follows the definition. FM 3-57 applies to the Active Army, Army National Guard/Army National Guard of the United States, and United States Army Reserve unless otherwise stated. The proponent of FM 3-57 is the United States Army John F. Kennedy Special Warfare Center and School (USAJFKSWCS).

Field Manual Fm 3-81 Maneuver Enhancement Brigade April 2014 by United States Government Us Army Pdf

This manual, Field Manual FM 3-81 Maneuver Enhancement Brigade April 2014, provides the maneuver enhancement brigade (MEB) doctrine. The manual is linked to joint and Army doctrine to ensure that it is useful to joint and Army commanders and staffs. To comprehend the doctrine contained in this manual, readers must first understand the nature of unified land operations as described in ADP 3-0 and ADRP 3-0. In addition, readers must fully understand the fundamentals of the operations process that is contained in ADP 5-0 and ADRP 5-0, the principles of mission command that are described in ADP 6-0 and ADRP 6-0, the stability tasks that are discussed in ADP 3-07 and ADRP 3-07, the execution of defense support of civil authorities (DSCA) that is discussed in ADP 3-28 and ADRP 3-28, the tactics that are contained ADRP 3-90, and the protection tasks that are discussed in ADP 3-37 and ADRP 3-37. The principal audience for FM 3-81 is commanders and staff elements at all echelons and MEB units that are primarily tasked with conducting support area operations and maneuver support operations. Trainers and educators throughout the Army will also use this manual. The other intended audience for this manual is leaders and staff sections within units that will employ a MEB or may operate under the mission command of the MEB. This manual should also be used to guide joint, interagency, and multinational higher headquarters commanders and staff on MEB employment. This FM provides doctrine for the tactical MEB employment and operations. It provides the MEB with a unity of effort and a common philosophy, language, and purpose. As one of the multifunctional support brigades of the Army, the MEB is designed to support division operations (also echelons above division [EAD] operations within Army, joint, and multinational structures) and to respond to state or federal authorities as a part of DSCA. The MEB is a mission command headquarters with a robust multifunctional brigade staff that is optimized to conduct support area operations and maneuver support operations. This manual discusses how MEBs enable commanders to achieve their objectives in support of unified land operations through the unique capabilities of the MEB to conduct support area operations and maneuver support operations within the joint security area and Army division and corps support areas. A MEB is a combined arms organization that is task-organized based on mission requirements. The MEB is not a maneuver brigade, although it can be assigned an area of operations (AO) and control terrain. MEBs provide capabilities to enhance the freedom of mobility for operational and tactical commanders. The manual also addresses the broad capability of the MEB to support the similar tasks of stability and DSCA. FM 3-81 describes how MEB commanders, staffs, and subordinate leaders plan, prepare, execute, and assess MEB operations in support of Army forces that are conducting unified land operations within the framework of joint operations. It removes the MEB primary task of conducting consequence management and moves discussion under MEB capabilities to support stability and DSCA tasks. It increases the emphasis on the MEB to conduct support area operations while supporting decisive action-offensive, defensive, stability, or DSCA tasks. The MEB doctrine that is provided in this manual, together with related chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN); engineer; and military police doctrine will support the actions and decisions of commanders at all levels. This manual is not meant to be a substitute for thought and initiative among MEB leaders and Soldiers. No matter how robust the doctrine or how advanced the MEB capabilities and systems, it is the MEB units and Soldiers who must understand the operational environment, recognize shortfalls, and use their professional judgment to adapt to the situation on the ground.

...But If a Zombie Apocalypse Did Occur by Amy L. Thompson,Antonio S. Thompson Pdf

Part pop culture trope, part hypothetical cataclysm, the zombie apocalypse is rooted in modern literature, film and mythology.

The contributors discuss the zombie apocalypse as a metaphor for actual catastrophes and estimate the probabilities of human survival and behavior during an undead invasion.

Theater Sustainment Command (FM 4-94) by Department of the Army Pdf

The Army has undergone a dramatic transformation over the last five years. It has become a modular “brigade-based” Army that is more responsive to combatant commander's needs. It better employs joint capabilities, facilitates force packaging and rapid deployment, and fights as self-contained units in non-linear, non-contiguous operations. Evolving from a rigid, multiecheloned formation to a more flexible, centralized structure that eliminates redundancy and streamlines support by removing unnecessary layers while remaining responsive to the needs of a joint and expeditionary Army. This publication provides fundamental guidance for the employment of the theater sustainment command (TSC) and expeditionary sustainment command (ESC) to command and control Army deployment and sustainment operations conducted in support of joint and multinational operations across the spectrum of conflict. Field Manual (FM) 4-94, “Theater Sustainment Command,” establishes Army doctrine for operational-level deployment and sustainment by providing overarching doctrinal direction for Army operations conducted in support of full spectrum operations detailed in other Army manuals. This edition of FM 4-94, the first revision since 2003, describes the TSC and how it relates to the combatant command as part of the modular Army. This manual will fill an immediate need, providing commanders and their staff with the doctrinal tools to succeed. In its current form, this manual provides the intellectual underpinnings that lie at the core of how a TSC and its subordinates operate. It gives an understanding of the modular logistics structure and how to apply effective command and control. By reading this FM, commanders and their staffs will be familiar with the TSC mission, organization, roles and key tasks to perform.
