Army Field Manual 3-24: Counterinsurgency
"This field manual/Marine Corps war-fighting publication establishes doctrine (fundamental principles) for military operations in a counterinsurgency (COIN) environment. It is based on lessons learned from previous counterinsurgencies and contemporary operations. It is also based on existing interim doctrine and doctrine recently developed. Counterinsurgency operations generally have been neglected in broader American military doctrine and national security policies since the end of the Vietnam War over 30 years ago. This manual is designed to reverse that trend. It is also designed to merge traditional approaches to COIN with the realities of a new international arena shaped by technological advances, globalization, and the spread of extremist ideologies-some of them claiming the authority of a religious faith. Doctrine by definition is broad in scope and involves principles, tactics, techniques, and procedures applicable worldwide. Thus, this publication is not focused on any region or country and is not intended to be a standalone reference. Users should assess information from other sources to help them decide how to apply the doctrine in this publication to the specific circumstances facing them."

After-Action Report: The Army Community Service's Response to the Attack on the Pentagon
The events of September 11 presented new challenges for agencies supporting military families around the world. In addition to providing ongoing support services, such as relocation assistance, employment readiness, financial readiness and other prevention services to our soldiers and families, the Army Community Service (ACS) now must support multiple missions and simultaneous operations that are already straining local resources. The terrorist act left everyone in a state of flux while, at the same time, the Army began deploying Soldiers. Homeland security and increased force protection measures at Army bases require innovative strategies on how to deliver services to our families in times of emergencies. The military handling of the response to the attack may be instructive to other organizations. The purpose of this report is to chronicle the Army's response efforts to support family members of victims, capture lessons learned and identify strategies to improve the Army's response in the future.

New Modernization Plan Says Army Will Not Risk Unready Troops
"The Army has compiled for Pentagon leaders a high-level strategy document that spells out how the service will modernize its forces and still fight today?s wars. According to sources and documents, the service has spent some $5 billion to "buy back" operational risk assumed in recent years because resources were so heavily focused on investing in future programs. And, over the next few years, the Army will continue to shift its thinking on where and how it assumes risk -- extracting risk from its current force and trying to balance the scale that once tipped heavily in favor of future troops."

Army Posture Statement 2005
"The 2005 Army Posture Statement provides an overview of todays Army. Focusing on the Soldier, our centerpiece, it provides a perspective on the 21st century security environment. This environment provides the context for reaffirming our overarching Strategic Goal and our enduring Mission. The Posture Statement describes how the Army is executing four overarching, interrelated strategies " centered on people, forces, quality of life and infrastructure " needed to accomplish this Mission. Our initiatives, posture, progress, and requirements are explained within the context of these strategies. Army transformation is described not as an end in itself, but rather in terms of how it is already contributing to accomplishing the Mission today, while preparing the force to accomplish its Strategic Goal " to remain relevant and ready to meet the Combatant Commanders needs " today and tomorrow. A discussion of Risk and an examination of future security challenges are furnished to complete this assessment of our current posture as we continue to serve the Nation today, while preparing for the uncertainties of tomorrow."

Opening the Gate? An Analysis of Military Law Enforcement Authority Over Civilian Lawbreakers On and Off the Federal Installation
"This article examines the authority that military law enforcement officials may exercise over civilian lawbreakers. Specifically, the article seeks to clarify the legal bases for the assertion of military police power over civilians in various contexts-both on and off the federal military installation. The focus is on the exertion of authority at the initiative of military officials, and not at the request of, or in cooperation with, civil authorities. The primary focus of this article is to study the power of military officials to conduct warrantless arrests of civilians. The decision to arrest is a critical stage in the assertion of police authority, and is perhaps the most intrusive of all governmental powers."

Restriction Upon Use of the Army Imposed by the Posse Comitatus Act
This document argues that the various interpretations the Posse Comitatus Act has received suggest that the act is so vague and indefinite that, as a criminal statute, it might be unconstitutional. "Merely reading the statute serves to indicate some of the issues with which this thesis is concerned. What constitutes a 'part of the Army or the Air Force'? Is it the individuals, the organizations, the reserve components, only the regulars? Why are naval forces omitted? To whom does 'whoever' apply? How broad is the term 'or otherwise' and what does it mean to 'execute the laws'? Purportedly, the statute does not apply in Alaska but what is the impact of Alaskan statehood? Does it apply in Hawaii or the overseas commands? What are the exceptions 'expressly authorized by the Constitution or Act of Congress'? Finally, can the requirement that the constitutional and statutory exceptions be express limit the power of the President in fulfilling his duties to 'take care that the Laws be faithfully executed'?"

Weapon Systems: United States Army 1996
"The Army continues to evolve, parlaying fewer resources into an improved capability to respond to contemporary and future threats to national and international security. Force XXI is the term used to describe how the United States Army of the 21st century will prevail both in total war, and in low intensity conflict, anywhere in the world. Force XXI will be well equipped for its growing leadership role outside of direct armed confrontation, including peace keeping, counter terrorism, counter proliferation, and disaster relief. Adapting to force reduction, the Army is using is using cutting edge technology as a strength multiplier. Force XXI's decisive materiel advantage on the battlefield will be derived from the combined effectiveness of weapons, information, and communication systems. These systems will be integrated through a C4I structure that will maximize flexibility, response, lethality, and reaction speed, while minimizing collateral damage and civilian casualties. The weapons systems the Army is choosing to develop are critical to the realization of Force XXI. This book outlines the Army's major weapons systems and provides the context for understanding where each system fits in the integrated approach for Force XXI."

Army Field Manual 3-34.119: Improvised Explosive Device Defeat (September 2005)
"Attacks from improvised explosive devices (IEDs) are one of the major causes of Soldiers and Marines being killed in action (KIA) and wounded in action (WIA). The construct of IED defeat operations supports the National Security Strategy to defeat terrorism and prevent attacks against the United States (U.S.) and coalition forces. It also supports Joint Vision 2020 and the Army Campaign Plan. A key component is the implementation of an integrated IED strategy to counter IED threats and support the Global War on Terrorism. Attaining this goal requires the steady infusion of integrated doctrine, organization, training, materiel, leadership, personnel, and facilities (DOTMLPF) solutions to counter IED threats to meet the Army's requirements. The IED threat and the protection of our Soldiers and Marines are an extremely important mission. Until recently, there was no single proponent designated to coordinate DOTMLPF solutions for these types of explosive hazards impacting our freedom of maneuver. In August 2004, the Department of the Army (DA) assigned the United States Army Training and Doctrine Command (TRADOC) as the Army specified proponent for IED defeat. TRADOC then assigned the Maneuver Support Center (MANSCEN) to conduct a mission analysis and determine resource requirements for implementing an integrated DOTMLPF strategy to counter IED threats. MANSCEN was further tasked to establish an IED Defeat Integrated Capabilities Development Team (ICDT) to develop an integrated DOTMLPF strategy to counter IED threats."

NATO Handbook on the Medical Aspects of NBC Defensive Operations AMedP-6(B)
"The purpose of this handbook is to provide a guide for medical officers on the medical aspects of NBC [Nuclear, Biological, and Chemical] operations. The handbook is intended as a compilation of reference material and as a source of information for training. It does no constitute an official position of NATO nations; certain aspects, however, are already covered by STANAGs and this is being extended. In addition, it provides the basic philosophy for the development of concepts of operations and in the management, including evacuation and treatment, of NBC casualties as well as conventional battle casualties in a NBC environment. There are many unresolved problems and it must be appreciated that a number of the philosophical concepts presented are provisional; their validity will require reassessment in the light of future trials and exercises. The handbook is in three parts, Part I-Nuclear, Part II-Biological, and Part III-Chemical. Each part is self-contained and presented separately. There is some necessary overlap and several aspects are common to all three, for example: combined injuries; the effect of radiation on the response to infection and on the healing of thermal and chemical burns; psychological factors and morale; public health aspects; and medical care in a mass casualty situation. It should be noted that detailed information on the treatment of burns and traumatic injuries is contained in the Emergency War Surgery Handbook covered by STANAG 2068, which should be used in conjunction with this handbook."

Civil Affairs Arts, Monuments, and Archives Guide
"The cultural heritage of a country is its soul, its memory, and its meaning. In the past, plunder has often followed warfare and natural disaster. Archaeological finds are like words of a poem: their meaning and value depend on their physical arrangement and context. When they are removed from their context, they might be pretty, but their original meaning is lost. The loss of information is permanent. Damage to historic monuments, religious buildings, and sacred places such as shrines or cemeteries can occur accidentally when they are in the midst of warfare or disaster. This aid is intended to guide soldiers' decisions and action until heritage professional can be summoned to the scene. Any soldier concerned with or placed in a situation where he/she is responsible for the protection, safeguarding, preservation, restoration, or rehabilitation of and restitution to their rightful owners of damaged or endangered cultural property within areas under military control should use this aid."

STP 10-92M15-SM-TG: Soldier's Manual and Trainer's Guide, MOS 92M - Mortuary Affairs Specialist
"The soldier training publication (STP) identifies the individual military occupational specialty (MOS) training requirements for soldiers holding MOS 92M. Another source of STP task data is the General Dennis J. Reimer Training and Doctrine Digital Library at http://www.adtdl.army.mil/atdls.htm. Commanders, trainers, and soldiers should use the STP to plan, conduct, and evaluate individual training in units. The STP is the primary MOS/AOC reference to support the self-development and training of every soldier in the unit. It is used with the Soldiers Manual of Common Tasks, Army training and evaluation programs (ARTEPs), and FM 7-0, Training the Force, to establish effective training plans and programs that integrate soldier, leader, and collective tasks. This chapter explains how to use the STP in establishing an effective individual training program. It includes doctrinal principles and implications outlined in FM 7-0. Based on these guidelines, commanders and unit trainers must tailor the information to meet the requirements for their specific unit."

1993 Midwest Flood Disaster Assistance Operation
This document identifies key observations made from flood response effort in the Midwest. "A flood has been described as a 'disaster in slow-motion'. This was certainly the case in the Midwestern United States starting in February 1993. Campaigns were fought over 2000 miles of rivers in Kansas, Nebraska, South Dakota, North Dakota, Iowa, Missouri, Minnesota, and Illinois."

Serving a Nation at War: A Campain Quality Army with Joint and Expeditionary Capabilities
"The single most significant component of our new strategic reality is that because of the centrality of the ideas in conflict, this war will be a protracted one. Whereas for most of our lives the default condition has been peace, now our default expectation must be conflict. This new strategic context is the logic for reshaping the Army to be an Army of campaign quality with joint and expeditionary capabilities. The lessons learned in two-and-a-half years of war [in Afghanistan and Iraq] have already propelled a wide series of changes in the Army and across the Joint team. This learning process must not stop. Although this paper outlines the strategic context for the series of changes underway in our Army, its purpose is not to convince you or even to inform you. Its purpose is to cause you to reflect on and think about this new strategic context and what it portends for our future and for the Nation."

Military Working Dogs
"Today's MWD [military working dog] team is a highly deployable capability that commanders have used around the world from Afghanistan to Africa and from the Balkans to Iraq. These specialized teams aid commanders in stability and support operations as well as in warfighting. Being modular and mobile makes these teams very agile. As situations dictate, MWD teams are quick to arrive and able to conduct various operations. Their versatility allows for effective transformation at all echelons among readiness for deployment and operations on the ground, through redeployment and back to readiness...This FM addresses the current capabilities of the Military Police Working Dog Program as well as the potential for future applications. As technology and world situations change, the MWD team will continue the transformation process and give commanders the full-spectrum capabilities needed to be combat multipliers on the battlefield as well as persuasive force protection and antiterrorism assets."
