US Army Field Manual: Veterinary Service - Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures
"This publication outlines the functions and operations of each veterinary element within an area of operations (AO). It provides tactics, techniques, and procedures for veterinary support. The information provided in this publication will assist veterinary commanders and staffs to operate efficiently in the corps and echelons above corps (EAC) arenas. It may be used by medical planners to supplement Field Manual (FM) 4-02, FM 8-42, and FM 8-55. The recently approved Force Design Update and approved table(s) of organization and equipment (TOEs) provide two newly designed veterinary units. The medical detachment, veterinary service (MDVS) has subcomponents that include a headquarters section, a food procurement team, and veterinary service support teams (5). Each of these subcomponents has their own A-Series TOE/ Standard Requirement Code (SRC) as well as their overall unit TOE and SRC. This means that planners can put any of the subcomponents into a Time-Phased Force Deployment List (TPFDL) or an operation that they feel is needed, to include the whole unit if desired. The medical detachment, veterinary medicine (MDVM) was designed to deploy as one unit. This manual also provides doctrine for veterinary units organized under the L-Series TOEs."

Field Manual 100-6: Information Operations
This manual addresses the operational context of information operations (IO), relevant terminology, and the environment of information operations. It supports battle command and provides guidelines for commanders that conduct IO to support all phases of the force-projection operating environment, including
planning and executing early entry and force-projection operations in joint and multinational settings. Military operations occur in peace and war. The traditional focus when discussing information and C2 was electronic warfare (EW), electronic countermeasure (ECM), and electronic counter countermeasure (ECCM) operations that take place during war. The focus of this manual is on command and control warfare (C2 W), public affairs (PA), and civil affairs (CA). All are operations that the Army currently uses to gain and maintain information dominance as well as effective C2. Successful operations require effective C2 to transform military capabilities into applied military power. The more effective the force's C2 system, the more completely its capabilities can be realized in peace or war. As the Army's capstone doctrine for IO, this manual supports soldiers and leaders that execute IO to support military operations. Not only does the doctrine herein provide commanders and their staffs with guidance to conduct information operations, it also serves as the foundation for development of US Army tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTP) manuals. It is also the foundation to refine existing training support packages (TSPs), mission training plans (MTPs), training center and unit exercises, and service school curricula. The manual provides a basis to examine organizations and materiel developments applicable to IO.

Operations in a Low-Intensity Conflict
"The possibility of US troops becoming involved in a low-intensity conflict (LIC) is ever increasing. This manual provides the framework for understanding LIC at the battalion and brigade levels to include the definition and nature of LIC, the military's role, imperatives, and operational categories. It also provides leadership considerations that affect low-intensity operations.
LIC is a politico-military confrontation between contending states or groups. It is below general war and above routine peaceful competition. It often involves protracted struggles of competing principles and ideologies. LIC ranges from subversion to the use of armed force. It is waged by a combination of means, employing political, economical, informational, and military instruments. LICs are often localized, usually in the Third World, but they contain regional and global security implications."

Army Lineage Series: Military Intelligence
This book attempts to present an organizational history of Military Intelligence in the United States Army from its beginnings to the present. "Military Intelligence- the collection of information by commanders on the enemy and the battlefield environment they must confront- has existed since the beginnings of armies and of wars. However, the emergence of professional Military Intelligence organizations and the definition of the functions they most appropriately performed are comparatively recent developments. Until the nineteenth century, Military Intelligence was practiced only in wartime; methods of collection were rudimentary; and the conduct of Military intelligence was considered a function of command, one which any professional officer could perform. Furthermore, commanders tended to be skeptical about the reliability of the information they received from spies, scouts, and their own troops. In his monumental treatise On War, Clausewitz commented only that "many intelligence reports in war are contradictory, even more are false, and most are uncertain."

Intelligence Preparation of the Battlefield
The purpose of this manual is to describe the fundamentals of intelligence
preparation of the battlefield (IPB). It describes IPB, its use in directing the
intelligence effort, and its role in driving the staff's planning for contingency or combat operations. It prescribes the procedures followed in performing IPB and illustrates the application of IPB in various situations.
This manual is intended to serve as a guide for the use of IPB by units of all
types, at all echelons, across the entire spectrum of conflict, and during the
conduct of any mission. It does not contain all the data required to conduct
IPB, such as specific information on threat doctrine or equipment capabilities.
Rather, it is intended as a guide for applying the fundamentals of the IPB
process to any situation. No part of this document should be construed as limiting commanders' freedom of action or committing commanders to a fixed or particular course of action (COA). Nor should it be construed to imply that all IPB products must be prepared by all commands in all situations. Commanders should apply the doctrine and information presented in this manual in any manner appropriate to their particular situation and mission.

Counterintelligence
This field manual (FM) provides guidance to commanders, counterintelligence (CI) agents, and analysts. The first four chapters provide information to the commander and staff while the remainder provides the tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTP) required to aggressively identify, neutralize, and exploit foreign intelligence attempts to conduct operations against the United States (US) Army. CI supports Army operations by providing a clear picture of the threat to commands at all echelons and actions required to protect the force from exploitation by foreign intelligence. CI operations include conducting investigations, offensive and defensive operations, security and vulnerability analysis, and intelligence collection in peace and at all levels of conflict to support command needs. CI supports the total intelligence process by focusing on foreign intelligence collection efforts. CI is designed to provide commanders the enemy intelligence collection situation and targeting information in order to counter foreign intelligence service (FIS) activities. CI is an integral part of the US Army's all-source intelligence capability.

Echelons Above Corps (EAC) Intelligence and Electronic Warfare (IEW) Operations
In the mid-seventies, two events created a void in echelons above corps (EAC) intelligence doctrine and force structure: the transition of Army doctrine from field Army to EAC and the implementation of decisions resulting from the Intelligence Organization and Stationing Study. In 1982, the Army Chief of Staff approved the changes resulting from this document for planning purposes. During this time, US Army Intelligence and Security Command (INSCOM) completed the EAC Intelligence, Security, and Electronic Warfare Architecture Study. This was the base document for EAC intelligence and electronic warfare (IEW) force development. FM 100-16, published in April 1985, incorporated key IEW doctrinal principles. This manual applies those principles to the Military Intelligence (MI) brigades EAC) that support IEW in different theaters. The brigades are the critical parts of the IEW structure established at EAC. The IEW
functions of the MI brigades EAC) forge the links with the EAC staff, the echelons above corps intelligence center EACIC), echelons corps and below (ECB), other MI brigade elements, other services, and national level intelligence agencies. This manual provides the doctrine for EAC IEW operations, including organizations, missions, functions, and capabilities of MI organizations at EAC. This manual further supports Army doctrine described in FM 100-5 and FM 100-20. This manual is not designed nor intended to be a descriptive tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTP) manual. The uniqueness
of the EAC theaters in which the IEW units are located prohibits such a task. The geographical and operational focus of the theaters, along with command and National Command Authorities (NCA) guidance, orients the specific IEW support missions; for example, functional and regional tailoring to best
achieve the assigned mission.

Rear Area and Base Security
This appendix provides basic guidance for commanders and staff officers on the organization of forces, control measures, and planning, preparing, and executing considerations pertaining to rear area and base security and route and convoy security operations. The tactics and techniques expressed
in this appendix are applicable across the full spectrum of operations (offense, defense, stability, and support). However, commanders must interpret them in accordance with the enemy's capabilities. For example, the physical layout of a base will be vastly different if the enemy has a significant air capability than if the enemy has no air capability. The purpose of rear area and base security operations is to prevent interruption of current and future operations. Rear area and base security operations constitute one of the five elements that constitute sustaining operations.

Operations Other Than War (OOTW)
The world today is less volatile than at anytime in the recent past. Then tensions were high and the chance of armed conflict between allied and communist superpowers was a real threat. The dramatic end of the cold war has caused significant changes in the nation's domestic and foreign policies and priorities. During the cold war era, our national attention and military might were focused on the external threat and related issues. The Army is moving from a forward deployed to a force projection strategy. Additionally, there is an acute awareness of the need for increased military involvement in OOTW. FMs 100-19 and 100-23 emphasize the priority being placed on military involvement in noncombat operations. Additional umbrella doctrinal publications are on the horizon. These will embrace nontraditional roles of peacetime operations for the Army.

Field Manual FM 100-19: Domestic Support Operations
Domestic support operations are not new. They had their beginning with settlement of the new world and organization of the colonial militia. With the establishment of the United States and a federal military, the Army routinely provided support to state and territorial governors as the nation expanded westward. In some instances, it actually administered governmental affairs until the fledgling local government became a viable entity. Although the frequency of domestic support operations may increase, they are not in lieu of wartime operational requirements. The Army's primary mission remains to defend the United States and its interests. It is the Army's combat readiness that enables it to accomplish domestic support operations. This manual provides specific guidelines and operational principles in the conduct of domestic support operations. It emphasizes the utilization of the Army's core combat competencies and values to enhance combat readiness and the overall well-being of the nation.

Army Strategic Planning Guidance: 2006-2023
The Army Strategic Planning Guidance (ASPG), as the Army's institutional strategy, represents the Army senior leadership's vision of how the Army will fulfill its mission to provide necessary forces and capabilities to the Combatant Commanders in support of the National Security and Defense Strategies. It also communicates the Army's priorities for employing available resources. An analysis of the strategic environment, national guidance, and operational requirements, makes clear the Army must be prepared for operations of a type, tempo, pace, and duration different from those we have structured our forces and systems to achieve. Some assumptions made and processes developed for a Cold War Army or an Army with a "window of opportunity" to
transform itself, while valid at the time, are no longer relevant to the current security environment.
