Book excerpt: Army Techniques Publication ATP 3-34.81 MCWP 3-17.4 Engineer Reconnaissance MARCH 2016 United States Government US Army provides techniques for the performance of tactical and technical engineer reconnaissance in support of military activities that are conducted across the full range of military operations. This publication supports doctrine found in ADP 3-0, FM 3-34, ADRP 5-0, and ADRP 6-0. This publication supersedes FM 3-34.170/MCWP 3-17.4. The engineer contribution to operational success is highly desired by the commander. Demands for engineer reconnaissance support will often exceed capabilities. These capabilities are spread thin, and they compete with the commander's needs for other engineer applications. The same engineer elements and capabilities are often required for each of these areas. Resolution of these competing priorities is one of the goals of the planning process. The staff-running estimate is created during mission analysis, and the engineer staff planner identifies the specified and implied engineer tasks (more than M/CM/S) and their associated purposes

This book was released on 2016-11-14 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ATP 3-34.81 provides techniques for the performance of tactical and technical engineer reconnaissance in support of military activities that are conducted across the full range of military operations. This publication supports doctrine found in ADP 3-0, FM 3-34, ADRP 5-0, and ADRP 6-0. Although primarily oriented on the brigade combat team (BCT)/regimental combat team (RCT) based Marine air-ground task force (MAGTF) and below, the principal audience for ATP 3-34.81 is all members of the profession of arms. Commanders and staffs of Army and Marine Corps headquarters serving as joint task force or multinational headquarters should also refer to applicable joint or multinational doctrine concerning the range of military operations and joint or multinational forces. Trainers and educators throughout the Army and Marine Corps will also use this publication. The three engineer disciplines are combat (with the capabilities and activities of mobility, countermobility, and survivability [M/CM/S]), general, and geospatial engineering. These disciplines include significant reconnaissance capabilities. The three engineer disciplines include extensive discussion on integrating the planning for, and conduct of, engineer reconnaissance support within the tactical operations of the combined arms team. This publication discusses the capability resident within combat engineer units to form and employ engineer reconnaissance teams (ERTs). It also describes the capability resident within general engineer elements to form and employ ERTs, augment combat engineer ERTs, or provide assessment and survey teams. Finally, geospatial engineering enables reconnaissance and may play a large role, especially during the planning process. Engineer reconnaissance, like chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) and other technical applications, is not a form of reconnaissance. Engineer reconnaissance is a focused application of special or unique capabilities supporting reconnaissance, and it is applicable to all forms of reconnaissance. The engineer disciplines provide reconnaissance capabilities that vary in linkages to warfighting functions, degrees of technical expertise, and effort applied to the assigned mission and tasks. Engineer reconnaissance is directly linked to geospatial intelligence because combat and general engineer units use technical measuring or survey devices to confirm, correct, or update the accuracy of available geospatial information. After analysis and comparison against other intelligence collections, this updated geospatial information becomes intelligence, which feeds the commander's decisionmaking process. Finally, this publication is written with the acknowledgement that the operational environment is more variable now. Engineers must be prepared to go into any operational environment and perform a full range of reconnaissance tasks in support of the maneuver commander while dealing with a wide range of threats and other influences. It builds on the collective knowledge and experience gained through nearly a dozen years of sustained military operations and exercises. It is rooted in time-tested principles and fundamentals, while accommodating new technologies and diverse threats to national security. This publication consists of five chapters and six appendixes that discuss the integration of engineer reconnaissance within the operational planning, execution, and assessment process that is presented in ADRP 5-0, ADRP 6-0, and MCWP 5-1.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Doctrine provides a military organization with unity of effort and a common philosophy, language, and purpose. This field manual provides doctrine for the application of engineer reconnaissance capabilities in support of the combined arms team conducting full spectrum operations. Engineer reconnaissance, like chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) and other technical applications, is not a form of reconnaissance (see chapter 3 for a discussion of the four forms of reconnaissance). Engineer reconnaissance is instead a focused application of special/unique capabilities supporting reconnaissance operations and is applicable over/pertinent to all four forms of reconnaissance. Field manual (FM) 3-34.170/Marine Corps Warfighting Publication (MCWP) 3-17.4 updates the FM that provides doctrinal guidance for engineer reconnaissance in support of full spectrum operations, including engineer reconnaissance in support of tactical operations as well as engineer technical reconnaissance support. This manual supersedes FM 5-170 and supports the doctrine found in FM 3-0, FM 3-34, and FM 6-0, and Field Manual Interim (FMI) 5-0.1. This manual will serve as a reference document for engineer commanders and staff, leaders, training developers, and doctrine developers throughout the Army and Marine Corps. It will also provide guidance to commanders for the employment of engineer reconnaissance capabilities in support of all operations. It is also the primary reference for engineer reconnaissance for Joint Publication (JP) 3-34. The target audience for this manual is focused at the brigade and below maneuver commander and supporting staff. This also includes nonorganic unit commanders and staffs that will support brigade and below maneuver organizations. Additionally, it is pertinent to other commanders and staffs at all echelons. This doctrine will assist branch schools in teaching the integration of engineer capabilities. Engineer involvement is a virtual certainty for nearly every military operation. FM 3-34.170 is intended to inform all Service components of the types of engineer reconnaissance tasks and the variety of capabilities available to perform them.

This book was released on 2017-07-08 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This manual provides engineer doctrine for operating at the BCT level and below and within the framework of unified land operations. The engineer support doctrine for the BCT is focused on tactical-level maneuvers. The engineer organizations that are organic to the BCT are optimized to perform combat engineering tasks (primarily mobility with limited capabilities in countermobility and survivability). Geospatial engineering support is provided by organic terrain teams. Additional engineering support (combat and general) comes from engineer organizations that are task-organized to the BCT or that provide support from echelons above brigade (EAB) organizations. This manual is aligned with current BCT doctrine and describes engineer support for the armored BCT, infantry BCT, and Stryker BCT. Although the armored cavalry regiment and engineer company are not specifically addressed, the basic principles of this manual also apply to those organizations. This manual also provides greater detail for commanders and staffs at brigade echelons and below to ensure the synchronization of engineer capabilities across the range of military operations. Many of the tactical tasks associated with combat and general engineering support have remained constant although current and proposed future operational environments have dramatically shifted with the emergence of new threats (such as improvised explosive devices [IEDs]) and an increased emphasis on stability operations. Another significant change involves Army reorganization and restructuring of the force and the effects that they have on doctrine and operations. Changes that directly affect this manual include the-Restructure of engineer organizations within each of the three types of BCTs and within the armored cavalry regiment; Likelihood that the operations conducted will be with unified action partners. (The primary focus of joint engineer operations is to achieve the commander's intent by coordinating engineer support throughout the joint area of operations.); Alignment of engineer doctrine that supports BCTs; Consequential changes in the basic Army organizational structure and equipment of engineer organizations.

Book excerpt: This Army and Marine Corps multiservice publication serves as doctrinal reference for the employment of mortar squads, sections, and platoons. It contains guidance on tactics and techniques that mortar units use to execute their part of combat operations described in battalion-, squadron-, troop-, and company-level manuals. This publication also contains guidance on how a mortar unit's fires and displacement are best planned and employed to sustain a commander's intent for fire support. The target audience of this publication includes mortar squad, section, and platoon leaders, company and battalion commanders, battalion staff officers, and all others responsible for controlling and coordinating fire support during combined arms operations. Training developers also use this manual as a source document for combat critical tasks. Combat developers use this manual when refining and revising operational concepts for Infantry and reconnaissance mortar organizations. This publication serves as the primary reference for both resident and nonresident mortar tactical employment instruction. This publication is not intended to be used alone. It is part of a set of doctrinal and training publications that together provide the depth and detail necessary to train and employ mortar units. Users must be familiar with appropriate company- and battalion-level maneuver manuals as well as mortar-related drills and collective tasks. When employing mortars, Army and Marine Corps units use similar tactics and techniques. However, the differences are few at the battalion command level and below. Differences between the services' terms and definitions are more apparent when introducing or discussing general subjects, such as warfighting functions, tactical operations, and unit organizations. Detailed explanations of these differences are beyond the scope of this manual. They are, however, identified where appropriate and different terms are combined when possible. For example, sustainment/logistics is used to identify the Army's sustainment and the Marine Corps' logistic functions. Readers should refer to their own service's manuals for more detailed explanations. Some common Army and Marine Corps terms have slightly different acronyms and, where needed, have been combined. For example, this manual uses FIST/FiST to represent a fire support team when addressing both services. Wherever possible, the use of acronyms has been minimized in this manual. This publication applies to the Active Army, the Army National Guard (ARNG)/Army National Guard of the United States (ARNGUS), United States Army Reserve (USAR), Marine Corps, and Marine Corps Reserve unless otherwise stated. The proponent of this publication is the United States Army Training and Doctrine Command (TRADOC). The preparing agency is the U.S. Army Maneuver Center of Excellence (MCoE).
