Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This FM deals with Army terminal operations in a TO. It contains procedures and techniques to plan, use, and control Army water, motor, rail, and air terminal operations. It explains the transportation doctrine and organizational structures needed to deploy Army terminal operations in a TO. It covers roles, missions, and concepts of employment for terminal operation units. This manual is mainly for unit commanders, key personnel, higher HQ staffs, theater planners, and commanders of operational allied units. Terminals are key nodes in the total distribution system that support the commander's concept of operation at all levels of war and through the range of military operations. They provide loading, unloading, and handling of cargo and personnel between various transportation modes. When linked by modes of transport, they define the transportation structure for the operation. Force projection missions require early identification and establishment of terminals. A well-conceived plan assures that terminals can support the deployment, reception, and onward movement of the force and its sustainment. Crucial to the execution of the operation is the assignment of the right personnel, cargo, and material handling equipment at each terminal. ITV of material moving through the transportation system also provides the CINC with information pertaining to location and final destination of all cargo. The Army is required to function across a range of operation from peacetime through conflict to war (see FM 100-5). Terminal operators must be able to operate in every TO. Terminals will be vulnerable to air and missile attacks, especially if US and allied forces have not established air superiority and sea control. They may also be subject to attacks by unconventional forces and to sabotage, terrorism, mining, espionage, and chemical or biological attacks. Whatever the level of the Army operation, terminals will remain a critical piece to ensure continuous movement of personnel and cargo.

This book was released on 2017-01-03 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication, Army Techniques Publication ATP 4-13 Army Expeditionary Intermodal Operations April 2014, introduces Army expeditionary intermodal operations as a capability and describes the roles, responsibilities, and command relationships for planning, executing, and supporting Army terminal operations in a theater. This publication applies to the range of military operations and supports Army doctrine publication (ADP) 3-0 and ADP 4-0. The principle audience for ATP 4-13 is all members of the profession of arms. Commanders and staffs of Army 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 will also use this manual. ATP 4-13, Army Expeditionary Intermodal Operations replaces FM 55-60, Army Terminal Operations. This manual provides the framework for commanders and their staff at all levels on the employment of Army expeditionary intermodal capability to include aerial/sea port operations. The conversion and update of this manual is in compliance with the Army's Doctrine 2015 initiative, aligns Army terminal operations roles and responsibilities with the current force structure, and incorporate lessons learned from operations and significant events since publishing of FM 55-60. The fundamentals of Army Expeditionary Intermodal Operations and general terminal operation techniques tie together various transportation competencies to enhance deployment, redeployment, and distribution operations for the end-to-end movement of personnel, equipment, or forces. ATP 4-13 uses the theater environment as the focus of organizations, events and activities that are integral to plan and execute terminal operations that enables expeditionary intermodal operations. ATP 4-13 contains six chapters: Chapter 1 discusses intermodal operations and its components, introduces Army expeditionary intermodal operations as a capability. Chapter 2 describes the types of terminals and ports. It discusses planning considerations and organizational roles and responsibilities and port opening. Chapter 3 discusses air terminal operations, port opening and organizations involved in air terminal operations. It further discusses the role of the joint task force-port opening unit and its organizational structure. Included in this chapter are graphics of a notional lay out of an air terminal and organizational structure / chart of units involved in air terminal operations. Chapter 4 discusses water terminal and port operations and the roles and responsibilities of units involved that includes the Transportation Brigade Expeditionary. It further discusses the Rapid port opening element of the joint task force - port opening, other units and organizational structure that supports it. Further the process of transitioning from port operations to port management is discussed. Chapter 5 describes the different types and functions of land terminal operations and the organizations that support them. Specifically, this chapter includes a description of the centralized receiving and shipping point terminal. Chapter 6 discusses logistics over-the-shore operations and units that support it.

This book was released on 2014-12-15 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The mission of the United States Army is to fight and win our nation's wars by providing prompt, sustained land dominance across the full range of military operations and spectrum of conflict in support of combatant commanders. Accomplishing this mission rests on the ability of the Army to equip and move its forces to the battle and sustain them while they are engaged. Logistics provides the backbone for Army combat operations. Without fuel, ammunition, rations, and other supplies, the Army would grind to a halt. The U.S. military must be prepared to fight anywhere on the globe and, in an era of coalition warfare, to logistically support its allies. While aircraft can move large amounts of supplies, the vast majority must be carried on ocean going vessels and unloaded at ports that may be at a great distance from the battlefield. As the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq have shown, the costs of convoying vast quantities of supplies is tallied not only in economic terms but also in terms of lives lost in the movement of the materiel. As the ability of potential enemies to interdict movement to the battlefield and interdict movements in the battlespace increases, the challenge of logistics grows even larger. No matter how the nature of battle develops, logistics will remain a key factor. Force Multiplying Technologies for Logistics Support to Military Operations explores Army logistics in a global, complex environment that includes the increasing use of antiaccess and area-denial tactics and technologies by potential adversaries. This report describes new technologies and systems that would reduce the demand for logistics and meet the demand at the point of need, make maintenance more efficient, improve inter- and intratheater mobility, and improve near-real-time, in-transit visibility. Force Multiplying Technologies also explores options for the Army to operate with the other services and improve its support of Special Operations Forces. This report provides a logistics-centric research and development investment strategy and illustrative examples of how improved logistics could look in the future.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This manual provides standards for the execution of Army transportation functions in support of military operations. It reflects the shift to joint operations, prompted by the 1986 Goldwater- Nichols Act. It presents the transportation doctrine commanders require to integrate the Army's transportation capability with the capabilities of other Services and the DTS. This doctrine applies when executing missions throughout the full range of military operations, including OOTW. It is also applicable regardless of the size of the Army force involved in an operation. The manual portrays the Army transportation system as a basic element of warfighting. It uses the strategic, operational, and tactical levels of war to frame the system. Because the system is controlled by different commands throughout the levels, this manual describes procedures commanders should follow to establish a seamless total distribution system. The system links all Army installations, to include forts, camps, mobilization stations, and depots to fighting positions. This manual uses the functions of a transportation system to present the Army transportation capabilities. These elements are movements control, terminal operations, and mode operations.
