Book excerpt: This field manual (FM) 4-30, "Ordnance Operations," provides fundamental guidance for the employment of United States Army ordnance maintenance operations, munitions operations and explosive ordnance disposal operations in support of unified land operations and warfighting functions. Unified land operations are how the Army seizes, retains, and exploits the initiative to gain and maintain a position or relative advantage in sustained land operations through simultaneous offensive, defensive, and stability operations in order to prevent or deter conflict, prevail in war, and create the conditions for favorable conflict resolution (ADRP 3-0). The purpose of the ordnance corps is to support the development, production, acquisition and sustainment of equipment- including weapons systems and munitions- and to provide explosive ordnance disposal (EOD), during peace and war, to provide superior combat power to the United States (U.S.) Army. The ordnance corps has a rich and robust history of supporting the force dating back from the American Revolution to present day. The future of our nation and Army will continue to be engaged in an era of "persistent conflict" a period of protracted confrontation among states, non-state, and individual actors increasingly willing to use violence to achieve their political and ideological ends. The ordnance corps must evolve and remain the indispensable sustainment warfighting function in order for the Army to successfully execute simultaneous and protracted operations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The threat variables associated with military ordnance are enormous, requiring the application of a structured process to identify unknown munitions. The focus of Practical Military Ordnance Identification, Second Edition is the application of a practical deductive process to identify unknown ordnance items that are commonly recovered outside military control. The author supplies a seven-step procedure to identify unknown munitions by their category, group, and type. Detailed logic trees help users narrow down the possibilities in order to accurately identify ordnance. The book covers the safety precautions associated with each category and group of ordnance. It describes many ordnance construction characteristics and explains the fundamentals of military ordnance fuzing. Appendices define terms and supply abbreviations and acronyms used to describe military ordnances. Coverage new to this edition include: a list of conventional markings; additional safety precautions to take; an expanded list of high explosives; additional technical details on explosives effects; hazards associated with pyrotechnics, pyrophorics, smoke compounds, and incendiaries; a section on pre-1870 projectiles, hand grenades, landmines, underwater ordnances, and rockets; and details on Man-Portable-Air-Defense-Systems (MANPADS) missile systems.

This book was released on 2015-08-24 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication, Field Manual FM 4-30 Ordnance Operations April 2014, provides fundamental guidance for the employment of United States Army ordnance maintenance operations, munitions operations and explosive ordnance disposal operations in support of unified land operations and warfighting functions. Unified land operations are how the Army seizes, retains, and exploits the initiative to gain and maintain a position or relative advantage in sustained land operations through simultaneous offensive, defensive, and stability operations in order to prevent or deter conflict, prevail in war, and create the conditions for favorable conflict resolution (ADRP 3-0). The principal audience for FM 4-30 is all members of the profession of arms. Commanders and staffs of Army headquarters serving as a joint task force (JTF) or a multinational headquarters should also refer to applicable joint or multinational doctrine concerning the range of military operations as well as joint or multinational forces. Trainers and educators throughout the Army will also use this publication. The purpose of the ordnance corps is to support the development, production, acquisition and sustainment of equipment- including weapons systems and munitions- and to provide explosive ordnance disposal (EOD), during peace and war, to provide superior combat power to the United States (U.S.) Army. The ordnance corps has a rich and robust history of supporting the force dating back from the American Revolution to present day. The future of our nation and Army will continue to be engaged in an era of "persistent conflict" a period of protracted confrontation among states, non-state, and individual actors increasingly willing to use violence to achieve their political and ideological ends. The ordnance corps must evolve and remain the indispensable sustainment warfighting function in order for the Army to successfully execute simultaneous and protracted operations. The Army sustainment concept is based on the integration of people, systems, material, health services, and other support that links sustainment to the operations process. Today modularity requires the ordnance corps to anticipate, analyze, and tailor available resources for effective and timely maintenance, munitions, and EOD support. Adaptive planning and increased options for decision makers now necessitate maintenance, munitions, and EOD managers to embrace change, innovation, and flexibility at all levels. The ordnance corps success is measured by how well it supports unified land operations with the elements of maintenance, munitions and EOD support. FM 4-30 contains four chapters: Chapter 1 covers a summative history of the ordnance corps and outlines the core competencies of the ordnance corps and their strategic relevance in sustaining the Army's unified land operations function. Chapter 2 discusses the tactical and operational mission of ordnance munitions operation as a major factor in determining the outcome of offensive, defensive, stability, support, protection and other combat operations. Chapter 3 discusses EOD operations, organizational structure, their command and support relationships and how they support unified land operations. Chapter 4 discusses the two levels of maintenance concept and how maintenance support is provided above and below the brigade level. Chapter 4 also identifies the command and support relationships between the U.S. Army Materiel Command (USAMC) maintenance sustainment organizations and the operational Army in the conduct of unified land operations.

Download or read book Explosive Ordnance Disposal Operations ATTP 4 32 written by Department of the Army and published by Createspace Independent Pub. This book was released on 2012-10-02 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Army Explosive Ordnance Disposal program can trace its roots back to April 1941. The United States was not yet at war, but was actively preparing for that eventuality. Embassy personnel and military observers were reporting on the actions of warring nations and as these reports were evaluated by the War Department, Intelligence Sections, recommendations were made concerning actions that should be taken by the United States. Delayed-explosion bombs were creating havoc in Europe, taking a heavy toll on lives and industry. It was expected that if the United States entered the war, we would experience bombing of our cities and industries. As a result, the need for a bomb disposal program in this country received immediate attention. It was decided that both military and civilian bomb disposal personnel would be trained by the Army. All responsibility for bomb disposal was placed under the U.S. Army Ordnance Department. Army Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures (ATTP) 4-32 provides the doctrinal guidance for commanders, staffs, and leaders at all levels responsible for explosive ordnance disposal (EOD) operations. The doctrine in this ATTP is based on suggestions, insights, and observations developed from past and current operations and an analysis of the future modular force support in line with national military strategy. It provides staff planning, responsibilities, capabilities, and requirements relevant to the EOD mission. This manual focuses on the employment of EOD forces. This ATTP explains the mission and organization of EOD units. It describes why EOD forces are an important part of the combined arms team throughout all phases of full spectrum operations. It also prescribes responsibilities for EOD forces in support of the Army, Joint Force, and subordinate commanders. The manual reflects and supports the Army operations doctrine as stated in Army Doctrine Publication (ADP 3-0). This ATTP provides commanders and staff with doctrine for EOD operations and integration of EOD forces. It describes the EOD functional relationships which integrate EOD with the warfighting functions. This ATTP serves to illustrate Army EOD force structure operating as an enabler in the joint operating environment. This publication applies to the Active Army, the Army National Guard (ARNG)/Army National Guard of the United States (ARNGUS), and the United States Army Reserve (USAR) unless otherwise stated.

Download or read book The Ordnance Department written by Constance Green and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-07-02 with total page 562 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. Army fought World War II with materiel much of which was developed in the decade prior to our entry, particularly in the period following the German blitz in Poland. Our efforts to develop munitions to the point where our armies could cope on equal terms with those of potential enemies are covered here in this, the first of three projected volumes on the history of the Ordnance Department in World War II. How well the Ordnance Department succeeded in matching the Germans in quality continues to be a matter of debate both within the Ordnance Department itself, and between the using arms and the Department. That the battle of quantity was won-with the help of a superb industrial machine-can hardly be denied. This volume, the result of diligent research by Dr. Constance McL. Green and her associates, should interest not only military men but also scientists, industrialists, and laymen in general. Among other things, it shows the urgent necessity of a directed, continuous, and intensive research program and the danger in failing to recognize and profit by developments abroad. Also shown is the inherent time interval between the drawing board and the production of the end item in quantity."
Download or read book Army Explosive Ordnance Disposal Operations in Support of Army Special Operations Forces What Changes Are Required written by and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Army Special Operations Forces (ARSOF) are a significant contributing force in the Global War on Terrorism, but they have no explosive ordnance disposal (EOD) support other than on an ad hoc basis. The EOD support provided ARSOF, while competent and trained for conventional operations, has not undergone any unique preparation for operations in support of ARSOF. There has been no formal effort to engage both ARSOF and EOD to optimize integration. This study assesses what can be done to insure that ARSOF is provided focused and trained EOD in support of missions in a unique operational environment. Conventional forces have ready access to EOD support through relationships established in the continental United States, the Combat Training Centers, and past contingency operations. The Army's Cold War focus resulted in EOD being organized and equipped primarily to support conventional forces. However, the operational environment has changed. The United States can no longer expect to fight predominately high-intensity, mechanized battles on linear, contiguous battlefields. Future opponents will employ asymmetric methods to avoid its strengths. ARSOF is central to combating these threats. Proliferation of Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear (CBRN) technology and the continued use of improvised explosive devices in global attacks demands a rigorous research effort.
