In addition, as a bonus, there are reproductions of over 100 vital U.S. Army Field Manuals covering such topics as combat, arms, operations, training, support, and dozens of special topics! This manual discusses the employment of airborne brigades, battalions, and regiments in airborne operations within the context of the AirLand Battle. It sets forth tactical and administrative support doctrine for the employment of Army forces in joint airborne operations. It discusses command and staff procedures, tactics, and techniques used in the planning and execution of parachute operations at brigade and lower echelons. The discussions are written in general terms so they apply to brigade or smaller units taking part in joint airborne operations. For this reason, the term "airborne force" is used to refer to the Army component in the operation. The principal tactics and techniques peculiar to airborne operations are of primary concern. Details of unit organization/capabilities, and guidance for employment of units in other than airborne operations are in other field manuals. Contents include: Preparation for War, The Soldier, The Leader, The Unit, Unit Training Program, Capabilities of Airborne Forces, Missions of Airborne Forces, Fundamentals of Airborne Operations, Limitations, Preparation of Plans and Orders, Ground Tactical Plan, Landing Plan, Delivery, Assembly and Reorganization, Air Movement Plan, Marshaling, Outload, Tactical Operations, Combat Support, Airfield Seizure, Naval Gunfire, Air Force Support, Army Aviation Operations, Engineer Support, Forward Aviation Combat Engineering, Intelligence and Electronic Warfare Support, Signal Support, Military Police Support, NBC Planning, Combat Service Support, Logistical Plans and Preparations, Personnel Plans and Preparation, Communications.
