CHAPTER 1
Lesson 1: Tactical Standing Operating Procedure (TACSOP)
I begin the first lesson talking about the most important document in a unit's kitbag, the Tactical Standing Operating Procedure (TACSOP). This is the unit's bible for conducting tactical operations; it provides continuity for new soldiers and guidance to supporting units. It should be the basis for the unit to plan and structure its tactical training in support of staff operations and subordinate command and control (C2). The TACSOP is a living document and can be adjusted to support new capabilities, change of mission, or any task/function that that requires detailed instruction. Most important, the TACSOP is the foundation a unit utilizes when it needs to restructure or retrain its staff processes.
The units TACSOP and its supporting Annex's are a set of instructions to standardize routine and recurring operational procedures within the brigade. The document provides commanders, supervisors, and leaders recommended concepts on procedures for brigade field operations. Its design is to lead you systematically through tactical standard operating procedures, which will assist in field operations, as well as help sustain command and control across brigade operations.
Task and Function
The Army thinks creating standard operating procedures (SOPs) for tactical operations is so important that they have established its own task and functions within The Army Universal Task List (FM7-15):
"FM 7-15 outlines Army tactical task 5.2.1.3, Establish or revise standard [or standing] operating procedures:
Create or modify a set of instructions covering those tasks and functions that lend themselves to a definite or standing procedure without a loss of effectiveness; the standing operating procedures is effective unless ordered otherwise to meet altered conditions.
Per FM 7-15, the overall goal for SOPs is to facilitate mission accomplishment and warfighting functions integration."
The tasks and functions depicted in FM7-15 provide measures to evaluate a unit's capability, as well as the scale the unit uses to identify its effectiveness (See Table 1).
Developing a TACSOP
A unit's SOP should always align with its higher headquarters existing documentation/SOPs, as well as meets the Army standardization policy requirements. There are certain questions the author needs to answer before they begin developing an SOP:
1. What is the objective?
2. What are the tasks and functions (procedure) that need delivering to meet the objective?
3. What is the method to achieve the objective?
4. How does the writer put in plain words the proper instructions?
The process in writing an SOP is fairly simple and straightforward the author develops a draft and then staffs the document for recommendations and ultimately approval to ensure the final SOP is accurate. The author should ensure that his writing style is concise, organized, and to the point ensuring the instructions are easy to read and follow. A good proof of principle to go by can junior enlisted soldiers understand exactly what to do after reading the instructions one time. The most important guidance the author of an SOP needs to remember is, "keep it simple and to the point".
SOP Categories
This section provides a listing of annexes by category and responsible staff officers. For the sustainment annex, I have provided the appropriate appendixes required and who is responsible for its substance. The staff positions are designated using the code "S" and a number relates to a functional area.
• S-1, personnel staff officer
• S-2, intelligence staff officer
• S-3, operations staff officer
• S-4, logistics staff officer
• S-5, plans staff officer
• S-6, signal staff officer
• S-7, inform and influence activities staff officer
• S-9, civil affairs operations staff officer
The following are the Army's suggested SOP categories. It is not required for a unit to create each category, for the unit may not have a need for that function, so utilize if it pertains to your organization. If you choose not to use a category simply, list it in the table of content as, "not required". Of course this listing is just a suggestion and is not all inclusive to each unit particular requirements so you will see some annexes are either labeled spares or not used designed for the user to add additional topics as deemed by the type unit and its commander.
• ANNEX A – Task Organization (S-3)
• ANNEX B – Intelligence (S-2)
• ANNEX C – Operations (S-3)
• ANNEX D – Fires (Fire Support Officer)
• ANNEX E – Protection (Protection Officer as designated by the commander)
• ANNEX F – Sustainment (S-4)
* Appendix 1 – Logistics (S-4)
* Tab A – Sustainment Overlay (automated or manual)
* Tab B – Maintenance
* Tab C – Transportation
* Tab D – Supply
• Events Check List
• Concept of Support Diagram
• Sustainment Synchronization Matrix
* Tab E – Field Services
* Tab F – Distribution
* Tab G – Contract Support Integration
* Tab H – Mortuary Affairs
* Tab I (Internment and Resettlement
* Appendix 2 – Personnel Services Support (S-1)
* Tab A – Human Resources Support
* Tab B – Financial Management
* Tab C – Legal Support
* Tab D – Religious Support
* Tab E – Band Operations
* Appendix 3 – Army Heath System Support (Surgeon)
* Tab A – Sustainment Overlay
* Tab B – Medical Evacuation
• ANNEX G – ENGINEER (Engineer Officer)
• ANNEX H – SIGNAL (S-6)
• ANNEX I – Not Used
• ANNEX J – Inform and Influence Activities (S-7)

ANNEX F (Sustainment) Instruction
The S-4 is responsible for the development of Annex F (Sustainment) to describe how sustainment operations support the concept of operations described in the base plan or order. In Annex F (Sustainment) for the TACSOP, the S-4 describes basic operations for his staff and subordinate units in the support of sustainment operations across the Brigade to support not only training, but to be an all-encompassing framework for sustainment operations for the Brigade in a tactical environment. The S-4 receives assistances in the annex development from the Support Operations Officer (SPO) for logistics (Appendix 1), S-1 for Personnel Services Support (Appendix 2), and the Surgeon Army Heath System Support (Appendix 3). Things to consider when developing the annex are staff procedures, reports and times, supply, maintenance, transportation, medical, personnel, rehearsals, briefings, shift change standards, battle drills, as well as examples of staff products like logistical synchronization matrix, event check lists, and concept of support sketch. Bottom-line whatever task and functions is important for the sustainment operations in support of the unit to be successful it needs to be explained in this annex, appendixes, and associated tabs.
ATTP 5-0.1, Commander and Staff Officer Guide, provides the best example of how to develop Annex F (Sustainment) and I was inclined to include it in this lesson.
"The following annex provides fundamental considerations, formats, and instructions for developing Annex F (Sustainment) to the base plan or order from ATTP 5-0.1, Commander and Staff Officer Guide."

Standard Business Terms and customer information / data protection declaration
I. Standard business terms
§ 1 Basic provisions
(1) The following terms and conditions of business apply for all contracts concluded with us as the supplier (Moluna GmbH) via the websites AbeBooks and/or ZVAB. Unless otherwise agreed, the inclusion of your own terms and conditions is explicitly rejected.
(2) A ‘consumer’ in the sense of the following regulations is every natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities. The term ‘businessman’ refers to every natural person, legal person or legally responsible partnership that concludes a legal transaction in pursuance of his/its independent professional or commercial activity.
§ 2 Conclusion of the contract
(1) The subject-matter of the contract is the selling of products .
(2) If an article is placed by us with AbeBooks or ZVAB, the activation of the page on AbeBooks or ZVAB shall involve the binding offer to conclude a contract under the terms and conditions contained in the article page.
(3) The contract shall become effective via the online shopping cart system as follows:
The products intended for purchase are moved to the "shopping cart". You can select the "Shopping Cart" using the appropriate buttons on the navigation bar and make changes there at any time.
After calling up the “Checkout” page and entering the required personal data and payment and shipping conditions, all order information is then displayed again on the order summary page.
Before submitting the order, you have the ability once more to review or change any information here (you may also use the "back" button on the Internet browser), or to cancel the purchase.
By clicking the “Buy now” button to submit the order, you declare your legally binding acceptance of the order which makes the contract effective.
(4) The execution of the order and the sending of all the details necessitated by the conclusion of the contract take place via e-mail, in a partially-automated manner. Consequently, you have to ensure that the e-mail address that you have deposited with us is the correct one, and that the receipt of the respective e-mails is guaranteed. In particular, you have to ensure that the respective e-mails are not blocked by a SPAM filter.
§ 3 Right of retention, reservation of proprietary rights
(1) You can only exercise a right of retention if the situation in question involves claims arising from the same contractual relationship.
(2) The goods remain our property until the purchase price is paid in full.
(3) If you are a businessman, the following conditions also apply:
a) We retain ownership of the goods until all the claims arising from the ongoing business relationship have been settled in full. The goods subject to retention of title may not be pledged or transferred by way of security before ownership of the said goods changes hands.
b) You can re-sell the goods within the framework of an orderly transaction. In this regard, you hereby cede all the claims amounting to the magnitude of the billing amount that accrue to you as a result of the re-selling operation to us, and we accept the cession. Furthermore, you are authorised to collect the claim in question. However, insofar as you do not discharge your payment obligations in an orderly fashion, we reserve the right to collect the claim ourselves.
c) In a situation involving the combination and amalgamation of the goods subject to retention of title, we acquire co-ownership of the newly-formed item. This co-ownership corresponds to the ratio that exists between the invoice value of the goods subject to retention of title and the other processed items at the time of processing.
d) If you make a request of this nature, we shall be obligated to release the securities that are due to us, to the extent that the realisable value of our securities exceeds the claim to be secured by more than 10%. We are responsible for selecting the securities to be released.
§ 4 Warranty
(1) The statutory warranty rights are applicable.
(2) As a consumer, you are requested to promptly check the product for completeness, visible defects and transport damage as soon as it is delivered, and promptly disclose your complaints to us and the shipping company in writing. Even if you do not comply with this request, it shall have no effect on your legal warranty claims.
(3) If a characteristic of the goods deviates from the objective requirements, the deviation shall only be deemed to be agreed if you were informed of the same by us before submitting the contractual declaration and the deviation was expressly and separately agreed between the contracting parties.
(4)
Insofar as you are an entrepreneur, the following shall apply in deviation from the above warranty provisions:
a) Only our own specifications and the manufacturer's product description shall be deemed agreed as the quality of the goods, but not other advertising, public promotions and statements by the manufacturer.
b) In the event of defects, we shall, at our discretion, provide warranty by rectification of the defect or subsequent delivery. If the rectification of defects fails, you may, at your option, demand a reduction in price or withdraw from the contract. The rectification of defects shall be deemed to have failed after a second unsuccessful attempt, unless the nature of the goods or the defect or other circumstances indicate otherwise. In the event of rectification of defects, we shall not be obliged to bear the increased costs arising from the transport of the goods to a place other than the place of performance, unless such transport is in accordance with the intended use of the goods.
c) The warranty period shall be one year from delivery of the goods. The shortening of the period shall not apply
- for culpable damage attributable to us arising from injury to life, limb or health and for other damage caused intentionally or by gross negligence;
- insofar as we have fraudulently concealed the defect or have assumed a guarantee for the quality of the item;
- in the case of items which have been used for a building in accordance with their customary use and have caused its defectiveness;
- in the case of statutory rights of recourse that you may assert against us in connection with rights arising from defects.
§ 5 Choice of law, place of fulfilment, jurisdiction
(1) German law shall apply. This choice of law only applies to customers if it does not result in the revocation of the protection guaranteed by the mandatory provisions of the law of the country in which the respective customer’s usual place of residence is located (benefit-of-the-doubt principle).
(2) If you are not a consumer, but a businessman, a legal entity under public law or an institutional fund governed by public law, our place of business is the place of jurisdiction as well as the place of fulfilment for all services that follow from the business relationships that exist with us. The same condition applies to situations in which you are not associated with a general place of jurisdiction in Germany or the EU, as well as situations in which the place of residence or the usual place of residence is not known at the time of commencement of proceedings. This has no bearing on the capacity to call upon the court associated with another place of jurisdiction.
(3) The provisions of the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods are explicitly inapplicable.

Your data is transferred here for example to the shipping companies and dropshipping providers, payment service providers, service providers for handling the order and IT service providers that you have selected. We will comply strictly with legal requirements in every case. The scope of data transmission is restricted to a minimum.
Duration of storage
After contractual processing has been completed, the data is initially stored for the duration of the warranty period, then in accordance with the retention periods prescribed by law, especially tax and commercial law, and then deleted after the period has elapsed, unless you have agreed to further processing and use.
Rights of the affected person
If the legal requirements are fulfilled, you have the following rights according to art. 15 to 20 GDPR: Right to information, correction, deletion, restriction of processing, data portability. You also have a right of objection against processing based on art. 6 (1) GDPR, and to processing for the purposes of direct marketing, according to art. 21 (1) GDPR.
Right to complain to the regulatory authority
You have the right to complain to the regulatory authority according to art. 77 GDPR if you believe that your data is not being processed legally.
Right to object
If the data processing outlined here is based on our legitimate interests in accordance with Article 6(1)f) GDPR, you have the right for reasons arising from your particular situation to object at any time to the processing of your data with future effect.
If the objection is successful, we will no longer process the personal data, unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that outweigh your interests or rights and freedoms, or the processing is intended for the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims.
