NOTE TO USERS

In June 1973 the Department of the Army announced a change in U. S. Army doctrine concerning
the su‘uctm'e of command echelons above vision level. The eect of this change is to eliminate the
eld army as a nu'mal cmnmand echelon above the cups. A discussion of these new concepts is found
in Chapter 1 of this text. Users should be aware, however, that as of the publication date of this text,
the full impact and ramications of the new docu'ine are su'll under review, and affected eld manuals
and TOE's are yet to be rewriuen. Since most of the organizations desu'ibed in the text are assigned
below division level, most of the infmam contained herein will remain largely unchanged. There-
fore, no attempt has been made to artidpate future TOE changes, and all references to the eld army
a the FASCOM contained in the text should be considered in the light of the new docu-ine.

1-5. Organizational echelons above division.

_a_. General. The u‘adional concepts of structmal organization within the U. S. Army,
division ca'ps — eld army — army group -- theater army, have remained basically unchanged a’nce
—
the 1930's. The evoluu'on of today's modern dividon, however, into a powerful, mobile, and relau'vely
self-contained force dictates that the higher echelons suppang it or directing its employment should be
as few as posble. Accadingly, in June 1973 the Department of the Army announced a change in Army
doctrine for echelons above division level. The effect of this change is to eliminate the eld army as a
normal canmand echelon above the corps. The functions formerly performed by the eld army as bmh a
tactical and adminisuau‘ve headquarters have been passed to higher and lower canmand echelons.

1-1
 Q. Echelons above egg .

(1) In waru'me, a theater army headquarters will exercise command less weratiOnal
caol over U. S. Army forces. It will interfacewith Department of the Army on all support matters
involving U. S. Army forces in the theater. In peaceu'me, the theater army headquarters may command
all Army faces in the theater. In this event it must carry out comingency planm'ng and be prepared to
respond to emergencies.

(2) Nmnally, the next echelon above the corps in the operatimal chain of command
willbe a theater headquarters. That headquarters may be a unied, or cmnbined command. When
unusual circmnstances require a U. S. Army echelon between the caps and theater headquarters, it
will have a tacu'cal funaion only and will be designated as a numbered army headquarta-s. The head-
quarta's will be tailored to the situation; hence, its a‘ze and canposition will vary and be established
in tables of distribution. Establishment of a numbered army headquarters will be an exception to the
rule, but when required theater army will provide the resources for this headquarters.
g. The eggs.

(1) The next echelon above the division will be the corps. The ca-ps will have tactical,
logistic, and adminisu‘ave functions and will have organic cunbat, combat swport, and combat
service support elem ents structured for the visualized employment. In wartime, the caps is under the
werational control of theater but continues to be under the command of theater army fq‘ amninimau've
and logistic matters. The caps will be concerned with translating the broad direcu'ves of higher head-
quarters into tactical, logsu‘c, and administrative tasle. It will exercise territorial control of the combat
zone to include allocating space for units werating in the combat zone but not assigned or under the
werational control of the caps. Thus, the tactical considerau'ons fa- employment of the ca'ps are
relatively unchanged, but is service support funcu'ons have been expanded to include many of those
previously performed by the field army.

(2) The cups headquarters will be dea’gned to conu'ol ve divisions, mae or less, and
the requim'te cmnbat support and combat service support faces necessary to round 01m and suiain such a
ghting face. It is envia‘oned that a ve division corps can be assigned an area approximately 140
ldlaneters wide and 250 ldlmneters deep in a non-aaive nuclear environment. The ca'ps organization
is en‘ble and the cmnposiu'on of each will be dierert, depending on the circmnstances. The principle
inuences on the compom'tion of the corps include the mism‘on, enemy, terrain, and constraints such as
availability of forces. An illuslrau've organizau‘onal chart depicng corps organization is shown in
gme 1- 1. The elements cunprising the caps are depicted by type and not size, in order to highlight
the exibility of the aganizational sanctum.

g. Combat sa'vice mart.

(1) The elimination of the eld army headquarters and the eld army smport conmand
(FASCOM) an the su-ucture does nu aect the performance of cqnbat service support funcu'onal tasks.
Operang units such as apply and services companies are assigned to satisfy a requirement fa the
support that they provide. These units are located where they can best provide th'at swpa't. Command
and conu'ol of units fame-1y in FASCOM has dmply been ansfared to either a caps suppm't canmand
(COSCOM) a- to ue theater army suppa't command (TASCOM).

 (2)The division suppu't command (DISCOM) pfovides direct suppa't to divisional units.
It‘s misons, funcn'ons and organization do na change as a remlt of the elimination of FASCOM an
the organizational su-ucture. Back-up support to the DISCOM is now provided by the COSCOM.

(3) The ca'ps will have a COSCOM which, unlike the DISCOM, is shuctured to support
varying combat, combat suppqt and combat service suppa't elements of the force. The theater army
commander will assigi ca'nbat service mport units to the COSCOM (corps) as they arrive in the theater,
'om other COSCOM's, or -om the TASCOM. These assignments are made in order to eedively support
the theater commander's operational plans. Combat service support units will not always be moved
laterally -om one COSCOM to anaher to coincide with the movements of tactical units. Adual move-
ment will be minimized. Support will be realigned by moving boundaries and by providing "out of zone
support." When movanent is necessary because of distance or other cmsiderations, the support unit is
located where it can best do its job.

(4) Corps rear area is expanded to include tarain formerly in the field army service
area (FASA). The COSCOM has rear area protecon (RAP) responsibility for the expanded ca-ps rear
area. The rear portion of the famer FA SA is now in the cmnmunicaons zone (COMMZ).

(5) A theater army support command (TASCOM), a major subordinate unit of the theater
army, will provide general support to the canbat zone with its functional commands. These are the
personnel cmnmand, medical command, materiel cmnmand, transportation command and may include
an engineer cmnmand. These organizaons may only be brigade or youp ze if the scope and magnitude
of their missions do 11 justify a geater capability. The TASCOM provides GS to the COMMZ with the
same organizations, and provides DS, RAP and other area type suppa't thrwgh its theater army area
canmand (TAACOM). The tradiu‘onal functions and responsibiliu'es of the TASCOM are relatively un-
changed. The faciliu'es, units and terrain of the rear portion of the forma‘ field army service area are
now in the COMMZ. Those GS units in this area may be assigned to one of the TASCOM funconal
canmands and the DS units may be assigned to the TAACOM.

1-6. Aviation organimons. The aviaon units desm'ibed in this text are divided into two categq'ies —

_a_. Divim'onal aviaon - the organic aviation and aviau‘on support assets of the airmobile,
infantry, airborne, mechanized, and armored divisions. These units are discussed in Part One of this
text.

_l_>. Nondivisional aviation - the aviau'on and aviau'on simpa't assets assigned within the
structure of the caps, excluding the divisions. Um‘ts containing such assets are discussed in Part Two
of this text.

 Q) En route air trafc control of aircraft operang under instrument ight rules
within the divia'on area.

(5) Concem of emglgment. The battalion is not normally employed as a whole unit;
instead, its elem ents are ass’gned missions within their capabiliu'es to provide continuous suppm't to
units of the divia'on.

2. Aviau'on battalion headquarters. The battalion headquarters is normally located in the

vidnity of the division insuumented aireld. To reduce vulnerability to guerrilla action, subadinate
units of the battalion, particularly the assault helicopter cmnpany, are usually dispersed close to the
division reserve.

(1) The battalion cmnmander assigns specic taslm to appropriate aviation cmnpanies
of the battalion based on their capabilities and the type of missiOn to be perfumed. He
may, when
directed by the division commander, exerdse operational conu'ol over all other organic aviation
elements of the diviu'on in order to increase the total organic aviation capability. In addition, he
advises the divim'm staff on all matters pertaining to aviau'on in the division and, whenever feasible,
recanmends the integration of aviation in support of dividon operau'ons.

(2) The battalion commander is also the division aviation oicer. While lling both
pom'tions, he is responsible for keeping the division commander informed and advised on all
matters concerning the employment of elements of the battalion and all other organic and nonaganic
Army aviation units and elements supporting the division.

(3) As divisiOn aviation officer, the battalion commander prepares the aviation annex of
all division mders, and recommends to the divim'on G3 the allocatiOn of Army aviation means to
support the requirern ents of the division.

(4) The division aviation ofcer may exeru'se werational control, when delegated by
the divia'on canmander, of all Army aviau'on units and elements assigned, attached, or under
operatiOnal control of the canmand.

(5) Upon receipt of a specic misdon, the battalion commander asu‘gns it to the
apprwriate aviation company. The company Mmander will analyze the requiremert and assign
it to the appropriate platoon, insin'ing that mely planning and coordinau‘on are eected between
elements of the units concerned. It is the aviation unit commander's responsibility to effect liaison
with the supported unit when asa’gned a mission. When asa‘gned the mission, the platoon and
section cmnmanders d the aviation companies coordinate with and advise the simported unit canmander
on all aviaon matters. Planning will be accunplished to insure mdinau'on and communicau'on
between the simported canmander and the supporting aviau‘on company.

 (6) Mess facilities for headquarters and headquarters company.

_e_. Limitations. The aviation general support company, infanu'y division combat aviau'on
battalion, has the following limitations:

(1) It is partially dependent on higher headquarters or adjacent units for local security.

(2) It can oer only limited resistance against hostile ground attack or enemy guerrilla
action.

i. Conc of emplgment. The aviation general support company operates and maimains a
heliport adjacent to the division main command post to support the division commander and his staff.

Li) Conducts chemical agent detection and radiological monitoring and survey
operations, nuclear target acquim‘tion, and nuclear damage assessment.

Note. This unit is dependent upon the headquarters and headquarters troop for mess facilities.

(5) ConceEt of emglment.

(_a_) General.

_1_. Employment of the air cavalry troop is based upon effective use of its
unique characterisu‘cs and capabilities and an understanding of its limit ations. The air cavalry troop
may be employed on variais types of tactical missions. It also may be employed on independent missions
if required. The troop is primarily employed in close conjunction with armored cavalry ground units so
that the capabilin'es of ground and air elements will complement each other. The air cavalry troop -

(a) Conducts reconnaissance and security missions over large areas,

including acquisition of nuclear targets and nuclear damage assessment.

(b) Conducts chemical and radiological monitoring and survey, and

collects biological samples.

(c) Conducts screening missions.

(d) Acts as part of a covering force.

(e) Performs rear area security.

(f) Provides security between ground tactical elements.

(g) Provides armed air escort for airmobile forces.

(h) Seizes and dominates lightly defended areas or terrain features.

_2_. The troop operates largely at nap-f of-the earth altitude (the airspace ex-
tending ‘om the gourd to a few feet above, but generally below the level of the sm'rounding terrain
formations). This provides a relatively high degree of protecon'‘un enemy ground and air acon.
Aircraft are armed with area and point re weapons capable of the demucu’on and suppression of enemy
forces.

 é. The air cavalry trooP will operate from one or more assembly areas for
tl'e pulposes of Olganizing for combat; refueling, maintenance, and
supply; and regrouping after an
attack or movement. Duting attack, the combat elements will operate from assembly areas located
well felward in the combat zone, and as close to the enemy pos'tions as terrain and enemy activity will
permit. During periods of combat, the air cavalry troop service elements may operate from the
vicinity
of the squadron trains area to accomplish maintenance of vein'cles and to provide aircraft
supply and
Smeort activities. A high degree of air and ground mobility in the service platoon permits maintenance
and supply operations as far forward in the area of Operations as possible and avoids
lengthy disengagement
by comb at elements.

é. Air trafc regulation and identification of aircraft is of particular impor-

tance. Only minimum air traffic control measures can be utilized if the air cavalry troop is to accom-
plish its assigned mission. The use of airspace in the troop area of operations will require close
coordination with 'iendly ground elements, air defense units, and other agencies operating within
the
area. However, the use of nap— of-the-earth ight techniques will minimize the degree of coordinau‘on
required.

(b) Fundamentals of employment. Employment of tlm air cavalry troop is based on

tle following principles:

_1_. Sugrise. The success of combat Operations by air cavalry troops will
depend mainly on the element of surprise attained. This surprise is achieved by ua'ng
speed, maneuver-
ability, and the troop capability to cross terrain obstacles to strike the enemy at an unexpected time and
locau'on, and from an unexpected direction. Surprise can be achieved by well-executed
movements at
low altitude, by using available cover and concealment, speed, aggressiveness, and deception.

_2_. Fire and movement. Air cavalry units use the techniques of re and
movement to destroy the enemy, and for self-protection. Organic weapons, as well as those of ground
elements, must be used to the maximum to provide stppressive fires to protect the movement of aircraft
and reduce their exposure to ground fire. The speed and maneuverability of the air cavalry
elements
enable them to move into unexpected and advantageous positions from which they can be employed to
disrupt, disorganize, and destroy tie enemy. The psychological effect of the concentrated fire of rapidly
advancing armed aircraft should be recognized and exploited.

é. Teamwork. Air cavalry units are organized and equipped to operate

habitually as units or as teams composed of aeroscout, aeroweapon, and aerorie aircraft. The capabili-
ties and characteristics of these elements are designed to complement each other. The exibility in the
org anization of the troop permits rapid organization of platoon teams specically tailored to complete the
mission. Teamwo< between air ar ground reconnaissance elements is essential to fully exploit the
capabilities of each.

g. Economy of employment. Elements of the air cavalry troop will be em-

ployed to insure a mardmum ying capability when required. When a tdal tr00p effort is not required,
only those elements necessary to complete the mission are committed. Aircraft not engaged in
flying
missions are maintained in the highest state of operational readiness commensurate with the
situation.
 (g) Factors affecting employment. As with any combat unit, employment of the
air cavalry troop should be based on METT (mission, enemy situation, terrain and weather, and the
troops available).

_1_. Mison. The primary consideration in the employment of the troop is

its am'gned mission. The misdon affects the organization, combat form ations, and scheme of maneuver.

Enemy situation. In reconnaissance missions, the tr00p is norm ally

_2_.

oriemed on the enemy; in security missiom, it is oriented on the friendly main body. Employment of
the unit in reconnaissance missions is based upon gaining information of the area of operations, finding
the enemy forces, conducting surveillance and reconnaissance of enemy dispositions, reporting the
nature of tie enemy located, acquiring targets, and engaging the enemy within its means as required to
accomplish its am'gned mission. Consideration of the enemy situation will frequently dictate the specific
mission to be assigned, security or reconnaissance, or a combination thereof. Enemy capabilities,
imluding nuclear potential, will affect the employment of these units.

é. Terrain and weather. Terrain has a lesser effect on these units than on
ground forces. The air movement capability of these units negates tie effects of terrain obstacles that
impede the movement of ground elements of the squadron. The primary terrain consideration for air
cavalry units is evaluation and use of air movement routes for nap-of-the-earth ying techniques. Avail-
ability of landing areas should also be considered. Weather is a controlling factor in employment because
high winds, idng conditions, and periods of low visibility may restrict use of these techniques. However,
air activities must be planned to follow up quickly and to exploit these adverse weather conditions.

g. Troms available. The assignment of missions and the planned employ-

ment of air cavalry units is dependent on the personnel available, particularly aviators. To insure sus-
tained operations, consideration must be given to such items as previous and contemplated employment
of the unit, status of equipment and tr00ps, and adequacy of logistics to support the mission.

(g) Oganization for comb at. Organization of the air cavalry troop for combat is
characterized by eadbility, and is such that small tailored teams may be formed and used according
to the mission. In combat, the flexibility of the troop will permit variations in the force organization to
meet changing situations. Elements of the troop may perform independent missions, or elements may be
cross- attached to provide several balanced air teams. The troop may be reinforced by attachment of
air elements from other sources, or it may provide reinforcement or support for ground units.

(_e) Fire supp ort.

l. Added re support may be made available to the air cavalry troop by

artillery, mortars, Davy Crockett, ground forces, or tactical air. Fires provided by these elements must
be planned and coordinated with planned troop employment. Mortars and artillery, including nuclear
fires, will provide the bulk of the fire support for the troop. These fires, as well as fires provided by
other units, may be required for suppression, counterbattery, or destruction of targets beyond the capabil-
ity of organic air weapons.
3. An artillery forward observer will be made available to the troop when
artillery is employed in direct support of or attached to tie armored cavalry squadron. Requests for
artillery fires are processed through the trooP commander, or tle forward observer, if available.

 3-12. Aviation general support company, aviaon group.

_a_. _
Commsition. See figure 3-12.

b. To provide aviation mport for the dividon headquarters, support comm and, and
Mi__s__sion.
o'ler units without organic aircraft, to furnish su'veillance, and to acquire comb at intelligence and tar-
get inform ation for the airmobile divia'on.

g. Assiment. Organic to the aviation mm, airmobile divion, TOE 7-200.

g. Capabilies. Provides -
K.
Aerial reconnaissance and sm'veillance of enuny areas by visual am limited elecuonic
(1)
meam for the purpose of locating, verifying, a evaluang targets, condmng terrain stuiy, and pro—
viding fire adjushnent.

(2) Day and niglt operaons dm'ing visual ight coions and limited operaons under
insmunent ight condions.

Aircraft for aerial command post, control, liaison, reconnaissance,

(3) and radio reuans-
misdon for the dividon.

(4) Aircraft as required to supplement aeromedical evacuaon misdons.

(5) Organizational maintenance for organic equipment and direct simport maintenance,
exclling armament and avionics, for organic aircraft.

_e_. Concept of emploment. The aviaon general support company operates om two locations
within the division base area. The main elements, to imlte the company headquarters and the sur-
veillance, utility, and service platoons, are employed in general support of the division and operate
from an ingrumented heliport. These helicopters are retained at the division main heliport. Mainte-
nance is provided at the company's heliport which has a day and niglm capability, bLt normally is not
instrtnnented. The surveillance platoon operates from the divion base heliport and is employed in
general support of the division through operaonal comol of the assistam chief of staff G2. Requests
om dividonal units for sm'veillance misdons are combined at division and programed to the surveillance
platoon. Operau'ons om brigade base areas are not anticipated because aircraft operang in the divi-
don base area can provide adequate support m the brigades. Helicopters of the company normally are
-

employed on a mission type basis within piories established by the aviation youp commander. The
genaal support aviation company comm ander alloc ates his aircraft to meet established priorities in
coordinaon with the aviaon goup. Aircraft assigned on a connuous support basis are idenu'fied in the
divis‘on aviation group order. Aircraft not committed, or tlnse due mainmname, are retained at the
company's base airfield.
