2013 printing. This manual focuses on EOD techniques which have either been developed or changed significantly over the past 11 years. Modularity has created exponential growth of EOD forces in an extremely short amount of time. Rules of allocation for EOD companies have continually changed to adapt to the current fight and ensure that EOD forces remain relevant. This publication provides Army EOD the opportunity to capture into a single document the most successful techniques available to perform EOD tasks and effectively complete missions. ATP 4-32 is a sole source documented explanation of EOD mission sets throughout the full range of military operations. The publication covers support provided to combatant commanders on counter terrorism and irregular warfare. EOD forces are a key enabler to deter and defeat aggression, project power despite anti- access/area denial challenges, counter weapons of mass destruction, and maintain a safe, secure and effective nuclear deterrent. EOD also supports civil and federal authorities in the defense of the homeland. Most stability, counter-insurgency, humanitarian, and disaster relief operations will require EOD support. This ATP distills public laws and regulatory guidance that specifically direct the Services EOD mission sets and provides coherent Army doctrine for EOD in unified land operations. ATP 4-32 provides doctrinal guidance for EOD commanders and Soldiers responsible for all EOD operations. Commanders and staffs of Army headquarters serving as joint task force or multinational headquarters should also refer to applicable joint, multiservice or multinational doctrine concerning EOD operations. Trainers and educators throughout the Army will also use this manual.

This manual meets the first aid training needs of individual service members. Because medical personnel will not always be readily available, the non-medical service members must rely heavily on their own skills and knowledge of life-sustaining methods to survive on the integrated battlefield. This publication outlines both self-aid and aid to other service members (buddy aid). More importantly, it emphasizes prompt and effective action in sustaining life and preventing or minimizing further suffering and disability. First aid is the emergency care given to the sick, injured, or wounded before being treated by medical personnel. The term first aid can be defined as "urgent and immediate lifesaving and other measures, which can be performed for casualties by nonmedical personnel when medical personnel are not immediately available." Nonmedical service members have received basic first aid training and should remain skilled in the correct procedures for giving first aid. This manual is directed to all service members. The procedures discussed apply to all types of casualties and the measures described are for use by both male and female service members.

Whenever the situation warrants the application of deadly force, a Marine must be able to deliver well-aimed shots to eliminate the threat. A Marine who is proficient in pistol marksmanship handles this challenge without escalating the level of violence or causing unnecessary collateral damage. It is not enough to simply provide Marines with the best available firearms; we must also ensure that their training prepares them to deliver accurate fire against the enemy under the most adverse conditions without hesitancy, fear, or uncertainty of action. A well-trained Marine is confident that he can protect himself, accomplish the mission, and protect his fellow Marines. To be combat ready, a Marine must be skilled in the tactics, techniques, and procedures of pistol marksmanship and diligent in the proper care and maintenance of the M9, 9-mm service pistol.

2006 printing. This manual defines the role, operational requirements, mission tasks, battlefield functions, and command and control relationships of Infantry battalions organic to the Infantry Brigade Combat Team (IBCT). Users of this manual must understand the elements of doctrinal literature and their relationship to each other. The commonly used terms, tactics, techniques, and procedures are both interrelated and mutually supportive.

FMs provide doctrine, tactics, and some techniques, while mission training plans (MTP) provide techniques and procedures. Procedures can also be found in publications such as unit standing operating procedures (SOP) and Soldiers' manuals as well as others. Tactics, techniques, and procedures, in that order, become more prescriptive and require less judgment as these elements are applied. This manual is provided for use by Infantry battalion commanders and staffs, company commanders, and special platoon leaders.
