Book Description
This publication, Army Techniques Publication ATP 4-91 Army Field Support Brigade Change 2 July 2014, is a major revision to ATP 4-91. It provides basic doctrinal discussion on the organization and operations of the Army Field Support Brigade. The primary target audience for this field manual includes: Headquarters Department of the Army, Army commands, theater armies, direct reporting units, and supported units at all levels.The Army Field Support Brigade (AFSB) is a small, mission focused, highly modular organization built around a tailored modified table of organization and equipment (MTOE) and an augmentation table of distribution and allowances (TDA) structure. The AFSB is assigned to the US Army Materiel Command's (USAMC) Army Sustainment Command (ASC). AFSBs leverage USAMC national-level provider capabilities and assist in the coordination of acquisition logistics and technology (ALT) support (less medical) to the operational Army. Each AFSB can request assistance and/or support from USAMC and the Assistant Secretary of the Army for Acquisition, Logistics and Technology (ASA[ALT]) to meet specific mission requirements. When deployed in support of contingency operations, and when directed by their higher echelon, the AFSB will normally be placed under the operational control (OPCON) of the supported theater Army. This OPCON authority is normally delegated to the theater sustainment command (TSC) or expeditionary sustainment command (ESC) as appropriate.The AFSB combines various USAMC assets into a single brigade level unit that plans for and synchronizes USAMC national-level provider support to US Army forces. The AFSB also participates in the coordination and support of ALT related actions, less medical ALT support and theater support contracting, in the operational area. Although the AFSB has no direct acquisition authority, it is able to coordinate with and influence program executive office (PEO), project/product managers (PMs), or Army Test and Evaluation Command (ATEC) actions.This ATP provides an overview of AFSB organization and mission functions that apply to both contingency operations and support to units throughout the Army force generation (ARFORGEN) process.This version, Change 2, includes five chapters and two appendix:Chapter 1 – Operations and Organization OverviewChapter 2 – Subordinate OrganizationsChapter 3 – National-Level Provider FunctionsChapter 4 – Acquisition Logistics and TechnologyChapter 5 – Contract Support Coordination and Contractor ManagementAppendix A – Responsible Reset Task Force (R2TF) and Redistribution Property Assistance Team (RPAT) Techniques

Book Description
This publication, Army Techniques Publication ATP 4-90 Brigade Support Battalion April 2014, describes the brigade support battalion (BSB) role, organization and operations in support of a brigade combat team (BCT) or support brigade. ATP 4-90 is a revision of FM 4-90, Brigade Support Battalion, last published in 2010. This ATP was written for commanders, staffs and Soldiers assigned to a brigade support battalion, the brigade combat team and the support brigades. It provides relevant information to echelon above brigade sustainment organizations. ATP 4-90 provides information on the role and functions of each organization within the BSB. ATP 4-90 clarifies existing BSB doctrine. The intent is to frame the BSB in the context of its role within its supported brigade as opposed to its role within the sustainment system. This is accomplished by eliminating discussion about modular logistics and focusing on BSB operations. The updates to ATP 4-90 account for mission command philosophy, emerging Army vision and implementation of Global Combat Support System-Army Field/Tactical (GCSS-Army (F/T). Language and content of the manual are consistent with current doctrine guidelines. This is primarily accomplished by removing functional details from the chapters describing the subordinate companies and referring the reader to the appropriate functional ATP. Organization graphics are updated with known organizational changes and GCSS-Army (F/T) operations are annotated where appropriate. The aviation support battalion's role, organization and operations are consolidated into a single chapter. All text related to mission command warfighting functions and log reporting is consolidated into a single chapter which includes an expanded section on mission command systems and command post (CP) operations. There are three appendices: an echelon of support appendix, a brigade support area (BSA) appendix and a current Stryker brigade combat team appendix. Army Techniques Publication ATP 4-90 Brigade Support Battalion April 2014 contains eight chapters: Chapter 1 includes the role of the BSB, how the BSB supports the sustainment warfighting function and decisive action tasks. The chapter also includes BSB concept of support and descriptions of echelon above brigade units that would support the BSB and the BSB supported brigades. Chapter 2 lists the battalions' capabilities and BSB headquarters and staff organization. Of note are the duties of specific staff elements and how they integrate with the supported brigade's staff. There is also a section on how the BSB fits within its supported brigade. Section four includes the battlefield surveillance brigade's (BFSB) brigade support company role, organization and operations. Chapter 3 provides an overview of the distribution company and includes recent capability updates. Chapter 4 is about the field maintenance company. Chapter 5 describes the brigade support medical company (BSMC) and includes the BSMC's role, organization graphic and BSMC operations. Chapter 6 provides the role, organization and operations of the aviation support battalion (ASB). The ASB is both structured differently and operates differently from the BSB. Chapter 7 is about the forward support company (FSC). The chapter identifies the role of the FSC, the FSC organization and describes what the FSC does. The chapter also includes a discussion of the FSC commander's role and command relationship between the FSC, the BSB and the supported battalion. Chapter 8 is mission command and logistic reporting. The content includes operations process, command post operations, mission command systems available to accomplish logistic reporting and a section on logistic reporting.

Book Description
Army Techniques Publication ATP 4-44 / MCRP 3-17.7Q Water Support Operations October 2015 is the United States Army and United States Marine Corps manual for planning and executing water support for missions conducted across the full range of military operations. In the U.S. Army, water support operations are a Quartermaster Corps function, as well as a component of Army Logistics. Army Logistics is an element of the sustainment warfighting function, which provides the operational commander freedom of action, extended operational reach, and operational endurance. Water support operations include water treatment, storage and distribution. Water treatment is a field service function, while water storage and distribution are supply functions. In the U.S. Marine Corps, water support operations are a general engineering function, as well as a component of tactical-level logistics. Logistics is a warfighting function in the Marine Corps. Water support operations are critical to the U.S. Army and U.S. Marine Corps; they directly impact the depth and duration of military operations. ATP 4-44/MCRP 3-17.7Q will combine, restructure, and update information previously published in three field manuals: FM 10-52, Water Supply in Theaters of Operations, dated 11 July 1990. FM 10-52-1, Water Supply Point Equipment and Operations, dated 18 June 1991. FM 10-115, Quartermaster Water Units, dated 15 February 1989. ATP 4-44/MCRP 3-17.7Q contains numerous revisions. The title has been changed to Water Support Operations to correctly incorporate terminology from FM 4-40, Quartermaster Operations and JP 4-03, Joint Bulk Petroleum and Water Doctrine. This publication incorporates current terminology from the Army's operational concept described in ADRP 3-0, Unified Land Operations. Additional current terminology is also included from FM 4-40, Quartermaster Operations, Technical Bulletin Medical 577, Sanitary Control And Surveillance of Field Water Supplies, JP 4-03, Joint Bulk Petroleum and Water Doctrine, STANAG 2136, Requirements for Water Potability during Field Operations and in Emergency Situations, and STANAG 2885, Emergency Supply of Water in Operations. Information that has been revised from previous publications includes force structure changes, new equipment fielding, and improved planning techniques.

Book Description
Army Techniques Publication ATP 4-93 Sustainment Brigade APRIL 2016 ATP 4-93 describes the Army sustainment brigade characteristics, capabilities, organizations and operational processes. ATP 4-93 is a revision of ATP 4-93, Sustainment Brigade, last published in 2013. It is written for commanders, staffs and Soldiers at all levels, leaders and instructors at military institutions, student and doctrine and training developers. It provides relevant information for an Army sustainment brigade in support of decisive action tasks. This publication refines the description of the sustainment brigade headquarters, combat sustainment support battalion and the special troops battalion. New topics include: command and support relationships, mission command, command post activities, and sustainment brigade notional task organizations. It reflects the experiences and knowledge gained from current operations. This ATP also captures organization changes that impact the capability of the unit to accomplish its mission. Newly created and updated graphics reflect sustainment brigade current staff organizations and command post cells. The ATP explains how a sustainment brigade operates to sustain Army forces as part of Army unified land operations. Unified land operations describe how the Army operates through simultaneous offensive, defensive, and stability or defense support of civil authorities' tasks. The sustainment brigade's garrison command relationships and activities performed in support of home station are intended to maximize mission command effectiveness. The attachment of sustainment brigades to a division at home station does not change their doctrinal mission or war time requirements. Sustainment brigade headquarters, combat sustainment support battalion headquarters and their garrison subordinate units remain available for global deployment requirements. Deployed sustainment brigades are task organized to support Army forces in support of decisive action tasks. The sustainment brigade provides support and services to enable operational reach, ensure freedom of action, and prolonged endurance, to Army forces conducting decisive action tasks. The content of ATP 4-93 is consistent with Army doctrine and nested with joint logistics.
