What's inside:
This field manual (FM) addresses military police (MP) maneuver
and mobility support (MMS), area security (AS), internment and
resettlement (I/R), law and order (L&O), and police intelligence
operations (PIO) across the full spectrum of Army operations.
Although this manual includes a discussion of corps and division MP
elements, it primarily focuses on the principles of platoon operations
and the tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTP) the platoon uses
to accomplish its mission.
This FM provides the capabilities and organization of the MP,
demonstrates the flexibility and diversity of MP in adapting to any
mission throughout the full spectrum of Army operations, and
characterizes the MP as a combat-force multiplier. Additionally,
this manual identifies the fact that the Army will not conduct
operations alone and defines the role of the MP in support of joint,
multinational, and interagency operations.
The MP TTP are organized by the MP functions of MMS, AS, I/R,
LO, and PIO with supporting tasks, both individual and collective,
to help illustrate the functions.
NOTE: United States (US) policy regarding the use and
employment of antipersonnel land mines (APLs) outlined in
this FM is subject to the convention on certain conventional
weapons and executive orders (EOs). Current US policy
limits the use of non-self-destructing APLs to (1) defending
the US and its allies from armed aggression across the
Korean demilitarized zone and (2) training personnel
engaged in demining and countermine operations. The use
of the M18A1 claymore in the command-detonation mode is
not restricted under international law or EO.
