What's inside:

This manual provides doctrine, tactics, techniques, and procedures on how long-range surveillance units perform combat operations. Long-range surveillance units include long-range surveillance companies at corps, and long-range surveillance detachments in mechanized, infantry, airborne, air assault, and light infantry divisions. This manual is aligned with Army operations doctrine (FM 100-5). It is not a stand-alone publication. A knowledge of FM 7-8 is essential.

The primary audiences for this manual are corps and division commanders, corps and division G3s and G2s, military intelligence battalion commanders that have subordinate long-range surveillance units, long-range surveillance company and detachment commanders, platoon leaders, platoon sergeants, and team leaders. Secondary audiences include other infantry, armor, field artillery, and aviation leaders and staff officers, special operations forces leaders and staff officers, and service schools.

LSRU leaders should use this manual in developing methodologies for training, planning, coordinating, and executing LRS missions. By adhearing to doctrinally sound methodologies, leaders signifigantly increase the unit's chance for mission success.

Tough, realistic training is the key to successful execution. The specifics of how to train the LRS company, detachment, and team are in the ARTEP 7-93-MTP. ARTEP 7-93-MTP should also be used as a supplement in training LRS teams. These ARTEPs provide the tasks, conditions, and standards for training, and outline how to integrate individual, leader, and soldier tasks.
