The Small Unit Tactics Smart Book:
Leader's Reference Guide to Conducting Tactical Operations Tactics is the employment and ordered arrangement of forces in relation to each other. Through tactics, commanders use combat power to accomplish missions. The tactical-level commander employs combat power in the conduct of engagements and battles. Establishing a common frame of reference, doctrine provides a menu of practical options based on experience. It provides an authoritative guide for leaders and Soldiers but requires original applications that adapt it to circumstances. The Small Unit Tactics SMARTbook translates and bridges operational-level doctrine into tactical application - in the form of tactics, techniques and procedures - and provides the "how to" at the small-unit level as a ready reference at the battalion, company, platoon, squad and fire team levels. |
