This aid is published to assist Civil Affairs (CA) soldiers as they conduct CA support to special operations forces (SOF) Army, joint, and coalition forces. It is critical that CA elements at all echelons properly plan and execute their missions to enhance the supported commander's successful mission accomplishment. In today's operational environment, the military decision-making process (MDMP) is vital to allowing the commander to make informed decisions to maximize success with minimum risk. Never in history has the role of CA in MDMP been more critical than now. Planning in all phases and at all levels of the operation will be enhanced through the use of this aid. From the basic principles of CA planning through determination of measures of effectiveness (MOEs), this graphic training aid (GTA) outlines and provides examples of successful CA planning. This GTA provides valuable time-saving information on how to conduct a quick but valuable assessment of the operational area to assist the commander in making informed decisions. Incorporating SPHERE Project and United Nations Office of the High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) emergency indicators and standards into emergency humanitarian assistance (HA) assessments will make those assessments more accurate, timely, and resource efficient. The interaction between CA personnel and agency representatives has never been more important than it is today. This GTA contains valuable advice on how to interact with these organizations and with local government officials. CA forces are combat multipliers with unique capabilities to influence and support the commander's mission accomplishment in war and peace. Unless this publication states otherwise, masculine nouns and pronouns do not refer exclusively to men.

Field Manual (FM) 3-57, Civil Affairs Operations, provides the doctrinal basis for the conduct of operations in support of the joint force commander's (JFC's) civil-military operations (CMO) concept. It provides Army commanders with the information necessary for the integration of Civil Affairs (CA) capability in support of unified land operations.FM 3-57 clarifies the role of CA forces in support of CMO with regard to the missions, employment, support requirements, capabilities, and limitations of these forces. CA forces support missions in every theater, in peace and war, throughout unified land operations. CA forces are a combat multiplier for every commander.CA forces are one of the primary resources a commander has to assist him in dealing with the complex and ever-changing civil component of the operational environment. CA forces are trained, organized, and equipped to plan, execute, and assess the JFC's concept for CMO. They are essential elements in the support of the commander by virtue of their area and linguistic orientation, cultural awareness, training in military to host nation (HN) advisory activities, and civilian professional skills that parallel common government functions.Although written primarily to assist the Army Service component command (ASCC), Army corps, Army divisions, brigade combat teams (BCTs), and maneuver enhancement brigades (MEBs) with the integration of Civil Affairs operations (CAO) in planning, preparing for, executing, and assessing unified land operations, this FM is applicable for joint force operations as well. The commander must always consider the engagement of the civil component within the area of operations (AO).

This Army tactics, techniques, and procedures (ATTP) reinforces the fundamentals of mission command established in field manual (FM) 3-0, Operations; FM 5-0, The Operations Process; and FM 6-0, Mission Command. Whereas the above manuals focus on the fundamentals of mission command, this manual provides commanders and staff officers with tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTP) essential for the exercise of mission command.This is a new Army publication. It includes many of the appendices currently found in FM 5-0 and FM 6-0 that addressed the "how to" of mission command. By consolidating this material into a single publication, Army leaders now have a single reference to assist them with TTP associated with planning, preparing for, executing, and continually assessing operations. This ATTP also enables the Army to better focus the material in future editions of FMs 5-0 and 6-0 on the fundamentals of the operations process and mission command, respectively.
