| Description: |
This manual
guides US Army forces (ARFOR) functioning at the operational
level of war in concert with joint, multinational, and/or
interagency organizations. It describes how the Army service
component commander (ASCC), previously known as the theater
army commander, applies the FM 100-5 fundamentals to ARFOR
operating within a theater of operations. This is the Army's
manual on operational art focused at the operational
level of war: the link among theater strategy, campaign plans,
and tactics and the bridge between theaterwide campaigns and
localized battles and engagements.
