Description ▲
A great value! Two military manuals combine into one book. If you purchase both books separate you will pay more for the books plus shipping cost. Urban Operations: This manual provides the analytical tools for evaluating an urban operation to determine if the operation is necessary for overall mission success. It also provides the means to understanding and determining the impacts of the urban environment on military operations and provides information on managing, taking advantage of, and mitigating the effects of those impacts as appropriate. Chapter Contents: The Urban Outlook; Understanding the Urban Environment; Understanding the Urban Threat; Understanding the Urban Environment's Effects on Warfighting Functions and Tactics; Contemplating Urban Operations; Foundations for Urban Operations; Urban Offensive Operations; Urban Defensive Operations; Urban Stability and Civil Support Operations; Urban Sustainment; Appendix: Siege of Beirut: An Illustration of the Fundamentals of Urban Operations; An Urban Focus to the Intelligence Preparation of the Battlefield; Operations in Somalia: Applying the Urban Operational Framework to Stability Operations; Joint and Multinational Urban Operations Marine Rifle Marksmanship: All Marines share a common war fighting belief: "Every Marine a rifleman." This simple credo reinforces the belief that all Marines are forged from a common experience, share a common set of values, and are trained as members of an expeditionary force in readiness. The Marine rifleman of the next conflict will be as in past conflicts: among the first to confront the enemy and the last to hang his weapon in the rack after the conflict is won. Areas/Chapter covered here in great detail are: Introduction to Rifle Marksmanship; Introduction to the Service Rifles; Weapons Handling; Fundamentals of Marksmanship; Rifle Firing Positions; Use of Cover and Concealment; Rifle Presentation; Effects of Weather; Zeroing; Engagement Techniques.
