Training Circular TC 3-90.1 Armor and Rifle Company Team Collective Task Publication August 2013

This Training Circular, TC 3-90.1 Armor and Rifle Company Team Collective Task Publication August 2013, is a tool commanders can use during training strategy development. The products in this TC are developed to support the company team’s mission-essential task list (METL) training strategy. This TC provides guidance for commanders, staff, leaders, and Soldiers who plan, prepare, execute, and assess training of the armor and rifle company team. The primary target audience for this publication is the company commander, and other leaders within an armor and rifle company team. The secondary audience consists of training developers who develop training support materials for professional military education (PME). This publication applies to the Active Army, the Army National Guard (ARNG), Army National Guard of the United States (ARNGUS), and the United States Army Reserve (USAR) unless otherwise stated. The proponent for this publication is the U.S. Army Training and Doctrine Command (TRADOC). Armor and Infantry rifle company teams are organized to close with the enemy by fire and maneuver to destroy, capture, or to repel the enemy’s assault by fire, close combat, or counterattack. However, they are equally suited to perform stability or civil support operations independently or as part of a combined arms battalion. The company team must retain the flexibility to conduct all four types of operations: offensive, defensive, and stability or civil support simultaneously if required. Because of its mix of weaponry, personnel, and supporting elements, the company team is one of the most versatile combat assets on the modern battlefield.
