Casualty evacuation?

Only one of the most underrated and critical ATPs in the @USArmyDoctrine bookshelf.

So, hear me out, Doctrinistas. ATP 4-02.13 is a leadership manual. Here’s why.

1/🧶 For a book that is only about 80 pages of content, once you factor for the “This page intentionally left blank” stuff, this book speaks right to the thing that builds trust between soldiers and leaders: knowing someone is going to care for you at the moment you need it most. 2/

It’s Friday. I’m rocking my Class Bs for @USArmyMCCoE and #FancyPantsFriday. I’ve got some coffee. I’ve got some books.

It’s time for lunch hour doctrine, and some surprise LPD!

Why are pages “left intentionally blank” in certain @USArmyDoctrine pubs?

1/ Image There is no deep meaning behind this. No massive government secret or deep state conspiracy. No hidden treasure trove of historical military tradition.

None of that.

Sorry to disappoint you.

Let’s set the stage to honestly talk about one of the most critical books for any Soldier to read, ATP 4-25.12, Unit Field Sanitation Teams.

Show of hands, Doctrinistas. Who has pooped in a bag next to a military vehicle somewhere in the Californian desert?

1/ Field sanitation IS field craft. It’s not just about pooping in a bag.

This is a leadership book, and I’m going to make a case for why every soldier should get as familiar with this book as they do any other branch specific technique publication in their doctrinal kit bag. 2/
