Book excerpt: This publication, Army Techniques Publication ATP 3-21.21 SBCT Infantry Battalion March 2016, provides doctrinal framework for techniques for the Stryker brigade combat team (SBCT) Infantry battalion. This ATP provides employment of the SBCT Infantry battalion in decisive action. This publication provides doctrinal guidance for commanders, staff, and leaders who are responsible for planning, preparing, executing, and assessing operations of the SBCT Infantry battalion. This publication serves as an authoritative reference for personnel developing, materiel and force structure, institutional and unit training, and standard operating procedures (SOP) for SBCT Infantry battalion operations. ATP 3-21.21 discusses the techniques used by the Infantry battalion while conducting missions. These are techniques and are not prescriptive. Mission, enemy, terrain and weather, troops and support available, time available, and civil considerations (METT-TC) condition will dictate how the battalion commander accomplishes his tasks. This manual provides the commander and his subordinates with an array of methods that can be used or modified. ATP 3-21.21 has nine chapters and one appendix. The chapters consist of an organizational chapter and a chapter on offense, defense, and stability operations. Defense support to civilian authorities and defense support of civil authority (DSCA) is not covered. Throughout the chapters, tactical enabling operations are included in the discussions. The chapters and the appendix use examples and illustrations to show techniques that can be used. Doctrine is included only to the extent of understanding the context and relationships between techniques.
