Atp 3-37.10 Base Camps

ATP 3-37.10 is a compilation of tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTP) found in doctrine, lessons learned, and other reference material that provides an integrated, systematic approach to base camps. It codifies the recent efforts of the Base Camp Integrated Capabilities Development Team as part of the Army capabilities-based assessment process and serves commanders and their staffs as a comprehensive how-to guide for performing all activities of the base camp life cycle during deployments.

This manual acknowledges that each base camp will be unique, based on mission requirements and the theater-specific facility allowances and construction standards that apply. Therefore, this manual relies on its user's ability to apply experience and good judgment in incorporating the base camp principles and procedures that are provided here, along with the wisdom to seek out the necessary expertise where needed in generating options and implementing best practices that result in efficient and effective base camps.
