About this ebook

Part of our value-added professional format series, the Ground Combat Operations Marine Corps Field Manual (FMFM 6) provides the doctrinal basis for the planning and execution of ground combat operations for ground forces within the Marine air-ground task force (MAGTF). It establishes a common reference for operational and tactical operations routinely conducted by the ground combat element of the MAGTF.

FMFM 6 is designed for all Marine leaders regardless of military occupational specialty. This manual concentrates primarily on the ground combat element's warfighting capabilities, as the decisive maneuver force of the MAGTF, in the conduct of ground combat including maritime expeditionary operations and subsequent and sustained operations ashore. Its content pertains equally to combat support and combat service support organizations.

Marine ground forces must be prepared to conduct operations across the spectrum of war and in any operational environment. These operations can range from those conducted in war to actions that support peace. As the number and nature of operations change and expand, the role of the ground combat element (GCE) also expands and evolves. No longer can the GCE expect to be the supported element or designated the main effort during all phases of an operation. The expanded role of the GCE may require the GCE commander to accomplish his assigned mission with fewer resources than traditionally provided by the MAGTF. As a result, the demands placed on the GCE will be greater than ever before. It is critical to understanding Marine Corps doctrine for ground combat and the role of the GCE as part of the combined arms MAGTF.

As a bonus, this reproduction includes FM-1, The Army Field Manual, a capstone manual containing the vision for the Army - sold separately for $5.99. FM 1 establishes the fundamental principles for employing Landpower. The most important of these are the Army's operational concept and the fundamentals that support it. They form the foundation for all Army doctrine. All Soldiers should understand and internalize them. FM 1 describes the American profession of arms, the Army's place in it, and what it means to be a professional Soldier.
