ATP 3-21.50 provides perspective on how Infantry small-unit commanders and subordinate leaders plan, prepare, execute, and assess missions in an operational environment characterized by high altitudes, rapidly changing climatic conditions, and rugged terrain. This environment challenges all the elements of combat power.
