FM 6-0, Commander and Staff Organization and Operations, provides commanders and their staffs with tactics and procedures for organizing and operating their command and control (C2) system.
The principal audience for FM 6-0 includes Army commanders, leaders, and unit staffs (including officers, noncommissioned officers, and Soldiers).
FM 6-0 aims to serve several purposes. First, it provides commanders and staffs with many of the tactics and procedures associated with establishing their C2 systems. In conjunction with FM 5-0, Planning and Orders Production, FM 6-0 provides detailed information on the people, processes, networks, and command posts that assists commanders in exercising C2. Second, this manual provides multiple templates and examples of products that commanders and staffs routinely use in the conduct of operations.
This book is a “Mini” (half the size of a piece of paper).
A popular size to carry anywhere (briefcase, large pocket, purse) but the print is large enough for easy reading. The binding is with coil, allowing easy flipping of pages without jamming.
The color covers are laminated for weather protection with black and white inside printing.
(A BIG size version (8 1/2 inch by 11 inch, the same size as a regular sheet of paper) is on this website too)
