TC 21-24 Tower and Aircraft Rappelling is the primary reference and instruction source providing techniques for all Soldiers and leaders when conducting rappelling operations. Guidelines on how to conduct safe rappelling maneuvers are also contained in this training circular. The safety notes and considerations presented provide only minimal acceptable standards.
The principal audience for TC 21-24 is all members involved with rappelling operations, whether resident or nonresident Soldiers. Rappelling is inherently dangerous. Commanders at all levels analyze completed training events to determine the degree of risk involved for Soldiers and equipment.
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)
