Reconnaissance Handbook (2002)

This supplemental text will provide you, the scout, with a standardized means by which to operate effectively. The Reconnaissance Handbook serves as both an SOP and a leader’s guide for those that serve in reconnaissance or cavalry organizations. As such, it acts as a quick-reference guide that focuses on the principles of reconnaissance platoon operations, the tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTP) the platoon uses to operate in a theater of operations, and how the platoon acquires information for its higher commander. The term “reconnaissance platoon” refers to all forms of the scout platoon, whether it is part of an armor or infantry battalion, a cavalry squadron, a brigade reconnaissance troop (BRT), or a reconnaissance, surveillance, and target acquisition (RSTA) squadron. References to the “recce platoon” in this supplemental text apply specifically to reconnaissance platoons organic to the recce troops of the RSTA squadron. The Reconnaissance Handbook is designed to supplement both the Reconnaissance Platoon field manual (FM 3-20.98) and the mission training plan (ARTEP 17-97F-10­MTP).

The Reconnaissance Handbook will assist you in improving and maintaining your scouts’ readiness.  You may adapt any part of it as needed to fit your unit’s mission requirements.  This handbook, however, is not a substitute for good tactical training. Use it to supplement and enhance your training program as you prepare for combat. As a minimum, all leaders should maintain a copy of the Reconnaissance Handbook at all times.
