This manual incorporates explosive ordnance disposal (EOD) doctrine in support of multi-domain operations such as large scale combat operations, but also includes lessons learned from operations in Iraq and Afghanistan. Rules of allocation for EOD companies have evolved to the current threat and ensure that EOD forces enable lethality.

ATP 4-32 is the capstone EOD doctrinal publication which addresses the full range of military operations including support to combatant commanders on counter terrorism and irregular warfare.

EOD forces are a key enabler to deter and defeat aggression, project power, defeat anti-access and area denial challenges, and counter weapons of mass destruction. EOD also supports civil and federal authorities in the defense of the homeland. Most stability, counter-insurgency, humanitarian, and disaster relief operations will require EOD support. This ATP provides Army doctrine for EOD in multi-domain operations.

ATP 4-32 applies to the Active Army, the Army National Guard/Army National Guard of the United States, and the United States Army Reserve unless otherwise stated.

This book is a "BIG" (the size of a regular piece of paper) size - Coil binding is used to allow for easy page flipping with no binding.

This website also has this book in "mini" size (half the size of a regular sheet of paper). A popular size to carry anywhere (briefcase, large pocket, purse) but the print is large enough for easy reading.
