FIRE SUPPORT OFFICER: A fire support officer is the field artillery officer from the operational  to tactical level responsible for advising the supported commander and assisting the senior fires  officer of the organization on fires functions and fire support. 

Fires and movement, by definition, combine to create true maneuver at the lowest echelons. When we employ forces through movement in combination with fires to achieve a position of advantage in respect to the enemy, we are creating forward momentum on the battlefield.

  Often, the ability to integrate fires effectively becomes the lynchpin for a successful operation at the National Training Center (NTC).

There is no question that fires will be one key to success when it comes to facing a near-peer threat on the battlefield. That is what we have been training for at the NTC. The fires observer coach/trainers (OC/Ts) here at the NTC have been committed to ensuring brigade combat teams optimize fires within their formation. This publication is a compilation of products used over the last couple of years to sustain/increase fire superiority over potential enemies. Although not all units are able to train at the NTC, we offer this publication to embrace the fires warfighting function to prepare for the reality of combat.
