Base development for contingency operations.
No full textThis publication provides information, policies, and guidelines to assist in the planning and execution of base development in overseas areas of contingency operations. A substantial portion of the contents reflects experience gained in Southeast Asia during the period 1965-1968. For this reason, numerous examples of procedures, controls and administrative processes from that experience have been included as appendices. While it is unlikely that all guidelines and policies contained herein will be completely relevant in any future contingency situation, the basic principles of base development planning and execution as outlined should continue to prevail. The concepts, methods and objectives of base development are set forth in existing directives and publications of the DoD, Joint Chiefs of Staff and Military Departments, as listed in the bibliography. This publication emphasizes only those aspects of the total base development process which the cited experience indicates require clarification or guidance. It is intended that the contents be advisory rather than directive in nature. They do not supplant provisions of existing directives or regulations. Chapters include: general; development of requirements; program submission; resource selection; program execution; functional components; funding/costing; reports; and mobile situation. This document also includes multiple appendices
