Marine Corps Techniques Publication MCTP 12-10A (Formerly MCWP 3-35.1) Mountain Warfare Publication 2 May 2016, is a reference for all unit commanders and their staffs (trained or untrained in mountain warfare) and all leaders from the company level through regiment or brigade for use in operations that occur in mountainous terrain, snow, or cold weather. This publication is designed to be used with Marine Corps Reference Publication (MCRP) 3-35.1A, Small Unit Leader's Guide to Mountain Warfare Operations; MCRP 3-35.1B, Mountain Leader's Guide to Winter Operations; MCRP 3-35.1C, Mountain Leader's Guide to Mountain Warfare Operations; and MCRP 3-35.1D, Cold Region Operations. These publications cover a broad range of unit planning considerations that can be used across a range of military operations. This publication references formal individual and collective mountain warfare training programs available within the Department of Defense. Because of the rapid turnover in personnel, operating tempo, multitude of training commitments, and constraint of training resources for these environments, the Marine Corps Mountain Warfare Training Center cannot train all Marines. Therefore, this publication-used in conjunction with MCRP 3-35.1A, MCRP 3-35.1B, MCRP 3-35.1C, and MCRP 3-35.1D-identifies the skills that Marines need to be successful in mountainous, snow, or cold weather environments. During combat, these publications provide Marines with the doctrinal references they need to augment the instruction they receive from their unit's qualified mountain leaders. This publication supersedes Fleet Marine Force Manual (FMFM) 7-29, Mountain Operations, dated January 1980; FMFM 7-21, Tactical Fundamentals for Cold Weather Operations, dated September 1992; and FMFM 7-22, Tactical Fundamentals for Aviation in Cold Weather Operations, dated May 1991.

The manual describes the general strategy for the U.S. Marines but it is beneficial for not only every Marine to read but concepts on leadership can be gathered to lead a business to a family. If you want to see what make Marines so effective this book is a good place to start.

Marine Corps Reference Publication MCRP 12-10A.1, Small Unit Leader's Guide to Mountain Warfare Operations 2 May 2016 is a reference for all Marine leaders (team through company) to use when conducting operations in mountainous terrain, snow, cold weather, and/or high altitude. This publication is to be used in conjunction with the Marine Corps Warfighting Publication 3-35.1, Mountain Warfare Operations, and its other associated MCRPs 3-35.1B, Mountain Leader's Guide to Winter Operations; 3-35.1C, Mountain Leader's Guide to Mountain Warfare Operations; and 3-35.1D, Cold Region Operations. The series covers a broad spectrum of individual and small unit tactics, techniques, and procedures across all six warfighting functions. Topics include the environment, specialized clothing and equipment, weapons considerations, patrolling considerations, route selection and navigation, basic avalanche hazard assessment and mitigation, crossing streams/ice, snowshoeing, winter camouflage, logistics, fire support, helicopter operations, and casualty evacuation. It stresses only the skills necessary for Marines to function in combat. Because of the rapid turnover in personnel, operational tempo, and the multitude of training commitments, the Marine Corps Mountain Warfare Training Center cannot train all Marines or units. In combat, Marines may need to learn through doctrinal references that are augmented with instruction from their unit's qualified summer and winter mountain leaders. This MCRP gives them that capability. This publication supersedes MCRP 3-35.1A, Small Unit Leader's Guide to Cold Weather Operations, dated 16 November 1990.

This publication describes the theory and philosophy of military planning as practiced by the U.S. Marine Corps. The intent is to describe how we can prepare effectively for future action when the future is uncertain and unpredictable. In so doing, this publication provides all Marines a conceptual framework for planning in peace, in crisis, or in war. This approach to planning is based on our common understanding of the nature of war and on our warfighting philosophy of maneuver warfare as described in Marine Corps Doctrinal Publication (MCDP) 1, Warfighting.

Marine Corps Reference Publication MCRP 3-20.3 (Formerly MCWP 3-27) Operational Support Airlift 2 May 2016 Marine Corps Warfighting Publication (MCWP) 3-27, Operational Support Airlift, provides a framework for the integration and effective employment of operational support assets during war and times of crisis, and it covers all aspects of operational support airlift (OSA), with emphasis on support for Marine air-ground task force operations. Operational support airlift doctrine is based on a common understanding of Marine Corps warfighting philosophy as defined in our doctrinal publications and concepts and is grounded in experience. Marine Corps OSA detachments have been deployed in support of Marines in Operation Iraqi Freedom, Operation Enduring Freedom, and Combined Joint Task Force-Horn of Africa since 2003. The lessons learned from these operations have been incorporated into this publication. It applies across a range of military operations- from humanitarian assistance to major campaigns. MCWP 3-27 is meant for Marines at all levels of command in the Marine Corps operating forces and the supporting establishment as a guide to using OSA as an enhancement to their mission. This publication defines OSA, highlights capabilities and limitations of OSA, recommends structure for command and control of OSA, and discusses OSA employment and scheduling.

Marine Corps Reference Publication MCRP 12-10A.3 (Formerly MCRP 3-35.1C) Mountain Leader's Guide to Mountain Warfare Operations 2 May 2016 Marine Corps Reference Publication 3-35.1C, Mountain Leader's Guide to Mountain Warfare Operations, is a reference for trained summer mountain leaders to use during operations in complex, compartmentalized, mountainous, high altitude, alpine, and glaciated terrain. This manual is not exhaustive and must be used together with the mountain warfare operations doctrinal series, as duplication of material is being avoided and target audiences vary. This publication covers terrain; weather; rope skills; rope systems; climbing; fixed ropes; rappelling; casualty evacuation; planning considerations across all six warfighting functions; chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear considerations; glacier operations; and processes used to guide units through mountainous/alpine terrain. It focuses on a standard method of instruction and stresses only the skills necessary for Marines to go into combat. Because of rapid turnover in personnel, the many units that train annually, the multitude of training commitments, and the short season, the Marine Corps Mountain Warfare Training Center cannot train all personnel or units. In combat, Marines may receive instruction from their unit's qualified summer mountain leaders. This publication specifically supports the mountain leader's ability to provide that instruction.

Marine Corps Reference Publication MCRP 3-20.5 (Formerly MCWP 3-42.1) Unmanned Aircraft System Operations 2 May 2016, defines how and why unmanned aircraft systems (UASs) are operated in support of the Marine air-ground task force (MAGTF). This publication provides UAS employment guidance and considerations to commanders, their staffs, and UAS personnel. It addresses planning and coordination requirements, employment concepts, command and support relationships, request procedures, and unmanned aircraft capabilities. Combat in Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom has emphasized the need to improve timeliness and accuracy of battlefield information and derived intelligence to improve the essential fire and maneuver capabilities of Marine ground forces in all operational environments. Traditional MAGTF fires and emerging capabilities that can influence and shape the operating environment must be available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and under all weather conditions. They must be able to rapidly and precisely engage fleeting opportunities found in a range of military operations while supporting the concept of maneuver warfare. Unmanned aircraft systems are the persistent link and combat multiplier that allow the MAGTF to improve its situational awareness and achieve timely combined arms effectiveness. Unmanned aircraft systems include the necessary equipment, data communications links, and personnel to control and employ an unmanned aircraft. Unmanned aircraft can be a rotary-wing, fixed-wing, or lighter-than-air aircraft capable of flight without an on-board crew. For the purposes of this publication, all unmanned aircraft will be considered recoverable, even if they are occasionally expended during actual combat operations. Unmanned aircraft may be operated remotely or autonomously and can carry a lethal or nonlethal payload. This publication supersedes MCWP 3-42.1, Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Operations, dated 14 August 2003.
