Overview

This manual focuses on EOD techniques which have either been developed or changed significantly over the past 11 years. Modularity has created exponential growth of EOD forces in an extremely short amount of time. Rules of allocation for EOD companies have continually changed to adapt to the current fight and ensure that EOD forces remain relevant. This publication provides Army EOD the opportunity to capture into a single document the most successful techniques available to perform EOD tasks and effectively complete missions. ATP 4-32 is a sole source documented explanation of EOD mission sets throughout the full range of military operations. The publication covers support provided to combatant commanders on counter terrorism and irregular warfare. EOD forces are a key enabler to deter and defeat aggression, project power despite anti- access/area denial challenges, counter weapons of mass destruction, and maintain a safe, secure and effective nuclear deterrent. 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 distills public laws and regulatory guidance that specifically direct the Services EOD mission sets and provides coherent Army doctrine for EOD in unified land operations. ATP 4-32 provides doctrinal guidance for EOD commanders and Soldiers responsible for all EOD operations. Commanders and staffs of Army headquarters serving as joint task force or multinational headquarters should also refer to applicable joint, multiservice or multinational doctrine concerning EOD operations. Trainers and educators throughout the Army will also use this manual. Commanders, staffs, and subordinates ensure their decisions and actions comply with applicable United States, international, and in some cases, host-nation laws and regulations. Commanders at all levels ensure their Soldiers operate in accordance with the law of war and the rules of engagement. (See Field Manual [FM] 27- 10). ATP 4-32 applies to the Active Army, the Army National Guard (ARNG)/Army National Guard of the United States (ARNGUS), and the United States Army Reserve (USAR) unless otherwise stated.
