Camouflage Concealment and Decoys: The Official U.S. Army Tactics Techniques and Procedures Manual ATTP 3-34.39 (FM 20-3)/MCRP 3-17.6A

This Army Tactics Techniques and Procedures (ATTP) is intended to help company-level leaders understand the principles and techniques of camouflage concealment and decoys (CCD). To remain viable all units must apply CCD to personnel and equipment. Ignoring a threats ability to detect friendly operations on the battlefield is shortsighted and dangerous. Friendly units enhance their survivability capabilities if they are well versed in CCD principles and techniques. CCD is equal in importance to marksmanship maneuver and mission. It is an integral part of a soldiers duty. CCD encompasses individual and unit efforts such as movement light and noise discipline; letter control; dispersal; and deception operations. Each soldiers actions must contribute to the units overall CCD posture to maximize effectiveness.
