The United States Army, Europe, must be prepared to fight with or without nuclear weapons. In the next war we fight it may be that nuclear weapons will be used from the first, or it may be that the war will start using only conventional weapons, and it may last for days before the first nuclear weapons are used. You are a combat leader, but are you ready for nuclear combat? Contents include what to expect, what to do, cases for group discussion (infantry company on the 'forward edge of the battle area'- FEBA, infantry platoon on FEBA, armor team in reserve, artillery battery, and task force on FEBA), and how to train.
