B-GL-309-003/FT-001, The Infantry Section and Platoon in Battle (1996)

[McG]

Does anyone have an electornic copy of this document, and is there a reason that it has never made it onto the AEL?

 

[Michael OLeary]

I believe it's been under revision and pending reissue for about the past 20 years.

 

[McG]

Despite that, I would expect that the Army would want to make some reference available on this important subject.  Is the 1996 edition so misguided that it is better to provide no reference at all?

 

[241]

Have you checked on the DSECO (Not sure of the accronym will post the correct one when I am at work tomorrow) it is in the options when you click on the search on the left hand side of the AEL screen (only available from a DWAN computer) I have found a lot of pubs there when I couldn't find them on the AEL

 

[McG]

Is that the one where I can look up that the new number is B-GL-392-002/FP-001  (still the 1996 book) but am told that the book is unavailable?

 

[241]

Sorry, didn't even get a chance to get on a computer at work today, the site I am talking about is normally scanned versions of the pubs and you can search by B-GL or by the name of the pub, I wrote myself a note not to come back to the shacks until I check the proper name and/or get a link to what I am referring to tomorrow

 

[aesop081]

you are talking about the CF publication Depot  site

 

[241]

Yeah I am here is a link, http://otgmati000041.ottawa-hull.mil.ca/custom/cfpd/searchMain_en.htm  I have found that there are a bunch of pubs not on the AEL but they are on here for example here is the link for the pub in question  http://otgmati000041.ottawa-hull.mil.ca/servlet/searchCFPD

**EDIT**  The second link does not work but I did find the pub in question, just search for the B-GL-309-003/FT-001 **EDIT**\
                    Also that site is only available on the DWAN computers

241,
Thank you for the links.  It did take a little bit of playing & navigating to get the book, but it was in there.

cheers

MCG or anyone  can you email me the PAM if possible? Currently I don't have DIN access to get it.

Go talk to a clerk or some on at your unit with DIN access go to the AEL and type in the B-GL- and then print what you need or save on a CD if you can.
