Book excerpt: Field manual (FM) 31-20-3 is the third in a series of tactics, techniques, and procedures manuals that expand on the principles developed in the Special Forces (SF) operations manual, FM 31-20. They provide information and guidance to SF commanders, staffs, and operations personnel at battalion, company, and team levels. This manual will help them prepare for or conduct foreign internal defense (FID) operations across the range of military operations described in FM 100-5. The purpose of this manual is to serve as a general guide to its users. It does not obviate the need for well-written and practiced standing operating procedures (SOPs). Department of Defense (DOD) defines FID operations as the participation by civilian and military agencies of a government in any of the action programs taken by another government to free and protect its society from subversion, lawlessness, and insurgency-Joint Pub 1-02.
