As individuals rise into leadership positions, they can refer to the book to see how it reflects their responsibilities at every level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAt higher levels of professional military education, you may have a block of time to discuss the material from different perspectives. Rather than learning the material in the book, you might think through, \u2018How am I taking the material in FM 1 and making it real in my unit?\u2019 Or \u2018How is FM 1 serving as the foundation for how I coach, counsel and mentor?\u2019\u201d Creed said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The primer is a companion piece to Army Doctrine Publication 1, \u201cThe Army,\u201d a denser description of the service written for more experienced individuals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The directorate is shipping print copies of the primer to Cadet Command, Basic Officer Leader Courses and Officer Candidate Schools for the graduating classes of 2025 and 2026, Creed said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But anyone can download an electronic copy from the <a href=\"https:\/\/armypubs.army.mil\/ProductMaps\/PubForm\/Details.aspx?PUB_ID=1031029\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"\" title=\"https:\/\/armypubs.army.mil\/ProductMaps\/PubForm\/Details.aspx?PUB_ID=1031029\">Army Publication Directorate website<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The 10 chapters are divided into three main sections. The first section discusses the importance of a warrior mindset and preparing all soldiers for battle. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe are all part of a team and need to have certain basic skills and attitudes, regardless of where we happen to serve,\u201d Creed said. \u201cWe do so as a member of the profession of arms, which is different than the ancient idea of warriors fighting as individuals for themselves and personal glory.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The section ends with a discussion on leadership and understanding the responsibilities of being a leader and a good follower.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The second section lays out what the Army is for, what the Army does and what it\u2019s composed of in terms of organizations and people. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The final section discusses soldiers\u2019 obligations as members of the joint force and when they operate with allies and partners. It ends with what the Army owes its civilian leadership and fellow American citizens, Creed said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Field Manual 1, \u201cThe Army: A Primer to Our
