Doctrine Primer
ADP 1-01 explains what doctrine is, what it is not, and how the Army organizes it. It walks through the publication hierarchy, how terms and symbols are approved, and how doctrine relates to policy and to tactics, techniques, and procedures. Start here if the ADP, FM, ATP, TC alphabet soup does not yet make sense.

The Army: A Primer to Our Profession of Arms
FM 1 is a short primer on what it means to belong to the profession of arms and what Soldiers owe each other, civilian leadership, and the country. It was published in May 2025 as a standalone read for Soldiers rather than a replacement for ADP 1. It is written to be read cover to cover in one sitting.
