FM <strong>44</strong>-<strong>100</strong><br />

7-90. Normally, the comm<strong>and</strong>er one echelon above approves reorganization.<br />

Brigade comm<strong>and</strong>ers approve the reorganization of their battalions.<br />

Subordinate battalion comm<strong>and</strong>ers approve the reorganization of their<br />

batteries. If the battle comm<strong>and</strong> of the unit undergoing reorganization<br />

remains viable, comm<strong>and</strong> lines remain the same.<br />

REGENERATION<br />

7-91. Regeneration transcends normal day-to-day CSS support actions. It<br />

consists of the extraordinary actions planned to restore units to a desired<br />

level of combat or mission effectiveness. Regeneration is the rebuilding of a<br />

unit in which the mission capability has been reduced or degraded. Normally,<br />

the headquarters two levels higher are responsible for regeneration. It is<br />

accomplished through replacement of personnel <strong>and</strong> equipment,<br />

reestablishment of effective battle comm<strong>and</strong>, <strong>and</strong> conduct of essential<br />

training. During regeneration, consideration should be given to maintaining<br />

the integrity of the remaining effective squads, teams, or crews. Regenerated<br />

units need training before being reintroduced into combat.<br />

SELF DEFENSE MEASURES<br />

7-92. Since ADA forces will not be able to provide dedicated <strong>air</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>missile</strong><br />

<strong>defense</strong> for all CSS forces <strong>and</strong> assets in the area of <strong>operations</strong>, CSS<br />

organizations should be positioned to take advantage of the coverage that<br />

available <strong>air</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>missile</strong> <strong>defense</strong> forces provide. Using base cl<strong>us</strong>ters makes it<br />

possible for ADA units to cover more CSS assets than would be possible when<br />

units are dispersed throughout the AO. CSS assets identified as <strong>air</strong> <strong>and</strong><br />

<strong>missile</strong> <strong>defense</strong> priorities that do not receive dedicated support should be<br />

positioned to take advantage of the coverage provided by ADA units<br />

protecting higher priority assets. CSS units also <strong>us</strong>e passive <strong>defense</strong><br />

measures to the maximum extent possible for self-<strong>defense</strong>.<br />

7-93. CSS personnel <strong>and</strong> <strong>air</strong> defenders share responsibility for force<br />

protection of CSS complexes. The CSS comm<strong>and</strong>er develops <strong>air</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>missile</strong><br />

priorities, which are integrated into the theater’s priorities. The<br />

AMDCOORD coordinates the employment of available <strong>air</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>missile</strong><br />

<strong>defense</strong> assets to protect the maximum number of priority assets. Defensive<br />

fires provided by ADA, along with the self-<strong>defense</strong> measures employed by<br />

CSS units, combine to defeat enemy <strong>air</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>missile</strong> attacks directed against<br />

theater CSS.<br />
