CHAPTER 1 ADMINISFRATION, GENERAL AND TERRITORIAL Section I. GENERAL 1. Purpose, Scope, and Organization a. Purpose.

All military activity is divided into two interlocking fields: strategy and tactics (or combat operations) and administration (or service operations). These fields are separated in field service regulations only for convenience of discus- sion. Field service regulations are field manuals which give the basic principles and regulations governing the operations of large units, territorial commands, and combined branches and services. c. Scope. This manual contains fundamentals of Army administration for division, corps, army, and the communications zone, and provides general reference to administration at higher levels of theaters of operations.
