About

1. Purpose The purpose of this manual is twofold: to provide commanders of all arms and services and their staffs with information on the character- istics of, and the problems imposed by all types of obstacles, both artificial and natural (excluding minefields, see FM 20-32); and to present suggested solutions for their passage. 2. Scope The bulk of the manual relates to the passage of massive obstacles which can be expected to develop on a nuclear battlefield: extensive tree blowdown, mass fires resulting from thermal radiation, rubbling in highly developed and built-up areas, and cratering from surface or underground bursts.
