description: This electronic book on CD-ROM presents a complete reproduction of an important U.S. Army Field Manual, FM 34-52, Intelligence Interrogation. This manual was in the news late in 2005 when Senator John McCain proposed an amendment to the Defense Department Authorization bill mandating that interrogations of detainees in military custody conform to the FM 34-52. In addition, there is a complete reproduction of the World Weapons Guide - Army OPFOR Worldwide Equipment Guide. The OPFOR guide is a spectacular, fully-illustrated guide to weapons organized by categories of equipment. Selected weapons systems and equipment are included in the categories of infantry weapons, infantry vehicles, reconnaissance vehicles, tanks and assault vehicles, antitank, artillery, air defense, engineer and logistic systems, and aircraft. The Intelligence Interrogation manual provides doctrinal guidance, techniques, and procedures governing employment of interrogators as human intelligence (HUMINT) collection assets in support of the commander's intelligence needs. It outlines the interrogator's role with the intelligence collection effort and the supported unit's day-to-day operations. Details are presented on how interrogation assets accomplish their assigned collection mission. Material in this manual applies to operations in low-, mid-, and high-intensity conflicts. Principles outlined are valid under conditions involving use of electronic warfare (EW) or nuclear, biological, or chemical (NBC) weapons. This manual is intended for use by interrogators as well as well as commanders, staff officers, and military intelligence (MI) personnel charged with the responsibility of the interrogation collection effort. Interrogation is the HUMINT subdiscipline responsible for MI exploitation of enemy personnel and documents to answer the supported specific information requirements (SIR). These SIR responses, along with those of other MI disciplines, are correlated to satisfy the force commander’s priority intelligence requirements (PIR) and intelligence requirements (IR). MI interrogation units are a proven and valued collection asset. This manual incorporates the operational experiences and lessons learned. It builds upon existing doctrine and moves interrogation into the 21st century.
