Soldier's Manual of Common Tasks - Skill Level 2, 3, and 4

This manual is one of a series of soldier training publications that support individual training. Commanders, trainers, and soldiers will use this manual and STP 21-1-SMCT, Soldier's Manual of Common Tasks, Skill Level 1, to plan, conduct, sustain, and evaluate individual training of common tasks in units.

This manual contains a common task training plan for skill levels (SL) 1 through 4 and task summaries for SL 2 through SL 4 critical common tasks that support unit wartime missions. This manual is the only authorized source for these common tasks. Task summaries in this manual supersede any common tasks appearing in MOS-specific soldier's manuals.

Training support information, such as reference materials, is also included. Trainers and first-line supervisors should ensure SL 2 through SL 4 soldiers have access to this publication in their work areas, unit learning centers, and unit libraries.

This manual applies to both active and Reserve Component soldiers.
