What does TC 3-22.9 provide to Soldiers?

TC 3-22.9 specifically focuses on the individual training and qualifications for Soldiers with regard to their assigned weapons, particularly the rifle and carbine. It details the operational capabilities, maintenance, and proper handling of these firearms, ensuring that Soldiers are well-equipped with critical information necessary for effective use in various situations. The emphasis on understanding a weapon's function is essential for ensuring safety, accuracy, and efficiency in combat scenarios.

While strategies for mental resilience, physical training instructions, and leadership development are indeed important components of overall military training, they are not the primary focus of TC 3-22.9. This training circular is dedicated to enhancing Soldiers’ proficiency with their weapons, making knowledge of their function and capabilities a top priority for all personnel involved.
