     b.  Purpose and authority for the preparation and revisions of
Tables of Organization and Equipment (TOE).

        (1)  Cyclic review in accordance with AR 71-32.

        (2)  This review and revision incorporates concept changes,
updates manpower requirementscriteria (MARC), and applies
incremental TOE development procedures.

        (3)  This version of the TOE has been prepared in accordance
with the provisions of current TOE development regulations and
guidance.

        (4)  All Equipment Readiness Codes in these TOE have been
reviewed to ensure strict compliance with criteria in AR 220-1,
Unit Status Reporting.  They also have been reviewed to ensure they
are aligned at the paragraph level of detail.

        (5)  The unit MARC Code is 21A.  This is a combat support
unit that operates in the division area.  It is a split based unit
that is required to move.

2.  EMPLOYMENT.

    a.  The Command Aviation Company provides command, control, and
communication aircraft for the division; provides field artillery
aerial observer aircraft to Division Artillery; and provides combat
electronic warfare and intelligence (CEWI) aircraft in support of
the armor or mechanized infantry division.  It will operate from the
division rear area and will employ aircraft throughout the division
area of operations.

    b.  With the exception of the limited AVUM provided by the
assigned crew chiefs and basic tool kits, the unit is dependent on
other units for all logistical and personnel support services.  It
has little or no capability for independent operations away from the
parent battalion.  It locates near or with the battalion HHC.
