TM 201 on CD?

[Dougal Private 2* Find all posts View Profile Close Dougal]

Can anyone tell me if there is an official channel that I can go through to get TM201 and any of the other manuals I should have as an infantry NCO?

I know that there is a security issue by sending out digital copies of manuals but no more of a threat than the old photocopier provides if you have the time.

Im spending a lot of time working on lessons for tactics and it would be so handy to be able to use the find function in Adobe reader or MS Word to be able to jump straight to the relevent bits and pieces.

Anyway.. keeping security in mind, Im not asking for someone to email it to me if they have it.. honest..

If only NCOs had access to a secure intranet with manuals there to be used.

The DF Intranet surely has it.

Im a reserve though so I dont have access to the DF intranet and my centre hasnt got broadband or the intranet.

Your unit must have a location in a barracks somewhere.

Intranet Presence for TM201

Dougal,

I presume you're in the South, by location ?, If so, all units in the S.Bde have Intranet access, try your HQ element. All required material can be found on the eLearning page, 1 S.Bde FCA site, under 1 S.Bde, under Army.

It does but my centre has no net access.. I'll ask around and see can I travel to Cork or KK and find someone who'd let me copy the manual(s) to CD.

Although I haven't seen them myself, I have been assured that most manuals that you need are on the intranet...if you cant get them through your unit, try asking your cadre to contact the cadre in another unit and ask them to burn a disc and send it to your unit. Failing that, like smegers said, BTC should have no problems getting you manuals.

one tip i have, if posible put it on usb, you can then burn it to cd after. the computer you get the manual from may have intranet access but it may not have cd burning software or hardware, it should be able to use a simple usb key though

DF computers generally have the CD and USB drives disabled. You might have to print of a hard copy.

East BTC issues a CD of manuals to all students on PNCO, Standards, POfficer etc. and are more then willing to help out anyone who asks for anything else. Your own BTC should be able to pull the finger out and help you.

Hidden, not disabled.

No. You can see them, you just can't use them.
