The publication chronicles the various organizations and programs that link the U.S. Army Space and Missile Defense Command with the field army and the application of "space products" to combat since 1986. These include Global Positioning System (GPS) products that enabled field units to locate themselves accurately on the battlefield; satellites that provided warning of hostile missile (SCUD) attacks; and spaced-based mapping and communications systems that supported deployed commands.
