Army special operations units are responsible for self-recovery in support of their own operations, consistent with organic capabilities and assigned functions and in accordance with the requirements of the supported commander. These units must make recovery planning an inherent part of every mission and include recovery and emergency exfiltration operations. The vast majority of the recovery planning can be facilitated through the unit’s standard operating procedure that is subsequently plugged into the evasion plan of action. Personnel recovery of special operations personnel in a conventional force area of operations may be assisted by the personnel recovery teams organic to Army service component command, corps, or division headquarters and coordinated by the special operations command and control elements in support of those headquarters.
