  2-25. Combined arms organizations accomplish their mission by synchronizing the warfighting functions to
  execute these forms of maneuver. Combined arms is the synchronized and simultaneous application of arms
  to achieve an effect greater than if each element was used separately or sequentially. Understanding the
  characteristics of an assigned area and the enemy’s dispositions helps units determine the best form of
  maneuver.
  2-26. A single operation may contain multiple forms of maneuver, such as a frontal attack to clear a security
  area followed by a penetration to create a gap in enemy defenses. A form of maneuver can also be used in
  the defense. For example, in a mobile defense the striking force conducts an envelopment to destroy the
  enemy. Typically, a higher headquarters does not dictate what form of maneuver a subordinate should use,
  but if the situation warrants, a higher echelon may constrain a subordinate force to a specific form of
  maneuver. The successful execution of any forms of maneuver requires trained forces capable of shifting
  their formations quickly in response to a changing enemy situation.
  FRONTAL ATTACK
  2-27. A frontal attack is a form of maneuver in which an attacking force seeks to destroy a weaker
  enemy force or fix a larger enemy force in place over a broad front. As depicted in figure 2-14 on page
  2-14 an attacking force uses a frontal attack to overrun a weak enemy force. They normally employ a frontal
  attack to—
