  field artillery brigade will serve as the counterfire headquarters and the other will service the corps
  commander’s targeting priorities and support division assets. (See FM 3-09 for additional information in field
  artillery brigade operations.)
  Engineer Brigade
  4-58. The corps assigned engineer brigade controls the mission-tailored engineer battalions that are not task-
  organized to subordinate divisions and brigades. These battalions typically have capabilities from the three
  engineer disciplines: combat engineering, general engineering, and geospatial engineering. Their purpose is
  to enhance mobility, countermobility, survivability, and sustainment.
  4-59. An engineer brigade develops plans, procedures, and programs for engineer support. These include
  requirements determination, operational mobility and countermobility, general engineering, power
  generation, area damage control, military construction, geospatial engineering, engineering design,
  construction materials, and real property maintenance activities. The corps engineer brigade integrates and
  synchronizes engineer capabilities across the corps AO and reinforces subordinate corps units in the
  execution of engineer tasks by allocating mission-tailored engineer forces.
  4-60. Engineer tasks alter terrain to overcome obstacles (including gaps), create, maintain, and improve lines
  of communication, create fighting positions, improve protective positions, and build structures and facilities
  (including base camps, aerial ports, seaports, and utilities). An engineer brigade is also capable of rapid
  deployment in modular elements to support the needs of the operational commander. These elements are
  capable of providing a wide range of technical engineering expertise and support. (See FM 3-34 for additional
  information about engineer operations.)
  Military Police Brigade
  4-61. The Army allocates a military police brigade to a corps when the magnitude of military police
  requirements exceeds the capability of the MEB to control military police activities. The military police
  brigade is a functional brigade of the Army and is capable of planning, integrating, and directing the execution
  of military police missions conducted by up to five mission-tailored military police battalions; integrating
  capabilities from all three military police disciplines (police operations, detention operations, and security
  and mobility support); and integrating police intelligence operations. It may also command other units
  focused on performing area support, detention, or dislocated-civilian tasks and on synchronizing military
  police support across multiple organizations that control an AO in support of stability tasks. During
  large-scale combat operations, a military police brigade is required to allocate, synchronize, control, and
  provide technical oversight when there are more than two military police battalions’ worth of capabilities
  within a corps or division AO. Some functional military police elements remain under control of the MEB,
  even if a corps or higher echelon headquarters provides a functional military police brigade to the corps (See
  FM 3-39 for additional information on the military police brigade and military police operations).
  Corps Signal Brigade
  4-62. A corps signal brigade provides signal support for corps and division operations. In large-scale combat
  operations, the corps signal brigade commands one or more expeditionary signal battalions or expeditionary
  signal battalions-enhanced. Corps signal brigades provide communications and information systems support
  to a theater army headquarters, their subordinate units, and as required, to joint, inter-organizational,
  interagency, and multinational partners throughout the corps AO. The corps signal brigade and its subordinate
  units install, operate, maintain, and secure their portions of the DODIN-A. Each corps signal brigade
  leverages network extension and reach back capabilities to provide joint communications and information
  systems services to the GCC and subordinate commanders to support command and control and enable the
  other warfighting functions. (See FM 6-02 for more information on the corps signal brigade.)
  PROVIDED FORCES
  4-63. Based upon the corps’ role and mission, it can receive a variety of forces to assist the corps in matching
  capabilities to requirement. Provided forces consist of functional brigades, multifunctional brigades, and
  smaller units and enablers. The most common of the provided forces are a combat aviation brigade;
