Material for this section is derived from FM 3-50. For additional information, see AR 525-28, ATP 3-18.72, and ATP 3-50.10/MCRP 3-05.3/NTTP 3-57.6/AFTTP 3-2.90. H-4. Army personnel recovery is the military efforts taken to prepare for and execute the recovery and reintegration of isolated personnel (FM 3-50). In most cases, a unit conducts a recovery making full use of the in-place Army personnel recovery (PR) capabilities and the designated recovery forces. Army commanders consider four general approaches (sometimes referred to as methods) to conduct PR: unassisted, immediate, deliberate, or external supported. Unassisted PR is the unaided return of isolated personnel to their unit or organization. Isolated persons use evasion and survival techniques to establish contact and return to secure areas. Immediate recovery involves the immediate efforts of the company to locate and bring isolated personnel back to secure areas and reintegrate them. Deliberate recovery efforts involve dedicated assets and personnel conducting recovery operations. These efforts are pre-planned events triggered by an isolating event. They can involve detachments, specified assets, or whole units. External-supported recovery involves recovery efforts by dedicated support from external organizations (such as host nation, partner nation, or interagency organizations). These operations can be conducted in support of, or in coordination with, U.S. forces. H-5. Commanders must be aware of PR plans from theater level through their own echelon prior to conducting operations. Staff activities in planning and conduct of PR are contained in FM 3-50. H-6. PR starts at the home station with training and the creation of an individual isolated personnel report (ISOPREP). Each Soldier submits an ISOPREP prior to deployment and updates the ISOPREP information annually or per standard operating procedure (SOP). Requirements for ISOPREP information input, storage, and management are detailed in AR 525-28 Chapter 6.
