scope:

a. Stationing is the process of combining force structure and physical capabilities at a specific location to satisfy a specific mission requirement. As such, and in accordance with AR 5-10, it includes force structure actions that impact authorizations (military and civilian) at a particular location.

b. Each stationing action includes a force structure component and a facility component which must be considered as part of the stationing process.

c. A stationing package is a set of documents used to complete coordination and obtain approval for stationing units on Army installations or in leased space in support of operational requirements.

d. Stationing procedures for units located overseas vary from procedures for units located inside the United States. Units located in Alaska, Hawaii, and U.S. territories follow the same procedures as other units stationed in the United States rather than overseas stationing procedures as defined in paragraph 4-2d.
