What is the requirements document that depicts a doctrinally correct organizational design and becomes a building block with which to build Army authorizations?

• A. Tables of Organization and Equipment (TOE)
• B. Modified Tables of Organization and Equipment (MTOE)
• C. Tables of Distribution and Allowances (TDA)
• D. Army Structure Memorandum (ARSTRUC)

Answer: (A)

The key idea is the standard, doctrinal blueprint used to define how a unit is organized and equipped. Tables of Organization and Equipment (TOE) describe the official unit structure, the equipment authorized, and the manpower required to perform the mission. It provides the consistent baseline from which Army authorizations are built, ensuring uniformity across units. Modified TOEs adjust that baseline for a specific unit's needs, but they are derived from the doctrinal TOE and are not the baseline itself. Tables of Distribution and Allowances cover nonstandard or task-organized units and don’t serve as the primary building block for authorizations. ARSTRUC is a planning reference for overall Army structure, not the specific doctrinal unit blueprint. So the document that fits the description is the Tables of Organization and Equipment.
