This book was released on 2015-05-04 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Peace operations (PO) are crisis response and limited contingency operations, including international efforts and military missions containing conflict, redressing the peace, and shaping the environment supporting reconciliation, rebuilding, and facilitating the transition to effective governance. PO includes peacekeeping operations, peace building, post conflict actions, peacemaking processes, conflict prevention, and military peace enforcement operations. Chapter I describes 5 PO categories and 15 joint fundamentals of PO. The chapter discusses transition planning for PO missions, and other PO categories for relieving forces, and civilian agencies. Chapter II sets the conditions for successful nonmilitary peace building activities. It provides design and planning factors commanders and staffs must consider when undertaking PO. It highlights factors that account for capability differences between United States (US) forces, multinational forces, and civilian agencies. Chapter III describes tactical-level tasks for PO forces. This includes six types of patrols, mobile or fixed observation techniques, and movement control with roadblocks and checkpoints. It provides techniques for vehicle, personnel, and urban searches. In addition, the chapter presents techniques for controlling civil disturbances and handling refugees or displaced persons. Chapter IV focuses on methods for controlling large areas and separating opposing forces, including but not limited to, interposition, establishing areas of separation, buffer zones, border control, and demilitarized zones. Chapter V provides checklists and basic considerations for force protection. This includes threat assessment, force protection condition procedures, and potential terrorist tactics. The chapter focuses on tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTP) for intelligence usage, preventive or reactive medicine, and military information support operations (MISO). Chapter VI lists the principles of civil-military operations and the aspects of governance associated with PO. It provides TTP integrating civilian and military activities for foreign humanitarian assistance, civil affairs operations, and election support. Chapter VII discusses the importance of information operations (IO), and informing and influencing relevant audiences to ensure successful PO. IO is the integrated employment, during military operations, of information-related capabilities in concert with other lines of operation to influence, disrupt, corrupt, or usurp the decision making of adversaries. Chapter VIII provides techniques and considerations for conflict resolution focusing on negotiation, mediation, and arbitration. Appendix A provides the purpose for conducting meetings and interpersonal engagements and provides TTP for effective planning and execution. Appendix B provides an overview of the role and responsibilities of liaison officers and approaches they use that contribute to effective coordination and collaboration among various agencies involved in PO. Appendix C discusses the vital role interpreter's play in facilitating interactions and negotiations between the local or indigenous population and US forces. Appendix D Civil Component Analysis and Templating, describes the process commanders and their staffs use to analyze the civil component of an area of operations and determine how it can help, hinder, or affect PO. Appendix E gives a brief description of various intergovernmental organizations and nongovernmental organizations that work with PO forces. Appendix F discusses joint commissions and how they facilitate more effective PO. Appendix G provides TTP on ways PO forces can protect civilians and effectively respond to mass atrocity situations. Appendix H highlights important PO documents. Appendix I provides training considerations and opportunities for the preparation of PO.

This book was released on 2013-04-17 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This multi-Service publication represents a significant revision of the November 1986 publication. The scope of the previous publication was limited to the effect that weather and terrain have on nuclear, biological, and chemical (NBC) operations and obscuration operations. This publication expands that scope to include the doctrinal employment of chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) capabilities (organizations, personnel, technology, and information) to characterize CBRN threats and hazards, including toxic industrial material (TIM), to the commander and the force. It is designed to provide commanders and staffs at the operational and tactical levels with capability employment planning data and considerations to shape military operations involving CBRN threats and hazards (CBRN shape) and a better understanding of where and when to expect CBRN hazards by applying information management (IM) to the military decisionmaking process (MDMP)/Marine Corps planning process (MCPP). This publication incorporates the characteristics of CBRN shape as addressed in joint concepts and in doctrine; and it provides doctrine and tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTP) for managing CBRN threats and hazards in the larger context of multi-Service military operations. The chapters present a doctrinal foundation, and specific TTP are included in appendixes. This manual also incorporates the joint doctrine elements for combating weapons of mass destruction (WMD), to include the passive defense capabilities of CBRN shape, CBRN sense, CBRN shield, and CBRN sustain. During military operations, this publication is subordinate to current joint publications (JPs) addressing this topic. This document incorporates the following key guidance—• National strategy to combat WMD.• National military strategy to combat WMD.• Department of Defense (DOD) protection joint functional concept.• Joint enabling concept for CBRN defense.• JP 3-40.The purpose of this publication is to provide commanders, staffs, key agencies, and Service members with a key reference for understanding, characterizing, and managing CBRN threats and hazards in a particular operational environment (OE). This manual bridges the gap between Service and joint doctrine. It contains TTP for commanders and staff to use for characterizing and managing CBRN threats and hazards while conducting multi-Service military operations. This manual addresses concepts, principles, fundamentals, planning, operational considerations, and training and support functions. It serves as the foundation for developing Service manuals and refining existing training support packages, mission training plans, training center and unit exercises, and Service school curricula. It drives the examination of organizations and materiel developments applicable to military support of CBRN aspects of command and control (C2).This publication is designed for use at the operational and tactical levels but has implications at the strategic level in the implementation of CBRN supporting strategic objectives. The manual will support command staffs, CBRN staff officers, CBRN noncommissioned officers (NCOs), non-CBRN personnel performing collateral duties as additional-duty CBRN officers or NCOs, and employees of civilian agencies in the assessment, planning, preparation, and execution of CBRN C2 functions. This publication is intended to provide multi- Service C2 concepts and considerations for planning for, responding to, and recovering from CBRN events. It is not stand-alone guidance for United States (U.S.) Air Force (USAF) CBRN actions and activities. It is applicable to USAF units and USAF teams only in conjunction with appropriate USAF-specific publications, installation plans, supporting checklists, and other appropriate guidance.

Book excerpt: This publication, Army Techniques Publication ATP 3-11.41 MCRP 3-37.2C NTTP 3-11.24 AFTTP 3-2.37 Multi-Service Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures for Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear Consequence Management Operations July 2015, provides commanders, staffs, key agencies, and military members with a key reference for planning and conducting chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) consequence management (CM). It provides the tools for CBRN responders to effectively manage the consequences of a CBRN incident. It may also serve as a reference for the development and refining of training and exercises, but shall not supersede Service policy. The principal audience for this multi-Service publication is for CBRN responders who plan and conduct CBRN CM operations in domestic, foreign, or theater operational environments, to include military installations. Department of Defense (DOD) personnel responding to a CBRN incident may be responsible for CBRN CM and/or crisis planning and may be required to execute plans across the conflict spectrum. This publication provides a reference for planning, resourcing, and executing CBRN CM in support of domestic or foreign agencies responding to a CBRN incident. This multi-Service publication incorporates the CM guidance and framework identified in JP 3-40 and JP 3-41. The previous multi-Service tactics, techniques, and procedures (MTTP) also discussed the CBRN aspects of CM as it related to the Federal Response Plan, which was the current guidance at that time. This MTTP provides information on the National Response Framework (NRF), which replaced the National Response Plan (now obsolete) in 2008. The NRF aligns federal coordination structures, capabilities, and resources into a unified, all-discipline, and all-hazards approach to domestic incident management. This manual now complies with the NRF, as appropriate. This publication is designed for use at the tactical level, but has implications at the operational and strategic level for CBRN CM operations supporting strategic objectives. The document will support command and staff planning in preparing for and conducting CBRN CM operations. This manual focuses on DOD support to domestic or foreign CBRN CM operations and a companion reference, TM 3-11.42/MCWP 3-38.1/NTTP 3-11.36/AFTTP 3-2.83 addresses the CBRN defense response on a DOD installation. The National Incident Management System (NIMS) is a comprehensive approach to all aspects of incident management, regardless of size, complexity, or cause. The guidance for NIMS was published by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) in March 2004, and the guidance continues to be refined and updated by the NIMS Integration Center. One of the six primary elements of NIMS is the use of a standardized command and management system for incident scene operations, the Incident Command System (ICS); and for supporting operations centers, the Multiagency Coordination System. In addition, NIMS prescribes specific standards regarding all aspects of preparedness, including planning, training, certification, equipment, and information systems. DOD guidance embraces NIMS, and this manual adopts NIMS when applicable. This manual also incorporates updated information concerning mass casualty decontamination (MCD) operations that was not previously available. Specific tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTP) are included in the appendixes. This manual incorporates the joint doctrine elements from JP 3-11, JP 3-40, and JP 3-41 for conducting CBRN CM (foreign and domestic), including planning, preparation, response, and recovery considerations. During operations, this publication is subordinate to current joint publications addressing this topic.

Book excerpt: Army Techniques Publication ATP 4-10 MCRP 4-11H NTTP 4-09.1 AFMAN 10-409-O Multi-Service Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures or Operational Contract Support February 2016 This multi-Service tactics, techniques, and procedures manual provides operational contract support (OCS) "how to" guidance for Army, Air Force, and Marine Corps commanders, their non-acquisition officer staffs, and their servicing contracting organizations. It also applies to Naval forces operating ashore when these forces are being supported by Army, Air Force, or Marine Corps units. It serves as the primary reference document for planning and execution of OCS, associated functions and tasks at the tactical level. It supersedes ATTP 4-10, Operational Contract Support, dated June 2011 and incorporates the latest guidance found in JP 4-10, Operational Contract Support, dated 16 July 2014 and other associated regulatory guidance. OCS is the process of planning for and obtaining supplies, services, and construction from commercial sources in support of joint operations. While varying in scope and scale, OCS is a critical force multiplier across all phases and types of operations. With a smaller military, less robust active component sustainment capability, and greater emphasis on Phase 0 operations, the critical importance of operational contract support will surely increase as a necessary capability in future operations. Therefore, the Services must continue to enhance their capabilities to plan and provide OCS for deployed forces. This multi-Service publication is intended to provide commanders and their staffs with the doctrinal and policy tools necessary to properly leverage the full spectrum of OCS capabilities in all phases of the operation. This multi-Service publication content remains generally consistent with that found in ATTP 4-10; however, terminology and concepts have been updated as required. Most notably, OCS is redefined and contracting support added as one of the three key OCS functions, in accordance with joint OCS doctrine. The material in this multi-Service publication is presented in a more logical format and sequence, and several new appendices provide an overview of multi-Service OCS capabilities and contain checklists to assist requiring activities and supported units with OCS planning and execution. This multi-Service publication contains five chapters: Chapter 1 introduces OCS and other OCS-related terms, introduces the OCS process and team, discusses key OCS imperatives to minimize risk of contract fraud and unauthorized commitments, and closes with a brief discussion on ethics. Chapter 2 discusses joint planning guidance and the integration of OCS requirements into tactical level planning. It also covers considerations for conducting relief in place and base drawdown and closure. Chapter 3 describes the requirements development process with a focus on requiring activity and supported unit functions. It also discusses the critical parts of a contract support request package and the contract support request package approval process. Chapter 4 covers requiring activity and supported unit responsibilities in contract performance oversight, how contract support is typically assessed, and contains sections on unauthorized commitments, ratifications, and contract closeout actions. Chapter 5 discusses contractor management planning, linking contractor management requirements to the requirements development and contract performance oversight processes, contractor management risks and challenges, contractor personnel legal status information, deployment and redeployment planning and preparation requirements, contractor management in theater, and closes with a section on ensuring fair labor processes.
