Book Coast Guard Publication 3 0 Operations February 2012

Download or read book Coast Guard Publication 3 0 Operations February 2012 written by United States Government US Coast Guard and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-05-12 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Coast Guard Publication 3-0 Operations February 2012 The Coast Guard's value to the nation resides in our proven ability to accomplish the mission in the maritime domain, whether through saving lives, protecting the marine environment, or defending our country. Our unique authorities, capabilities, competencies, and partnerships as a military, law enforcement, regulatory, and humanitarian Service are central to that value proposition. We are recognized worldwide for our ability to execute these diverse maritime missions over vast geographic areas and under the most challenging and demanding conditions. Publication 3-0 provides the enduring guidance for Coast Guard operations: how and why we do what we do. This guidance is based on over two centuries of Coast Guard experience in maritime operations and the principles of operations provided in Publication 1-0. Two fundamental elements to operations warrant special emphasis: leadership and proficiency. We rely on leadership at every level of command to conduct operations safely and effectively in an inherently dangerous maritime environment. We rely on proficiency in the operational arts of our profession-seamanship, airmanship, law enforcement, joint military and interagency operations. And operations rely on proficiency in mission support and other key enabling disciplines.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Noncommissioned Officer and Petty Officer BACKBONE of the Armed Forces. Introduction The Backbone of the Armed Forces To be a member of the United States Armed Forces--to wear the uniform of the Nation and the stripes, chevrons, or anchors of the military Services--is to continue a legacy of service, honor, and patriotism that transcends generations. Answering the call to serve is to join the long line of selfless patriots who make up the Profession of Arms. This profession does not belong solely to the United States. It stretches across borders and time to encompass a culture of service, expertise, and, in most cases, patriotism. Today, the Nation's young men and women voluntarily take an oath to support and defend the Constitution of the United States and fall into formation with other proud and determined individuals who have answered the call to defend freedom. This splendid legacy, forged in crisis and enriched during times of peace, is deeply rooted in a time-tested warrior ethos. It is inspired by the notion of contributing to something larger, deeper, and more profound than one's own self. Notice: This is a printed Paperback version of the "The Noncommissioned Officer and Petty Officer BACKBONE of the Armed Forces". Full version, All Chapters included. This publication is available (Electronic version) in the official website of the National Defense University (NDU). This document is properly formatted and printed as a perfect sized copy 6x9".

Book International Law for Seagoing Officers  7th Editi

Download or read book International Law for Seagoing Officers 7th Editi written by Craig H Allen and published by Naval Institute Press. This book was released on 2022-11-15 with total page 572 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The seventh edition of this Blue and Gold Series book brings clarity and context to international law for the seagoing professional. This book is the only work that addresses the international law of the sea from the perspective of the United States. For those who operate on, under and over the sea, international law can sometimes be as complex as it is important. Written by the same former seagoing officer and maritime law professional who authored the current edition of Farwell’s Rules of the Nautical Road, this book was designed to bring clarity and context to international law for the seagoing professional. Following an introduction to public international law and a short history of the law of the sea, the book describes the rules that apply in ports and in the adjacent maritime zones, including the territorial sea, exclusive economic zone, archipelagic waters, and the high seas. A highlight of the book are the chapters that focus on subjects of greatest interest to the seagoing professional, including military and intelligence activities in the maritime domain, maritime law enforcement activities and the use of force at sea. The appendices include the text of the 1982 UN Convention on the Law of the Sea and the U.S. Senate’s “understandings” of key provisions of the convention. Whether an academy cadet, a midshipman, a seasoned commanding officer, or master mariner, readers of this thorough and timely book will be rewarded with a far greater understanding of the international laws that govern ships and mariners at sea. New in this edition: Over a dozen new cases by courts and arbitration panels interpreting UNCLOS, including the South China Sea dispute between the Philippines and China. Coverage of Commercial Seafarer protections under Maritime Labor Convention. Global Responses to the Mediterranean Migrant Crisis. Coverage of the law protecting our vital submarine cables. Expanded coverage of unmanned and autonomous vessels and aircraft. Coverage on vessel health safety and quarantine measures applicable in the COVID-19 Pandemic. A new chapter surveying issues the U.S. Senate should consider in any decision regarding ratification of UNCLOS. A new appendix setting out the U.S. Navy and Coast Guard policies on sovereign immunity of government vessels and aircraft.

Book Not Your Father s Coast Guard

Download or read book Not Your Father s Coast Guard written by Matthew Mitchell and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2009-11-16 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While the Coast Guards many battles at sea in the War on Drugs are widely known, its participation in the ground offensive is not. Indeed, the Guard didnt just send its cutters to interdict narcotics-laden vessels attempting to bring their illicit cargo into Uncle Sams territorial waters, it sent ground troops to foreign lands to train their forces and, when necessary, directly engage the enemy. But to create the type of force needed was no small task and would not be without tribulation, both from within and outside the organization. The road traveled to complete the mission was laden with obstacles. This is not a story about the Coast Guard you know, or think you know. Rather, this is a story about the other side, the side that history nearly forgot; not the standard, but the antithesis of standard. It is a story that will undoubtedly make even the most seasoned Coast Guardsmen question their understanding of the organization to which they belong. To be sure, This is not your fathers Coast Guard.

Book Care for the Sorrowing Soul

Download or read book Care for the Sorrowing Soul written by Duane Larson and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2017-10-26 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Moral Injury is now recognized as a growing major problem for military men and women. Operant conditioning can overwhelm moral convictions and yet the question of whether "to shoot or not to shoot" often will never have a settled answer. Certain theories and treatment models about MI have been well developed, but too often overlook root issues of religious faith. The authors propose a new model for understanding moral injury and suggest ways to mitigate its virtually inevitable occurrence in pre-combat training, and ways to resolve MI post-trauma with proven spiritual resources. People outside the military, too, among whom the incidence of MI also is a growing threat, will benefit from this analysis. The stories of the injured--their shaping and their telling--are the key, and there are many illumining stories of moral injury and recovery. Those who suffer MI, their families, and caregivers, including counselors, pastors, and faith communities, will find hope-giving first steps toward the healing of MI in this book.

Book Space Capstone Publication Spacepower

Download or read book Space Capstone Publication Spacepower written by Us Government United States Space Force and published by . This book was released on 2020-08-11 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, Space Capstone Publication Spacepower: Doctrine for Space Forces, is capstone doctrine for the United States Space Force and represents our Service's first articulation of an independent theory of spacepower. This publication answers why spacepower is vital for our Nation, how military spacepower is employed, who military space forces are, and what military space forces value. In short, this capstone document is the foundation of our professional body of knowledge as we forge an independent military Service committed to space operations. Like all doctrine, the SCP remains subject to the policies and strategies that govern its employment. Military spacepower has deterrent and coercive capacities - it provides independent options for National and Joint leadership but achieves its greatest potential when integrated with other forms of military power. As we grow spacepower theory and doctrine, we must do so in a way that fosters greater integration with the Air Force, Army, Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard. It is only by achieving true integration and interdependence that we can hope to unlock spacepower's full potential.
