1. SCOPE

a. During this two-hour class, 701T-CCO190 (Joint Operations), the student will understand Army Operational Art and Joint operations at the strategic and operational levels. The student is introduced to the basic doctrinal fundamentals of Joint Operations through the readings of Joint Publication 3-0, and operational art through readings in ADRP 3-0. Students will discuss national interests and partnership. The class will explain how Mission Command is achieved through the use of COCOMs, MACOMs, and AORs. Students will explore the key tenets and considerations in planning and executing military operations with joint partners.

b. Upon completion of this lesson, students will better understand the Army’s role as a Joint Force Multiplier. Students will reinforce this information in the Joint Briefings delivered later in the week as part of 701T-CCO210: Joint Roles, Capabilities, Limitations.

c. 701T-CCO190 is an integral part of the core foundation for an introductory grounding in joint war fighting for Joint Professional Military Education (JPME).

Lesson Introduction

Slide 1, 701T-CCO190 Introduction

Instructor Note: C.E.

Instructions for Concrete Experience (CE). As a base-line, you can use this CE with your students. However, we encourage instructors to use an example that will resonate with your particular students.

BEFORE SHOWING SLIDE 1: Ask the students how many of them have ever been part of a joint operation. Most will not raise their hands.

Next, ask how many have ever been deployed. Many of them will raise their hands.

NOW SHOW SLIDE 1.

Ask the students if this is a joint operation. Now they should begin to understand the point. Most of us have been part of a joint operation. We just weren’t thinking of it like that.

For instance, the Army needs the Air Force and Navy to haul large amounts of equipment, supplies, and soldiers. The Army needs the aircraft and support of the Air Force to contribute to the mission. Many examples may be provided.

701T-CCO190-LP-4

Slide 2, P &P

Publish and Process: Ask the students about their personal experiences working with Marines, Airmen, Sailors, FBI, foreign military, Drug Enforcement Agency, USAID , etc. Get them to explain that working Jointly enables the organization to offer a variety of talents, functions, capabilities to the effort.

Ask, “Have you seen Air Force, Marines, or Navy personnel on your local Army base?” Ask the students to speculate if they don’t know and address the reasons why other services and agencies are on Army bases.

Slide 3,

The fundamental purpose of military power is to deter or wage war in support of national policy. In these capacities, military power is a coercive instrument, designed to achieve by force or the threat of force what other means have not. The previous class, U101, Unified Land Operations, introduced the concept of Unified Action and hinted at Joint Operations. This lesson will focus specifically on Joint Operations doctrine, view of warfare, and combatant commands.

Fig I-3 Joint Publication 3-0, 17 JAN 2017, Incorporating Change 1, 22 OCT 2018

Although individual Services may accomplish tasks and missions in support of Department of Defense (DOD) objectives, the primary way DOD employs two or more Services (from two Military Departments) in a single operation, particularly in combat, is through joint operations. Joint operations is a general term that describes military actions conducted by joint forces and those Service forces employed in specified command relationships with each other, which, of themselves, do not establish joint forces. A joint force is one composed of significant elements, assigned or attached, of two or more Military Departments operating under a single JFC.As the student learned in U101, Unified Land Operations, the Army fulfills a role within Unified Action. Unified Action is a comprehensive approach that synchronizes, coordinates, and integrates military operations with the activities of other governmental and non-governmental organizations to achieve unity of effort. The common operating precept is to achieve and maintain unity of effort within the joint force and between the joint force and inter-organizational partners.

701T-CCO190-LP-5

Slide 4, Joint Aspects of Warfare

Joint aspects of warfare:When thinking about warfare, it is useful to think about the distinction between traditional and irregular warfare (IW). Each serves a fundamentally different strategic purpose and has different approaches, but that does not mean that warfare falls neatly into one category or the other.

Joint aspects of warfare (continued):Traditional Warfare. This form of warfare is characterized as a violent struggle for domination between nation-states or coalitions and alliances of nation-states. This form is labeled as traditional because it has been the preeminent form of warfare in the West since the Peace of Westphalia (1648) that reserved for the nation-state alone a monopoly on the legitimate use of force. The strategic purpose of traditional warfare is the imposition of a nation’s will on its adversary nation-state(s) and the avoidance of its will being imposed upon us.

Nation states fight each other for varied reasons. Military operations typically focus on the adversary’s armed forces IOT influence the adversary’s

government. The defeat of an adversary’s armed forces, destruction of the adversary’s war-making capacity,

and/or seizure of a territory are the typical mechanisms of victory. Typically assumes that indigenous people are not belligerents and will accept the political

outcome. Encompasses non-state actors who adopt conventional military capabilities and methods. Near term results are evident: win, lose, or stalemate.

Irregular Warfare. This form of warfare is characterized as a violent struggle among state and non-state actors for legitimacy and influence over the relevant population(s). This form is labeled as irregular in order to highlight its non-Westphalian context. The strategic point of IW is to gain or maintain control or influence over, and the support of, a relevant population.

Military options alone rarely resolve IW Less powerful (state or non-state) actors seek to disrupt military capabilities of more powerful

adversary Attempts to exhaust the will of the opponent by waging protracted conflicts

Therefore, joint doctrine has a foundation that combines offensive, defensive, and stability operations. The predominant method or combination depends on many factors, such as the capability or nature of the enemy.

701T-CCO190-LP-6

Slide 5 Military Operations and Activities

Figure V-1. Examples of Military Operations and Activities

Have each student pick one Operation or Activity from the slide. Give the students a few minutes to review the JP 3-0 and have them describe the operation or activity in their own words…not verbatim from the JP. Encourage the students to bring their experiences into the description.

(1) Stability Activities. Stability activities is an overarching term encompassing various military missions, tasks, and activities conducted outside the US in coordination with other instruments of national power to maintain or reestablish a safe and secure environment and to provide essential governmental services, emergency infrastructure reconstruction, and humanitarian relief. See JP 3-07, Stability, for more information. (2) DSCA. DSCA is provided by US federal military forces, DOD agencies, DOD civilians, DOD contractor personnel, DOD component assets, and National Guard forces when SecDef, in coordination with the governors of the affected states, elects and requests to use those forces in Title 32, USC, status in response to requests for assistance from civil authorities for domestic emergencies, law enforcement support, and other domestic activities, or from qualifying entities for special events. See JP 3-28, Defense Support of Civil Authorities, for more information. (3) FHA. FHA is DOD activities, normally in support of the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) or DOS, conducted outside the US and its territories to relieve or reduce human suffering, disease, hunger, or privation. See JP 3-29, Foreign Humanitarian Assistance.(4) Recovery. Recovery is operations to search for, locate, identify, recover, and return isolated personnel, human remains, sensitive equipment, or items critical to national security. See JP 3-50, Personnel Recovery. (5) NEO. NEO is an operation to evacuate noncombatants and civilians from foreign countries to safe havens or to the US when their lives are endangered by war, civil unrest, or natural disaster. See JP 3-68, Noncombatant Evacuation Operations. (6) Peace Operations (PO). PO are operations to contain conflict, redress the peace, and shape the environment to support reconciliation and rebuilding and facilitate the transition to legitimate governance. PO include peacekeeping operations (PKO), peace enforcement operations (PEO), peacemaking (PM), peace-building (PB), and conflict prevention efforts. See JP 3-07.3, Peace Operations. (7) Countering Weapons of Mass Destruction (CWMD). CWMD encompasses efforts against actors of concern to curtail the conceptualization, development, possession, proliferation, use, and effects of WMD, related expertise, materials, technologies, and means of delivery. See JP 3-40, Countering Weapons of Mass Destruction. (8) CBRN Response. CBRN response is DOD support to USG actions that plan for, prepare for, respond to, and recover from the effects of domestic and foreign CBRN incidents. See JP 3-41, Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear Response. (9) Foreign Internal Defense (FID). FID is participation by civilian and military agencies of a government in any of the action programs taken by another government or other designated organization to free and protect its society from subversion, lawlessness, insurgency, terrorism, and other threats to its security. FID is an example of USG foreign assistance. See JP 3-22, Foreign Internal Defense.

701T-CCO190-LP-7

(10) Counterdrug (CD) Operations. CD operations provide DOD support to LEAs to detect, monitor, and counter the production, trafficking, and use of illegal drugs. See JP 3-07.4, Counterdrug Operations. (11) Combating Terrorism. Combating terrorism is actions, including antiterrorism (defensive measures taken to reduce vulnerability to terrorist acts) and CT (actions taken directly against terrorist networks) to oppose terrorism. See JP 3-07.2, Antiterrorism, and JP 3-26, Counterterrorism. (12) COIN. COIN is an operation that encompasses comprehensive civilian and military efforts taken to defeat an insurgency and to address any core grievances. See JP3-24, Counterinsurgency Operations.(13) HD. HD is the protection of US sovereignty, territory, domestic population, and critical defense infrastructure against external threats and aggression or other threats as directed by the President. See JP 3-27, Homeland Defense.(14) Mass Atrocity Response. Mass atrocity response is military activities conducted to prevent or halt mass atrocities. See JP 3-07.3, Peace Operations.

Slide 6, Range of Military Operations (ROMO)

The potential range of military activities and operations extends from military engagement, security cooperation, and deterrence in times of relative peace up through large-scale combat operations. The range encompasses three primary categories: military engagement, security cooperation, and deterrence; crisis response and limited contingency operations; and large-scale combat operations.

Joint Publication 3-0, 17 JAN 2017, Incorporating Change 1, 22 OCT 2018 Chapter V 3. The Range of Military Operations, p.V-4 through V-5.

Slide 7, Principles of Joint Operations

Regardless of the type of warfare or the range of military operation, joint doctrine applies the principles of war, and adds restraint, perseverance, and legitimacy, to create the principles of joint operations.

Slide based on Fig I-1 pg. I-2, Joint Publication 3-0, 17 JAN 2017, Incorporating Change 1, 22 OCT 2018

Three additional principles―restraint, perseverance, and legitimacy―are relevant to how the Armed Forces of the United States use combat power across the range of military operations. These three, added to the original nine, comprise 12 principles of joint operations.

Objective: Direct every military operation toward a clearly defined, decisive, and achievable goal.

701T-CCO190-LP-8

Offensive: Seize, retain, and exploit the initiative. Offensive action is the most effective and decisive way to achieve a clearly defined objective. Offensive operations are the means by which a military force seizes and holds the initiative while maintaining freedom of action and achieving decisive results. The importance of offensive action is fundamentally true across all levels of war.

Mass: concentrate the effects of combat power at the most advantageous place and time to produce decisive results.

Maneuver: place the enemy in a position of disadvantage through the flexible application of combat power.

Economy of Force: expend minimum essential combat power on secondary efforts in order to allocate the maximum possible combat power on primary efforts.

Unity of Command: ensure unity of effort under one responsible commander for every objective. During multinational operations and interagency coordination, unity of command may not be possible, but the requirement for unity of effort becomes paramount. Unity of effort—the coordination and cooperation toward common objectives, even if the participants are not necessarily part of the same command or organization—is the product of successful unified action.

Security: prevent the enemy from acquiring unexpected advantage. Staff planning and an understanding of enemy strategy, tactics, and doctrine enhance security. Risk is inherent in military operations. Application of this principle includes prudent risk management, not undue caution.

Surprise: strike at a time or place or in a manner for which the enemy is unprepared. Factors contributing to surprise include speed in decision-making, information sharing, and force movement; effective intelligence; deception; application of unexpected combat power; OPSEC; and variations in tactics and methods of operation.

Simplicity: increase the probability that plans and operations will be executed as intended by preparing clear, uncomplicated plans and concise orders. Simple plans and clear, concise orders minimize misunderstanding and confusion. When other factors are equal, the simplest plan is preferable.

Restraint: limit collateral damage and prevent the unnecessary use of force. A single act could cause significant military and political consequences; therefore, judicious use of force is necessary. For example, the exposure of intelligence gathering activities, such as interrogation of detainees and prisoners of war, could have significant political and military repercussions and should be conducted with sound judgment. Excessive force antagonizes those parties involved, thereby damaging the legitimacy of the organization that uses it.

Perseverance: ensure the commitment necessary to attain the national strategic end state. Perseverance involves preparation for measured, protracted military operations in pursuit of the national strategic end state. Some joint operations may require years to reach the termination criteria. This will frequently involve diplomatic, economic, and informational measures to supplement military efforts.

Legitimacy: maintain legal and moral authority in the conduct of operations. Legitimacy, which can be a decisive factor in operations, is based on the actual and perceived legality, morality, and rightness of the actions from the various perspectives of interested audiences. Another aspect of this principle is the legitimacy bestowed upon a local government through the perception of the populace that it governs. During operations in an area where a legitimate government does not exist, extreme caution should be used when dealing with individuals and organizations to avoid inadvertently legitimizing them.

701T-CCO190-LP-9

Slide 8 , The Levels of War

Reinforce the reading from JP 3-0 by covering the Levels of War

• The levels of war define and clarify the relationship between strategy, operational approach, and tactical actions. The levels have no finite limits or boundaries. They correlate to specific levels of responsibility and planning. They help organize thought and approaches to a problem. The levels provide a clear distinction between headquarters and the specific responsibilities and actions performed at each echelon.

• The levels of war are intertwined. Tactical success, while required to achieve operational goals, must be tied to attaining the strategic objectives. A string of tactical victories does not guarantee campaign success. Wars are won at the operational and strategic levels; yet without tactical success, a major operation cannot achieve the desired end state.

• The Operational Level of war links the tactical employment of forces to achieve strategic objectives. Campaigns and Major Operations are conducted at the Operational level to achieve Strategic objectives.

Another class will cover the elements of operational art in greater detail.

Transition.

Joint Campaign Characteristics:A campaign is a series of related military operations aimed at accomplishing a military strategic or operational objective within a given time and space. Planning for a campaign is appropriate when the contemplated military operations exceed the scope of a single major operation.• Campaigns are joint in nature—functional and Service components conduct supporting operations, not independent campaigns. The size, complexity, and anticipated duration of operations typically magnify the planning challenges. There are three categories of campaigns, which differ generally in scope

• Operational art is the application of creative imagination by commanders and staffs—supported by their skill, knowledge, and experience—to design strategies, campaigns, and major operations and organize and employ military forces. Operational art integrates ends, ways, and means across the levels of war (JP 3-0).

701T-CCO190-LP-10

• Operational art reflects an intuitive understanding of the operational environment and the approach necessary to establish conditions for success. In visualizing a campaign or major operation, operational commanders determine the conditions that satisfy the President’s strategic guidance.

• Without operational art, operations often devolve into a series of disconnected tactical engagements with relative attrition the only measure of success. Through operational art, the commander’s vision is translated into operational design and, ultimately, tactical action by integrating ends, ways, and means across the levels of war.

Slide 9, Operational Variables PMESII Break Students into groups: Give 5 mins to prepare a short brief defining the assigned variable and answering “How does geopolitics, culture, region, and religion affect and shape the planning and execution of joint force operations?”

Slide 9: Reinforce the reading from JP 3-0 about PMESII:

Most company-grade officers are familiar with Mission Variables (Mission, Enemy, Terrain, Troops available, Terrain and Weather, and Civilian considerations (METT-TC).

At the operational level, and at the tactical level during stability operations, the variables are called Operational Variables: Political, Military, Economic, Social, Information, Infrastructure at the Joint level. The Army adds PT for Physical Environment and Time to make it PMESII-PT.

A systems perspective of the operational environment strives to provide an understanding of interrelated systems (e.g. PMESII and others) relevant to a specific joint operation without regard to geographic boundaries.

Understanding these systems, their interaction with each other, and how system relationships will change over time will increase the JFC’s knowledge of how actions within a system can affect other system components. Among other benefits, this perspective helps intelligence analysts identify potential sources from which to gain indications and warning, and facilitates understanding the continuous and complex interaction of friendly, adversary, and neutral systems.

Ask: What are some considerations for conducting Cyberspace and Electronic Warfare Operations in a joint environment? See FM 3-12 Cyberspace and Electronic Warfare Operations, Appendix A Integration with Unified Action Partners

These help us determine our national interest. Understanding your operating environment is a theme that should flow through the entire course.

Transition to combatant commands and the joint task force structure.

701T-CCO190-LP-11

Slide 10, Combatant Commands

Now that we have covered the theory and principles of warfare and joint operations, we will examine how joint forces organize.

Based upon the President’s Unified Command Plan, Geographic Combatant Commanders (GCC) have an assigned geographic area of responsibility (AOR), and are responsible for the missions within their AOR.Functional combatant commanders (FCC) have transregional responsibilities and normally support GCC activities within an AOR. Geographic Combatant Commands include: US Central Command (USCENTCOM), US European Command (USEUCOM), US Indo-Pacific Command (USINDOPACOM), US Southern Command (USSOUTHCOM), US Africa Command (USAFRICOM), and US Northern Command (USNORTHCOM).

Each GCC has an assigned geographic AOR Accomplish missions with assigned an/or attached forces Forces under the direction of the President or Secretary of Defense may conduct operations from

or within any geographic area as required

GCC Responsibilities include: Detect, deter, and prevent attacks against the US, its territories and bases, and employ appropriate

force should deterrence fail. Carry out assigned missions and tasks, and plan for and execute military operations, as directed. Maintain the security of and carry out force protection and personnel recovery responsibilities Plan, conduct, and assess security cooperation activities. Plan and conduct evacuation and protection of US citizens. Provide US military representation to international and US national agencies Provide the single point of contact on military matters within the AOR.

INDOPACOM and NORTHCOM have additional responsibilities.

The Commander, United States Northern Command (CDRUSNORTHCOM), is responsible for: Providing support to civil authorities, as directed. Providing chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear consequence management assistance

and support to US and allied partner authorities, as directed, within US territories and protectorates and the USNORTHCOM AOR.

CDRUSNORTHCOM is also designated the Commander, US Element, NORAD. NORAD is responsible for aerospace warning and control and maritime warning for Canada, Alaska, Puerto Rico, the US Virgin Islands, the continental US, the air defense identification zone, and the air and maritime approaches.

Plan, organize, and execute homeland defense operations Synchronize DOD efforts in response to pandemic influenza

701T-CCO190-LP-12

INDOPACOM additional responsibilities include many of the same additional tasks NORTHCOM fulfills, but in a different AOR. Within its AOR, INDOPACOM:

Provides support to civil authorities Provides CBRN consequence management assistance and support to US and allied partners Plan, organize, and execute homeland defense operations Synchronize DOD efforts in response to pandemic influenza

Functional Combatant Commands: USSOCOM: Commander, US Special Operations Command is the SOF joint force provider;

synchronizes global operations planning against terrorist networks, and trains the special operations force. USSTRATCOM: Commander, US Strategic Command, of all CCDRS, has primary responsibility

to support strategic deterrence; provides global strike planning; synchronizes planning for global missile defense; and conducts many other strategic missions.

USTRANSCOM: Commander, US Transportation Command serves the mobility joint force provider and provides air, land, and maritime transportation, terminal management, and aerial refueling to support global efforts of US forces.

USCYBERCOM: The Commander, USCYBERCOM, has the mission to direct, synchronize, and coordinate cyberspace planning and operations to defend and advance national interests in collaboration with domestic and international partners.

For more information on Combatant Commanders, reference Joint Publication 1, Chapter III.

Slide 11, Joint Task Force

A combatant command is one joint force option, establishing a joint task force is another joint force option. The Secretary of Defense, a Combatant Command Commander, a subordinate unified command commander, or an existing joint task force commander may constitute a Joint Task Force to accomplish missions with specific, limited objectives.

JTF: Who can form it:Secretary of DefenseCombatant CommanderSubordinate unified command commanderExisting commander, joint task force

How:Convert existing subordinate command (Corps, numbered Fleet, numbered Marine Expeditionary Force, or numbered Air Force) to JTF HQTheater special operations command forms basis for JTF HQ staff.See JP 3-33, Joint Task Force Headquarters for more information

701T-CCO190-LP-13

Joint Task Forces organize to accomplish missions with specific, limited objectives, and which do not require centralized control of logistics; JTF may have a geographical or functional basis. Joint Task Force North (JTF-N), originally chartered as JTF-6, is an example of a JTF with a geographical basis. JTF-6 had a counter-drug mission along the Southwest border of the United States; later the geographic area of responsibility expanded to include the continental United States.

For more information on how a Joint Task Force organizes, see Joint Publication 1, Chapter IV, or Joint Publication 3.0, or JP 3-33, Joint Task Force Headquarters.
