Emerging from a 101010 collection of city-states with no central government, the Maya reached a cultural peak between A.D. 250250250 and 900900900. The fires warfighting function as defined by the Army includes the following tasks: Deliver fires, integrate all forms of Army, joint and multinational fires, and conduct targeting. These two occurrences arguably have brought Special Operations to a level similar to the rest of DoD wherein the most important priority among the hierarchy is the growth of the bureaucracy. Every village that does not have the safety and security of the institutions that were formed to do so, can be armed in self-defense of their rights, their property, their lives. The intelligence warfighting function tasks facilitate the commanders visualization and understanding of the threat and other relevant aspects of the operational environment. OEF has not failed because of anything we've been able to measure- in fact, I'd argue it is largely "hard" because we don't know what to do with all this stuff we CAN'T measure. [xli] For just one example of how this affects SOF: US Army Special Forces (SF) majors are compared to Conventional Force (CF) majors for promotion to lieutenant-colonel as well as battalion command. The NZ Army utilises US Army warfighting as described in ADP 3-0 Operations, July 2019. And, thereby. The Staff may have been there a week but no more than a year. When I think of the human domain I think of Unconventional Warfare (UW)[xxiii], Counterinsurgency (COIN), Counter UW, insurgency, and the like. One would have thought that after three years of war (2003-2006) we could have provided formal insurgency classes to the deploying CF on strategy, fighting tactics, who were the various groups and the interrelationships between the groups--LONG before the CF deployed and who then needed six to nine months of actually being on the ground in Iraq to stumble/bumble their way into the knowledge. Unless, of course, you mean to present an ahistorical role for SOF in future conflicts such as the lead in the military. The trends within SOF, however, seem to be a growing reliance on process, bureaucracy, and metrics, all obstacles to breaking away from any institutionally-approved ways of thinking. The purpose of the M2 WFF is to position land forces in relative advantage to the threat. Conversations Ive had with many others about the human domain tend to revolve around two very confounding comments: 1) that the Air Force and Navy rarely- if ever- have anything to do with humans, and, 2) that when referring to ourselves we should use the term human dimension. That any organization attempting to be more nuanced and savvy in its approach and be more population-centric would refer to the human domain as other humans and our own selves as a dimension can only point to us being a slave to our own confusing doctrinal system (I submit when we attempt to indoctrinate abstraction (tacit subjects), we quickly run into these intellectual train wrecks). B. Complete discussions by all ranks and ages---and we ran MDMP even in the 60s but it was creative and free thinking for all until the team was comfortable with the solution. Original content is published under aCreative Commons Licenseper ourTerms of Use. I think your comment actually reinforces RantCorp's point. It discusses the role of the Marine Corps component commander and staff, their functions, and their relationships to the joint force commander and the other Service components. Or, 2. The warfighting functions are the physical means that tactical commanders use to execute operations and accomplish missions assigned by superior tactical- and operational-level commanders. So where are the pilots? It is juxtaposed with Surgical Strike- the other main component for how Special Operations currently differentiate themselves. It is akin to saying "go be an ally to X against Z, but make sure X isn't the only power/influence game in town when you leave". [xxix] Then-Training and Doctrine Command (TRADOC) Commanding General, General Martin E. Dempsey, according to one anonymous School of Advanced Military Studies (SAMS) instructor, told the SAMS authors of the draft design publication that it was too long, had too many big words, and didnt have any of our current doctrinal concepts like Center of Gravity in it. Whether this is true or not, shortly thereafter Dr. Jack Kem wrote a short design booklet (Design: Tools of the Trade) that linked design to doctrine and as soon as LTG William B. Caldwell IV left Fort Leavenworth for Afghanistan and took Dr. Kem with him, the original draft authors quickly published The Art of Design, Student Text 2.0, which attempted to undo the changes that TRADOC reportedly had ordered. The exercise of authority and direction by a properly designated commander over assigned and attached forces in the accomplishment of the mission. So while our enemy understands us, I believe that we have a hard time understanding them insofar as we dont know how to defeat them. Preferably we should take our cues from critical realism and multi-paradigmatic framing and reject the notion that the social realm should be approached using mainly the scientific method and linear logical tools and processes. Dont have the answer, just believe we have been approaching the problem from a myopic viewpoint. On a personal note, I remember when I was in Iraq in 2003, 2004/05, all the internet cafes on the FOBs that allowed our troops lots of free time when they were back inside the wire to communicate with family, friends etc. In addition to having the most advanced medical and surgical techniques of the ancient Americas, the Inca constructed more than 12,00012,00012,000 miles of roadway and aqueducts to supply taxpaying and labor-contributing tribes throughout the empire. The related tasks and systems that move and employ forces to achieve a position of relative advantage over the enemy and other threats. To boot, recent history seems to have muddied the waters on the subject. I know this may sound conspiratorial- but it is largely emergent and unconscious- so it isn't insidious in a malicious way (no intent). Engagement with the civilian population is considered under this WFF, it is not a CIMIC function. How to Protect Mass Graves? Regarding my comment immediately below, this from ADM McRaven may be helpful: "You have the maritime, the ground, and the air domains, and then theres a human domain you have to operate in, and thats the totality of the physical and the cultural environment. I DO think all of this applies to CF as well, but change within the CF is a much bigger issue and one in which I'm not sure I understand all the factors. Any armed group of men funded by anyone can do the ally part. [x] Of course, that does not leave too much left. MCDAPO Team; MCDAPO Current References; MCDAPO Studies; Contact Us; MCDAPO 101; Resources; Headquarters and Service Battalion. And as successful as SF efforts may be locally, they appear to make no headway toward achieving the larger goal of strategic influence of major centers of gravity. Logistics 6. His story was we had been hitting you on every patrol and on this particular day a gun truck patrol came by and I detonated--but nothing happened which was strange as they had always worked---kept trying and then when the last truck went by it detonated. Officers are power point deep on their MDMP- it is fill-in-the-blank thinking- if you can call that "thinking"- since much of it is copied/pasted from higher's OPORDs. What does it mean to have a warfighting culture? You cannot believe how many times I tried to explain that to MNF-I in countless HUMINT reports.. One example may assist in understanding the phenomenon. Where is that quote from? Plus, there has been less friendly fire incidents. We must also firmly ground and continuously educate them in critical and creative thinking. What I find interesting is that Kilcullen was correct in using it---and then say John Robb fleshed it out with his standing orders and his use of the term "open source warfare" which really caused some heartburn in the various agencies. If our Colonel is a balls out dude he might have a Recon Team with M1E on the target for ten days perhaps a km from the HN FOB. It seems rather outlandish to me and reminds me a bit of Marxist literature predicting the rise of the disenfranchised and the oppressed (workers of the world unite!). E. Pre-Columbian cultures did not use plants for decoration. We shouldn't in my opinion be okay with the first time team guys do critical and creative thinking is on their first mission downrange. Indeed, one could make the argument that in todays uber-professional and regimented American military, the only levels in which critical and creative thinking routinely happen are at the tactical level.[xxvi]. In addition, they are more likely to remain fixated on the hyper-tactical level of operations. Russia and Ukraine battle daily in the sky. This next comment sums it up; But, if that statement mirrors the missions SOF receives, then there needs to be a deeper and more meaningful meaning-of-life-come-to-Jesus type conversation that needs to be had in Tampa about what UW/SW is as a tool and how policy shapes its implementation. The problem is that we are attempting to put tacit knowledge- that which is hard or impossible to explain- into the same form (doctrine) as explicit knowledge- that which can be categorized, detailed, and made into a list. In the social realm critical realism still can be applied, but it is not predictive. The Fires WFF includes the indirect fire capabilities organic to the force, such as mortars and artillery. Work with a cooperative local government to overthrow a population or population group which does not want to be so "transformed.". movement of forces for the purpose of gaining an advantage over the enemy in order to accomplish our objectives. Thus they are able to remain mission-focused and results-oriented. IA also includes the sub-function Civil Military Cooperation (CIMIC). Francisco Pizarro, motivated by legends of treasure, captured the Inca ruler Atahualpa during their first meeting. In terms of our personnel system, at the tactical level we make up for the lack of flexibility by being able to rely on young, uninstitutionalized NCOs and officers who, because of the way they are normally deployed, we fortunately find it very difficult to micromanage. You and I are not using logical in the same way, your use of the word seems to be more rigid than mine, probably because I make things up and don't worry too much about formal definitions. Identifies strength and weaknesses, Encompasses all activities required to sustain (beans, bullets, band aids), measures taken to protect friendly forces, management and integration of info, deliberate integration with warfighting functions. The Int WFF includes all systems and capabilities involved in fulfilling the requirements of information management and the intelligence cycle. 7 . The bureaucracy loves its metrics. Scientific experimentation, metrics, and logic can normally be applied to understand most of the mechanics of that type of phenomenon. 2- that this influence undermined the very foundation of our DoD system of systems- which relies on nested purposes and logic from the most tactical all the way up to the President's national security strategy. Like the Aztecs, the Inca practiced human sacrifice and lacked a written language; however, the Inca made up for language shortcomings with advanced architecture and a complex government. I couldn't agree more with this comment- and I think this is one area in which we fail miserably. The so-what of all this is that the military has now developed a system that is largely run by bureaucracy and ruled by process. We have made some fundamental errors trying to do too much and depending on others to provide the reasoning for our actions. Integrate all forms of Army, joint and multinational fires. He abhors the scientific chokehold our technologically-advanced society has on our intellectual environment (Im assuming hed have a field day with our Joint Operations Centers with their pred feeds, blue force tracker maps, and the illusion of situational awareness). If war is the pursuit of one's political objective by other means, then soldiers and statesmen -- long before the enemy -- must know, acknowledge, plan and prepare specifically as relates to this political objective. Will any of these concepts help us to (1) separate the native from his native way of life and native way of governance and help us to (2) attach him and make him dependent upon our way of life and governance? Upon promulgation of Marine Corps I'd say that the art of the sublime would help us in that we would not shy away from admitting these things. I recently read a quote from COL Boyd of Boyd's OODA Loop fame: "The Pentagon has a strategy, and that strategy is maintain the flow of money" (or something to that effect). If you have watched the borderland beat site for over the last few years---we in the watching the failing of a major "democratic" country directly on our immediate border with TCOs driven their trade deeper into the major cities using violence much like AQ in Iraq. Protection efforts must consider and account for threats and hazards in all directions, at all times, and in all environments. Its antithesis is post-positivism, or, as many prefer to call it- especially within the military- critical realism. SF majors who are not selected to be S-3 operations officers for a Group (brigade-level organization) are rarely considered competitive for tactical command, however SF Groups do not fight as Groups, normally SF fights as teams. All the while the SOF boys took on more and more of the smaller scale hunter-killer roles that while certainly physically and technically demanding, didn't seem all that "unconventional". HERE is the issue that was recently discussed with a Robert Bunker over on the SWJ El Centro site. Listed below are the main points from those ideas. This human domain/participatory observation concept looks like it is to be accomplished in times of peace (today and the immediate future?) While that may be correct, I did not list it here because I believe Special Operations itself, uses the six above, which would make it a unit using the system. There was just recently heavy fighting reported initially between the Civilian Defense elements in another area with the local TCO and then the military stepped into between to defend the civilians and it really got into heavy fighting. [xxxvi] This is because, if anything, surgical strike missions are very limited in time and scope and their objectives are clear and unambiguous. Effective maneuver requires close coordination with fires. If two things dont alert us to the possibility that there could be something fundamentally wrong, then possibly nothing will. The American way of war places a premium on the physical aspects of conflict. Special Operations Forces (SOF) have a problem: in order to be more effective in the human domain we have to paradoxically dump the concept. They are a tactical tool that often makes us feel good in achieving temporary gains or waiving the flag. This Warfighting Function is the process of deploying troops to operational areas as well as maneuvering troops, equipment and arms to gain advantage over the enemy. New York: The New Press. It had only a marginal military impact but that was not his intent. Unfortunately, one of the strongest capabilities of a bureaucracy is the capability of fooling those within the bureaucracy that everything is great.[xxi]. It does have a important military purpose. As our operations have shown us, the people we are fighting are often "outsiders" themselves who just happen to be where we are because that's where they can observe and fight us. Thus, given this mission (outlier state and societal transformation) and this problem (the "enemy" can see us coming, so to speak, even before we get on the aircraft), how then might the art and understanding of the sublime help us to overcome these difficulties? The Mexican Constitution itself, in Article 10, makes it very clear. What are the command and control warfighting function tasks? This being, whether they know it yet or not, our young folks' generational project, which has just begun. Let me expand on this somewhat by providing a broader context: The goal is to transform the lesser and remaining outlier states and societies along modern western lines; this, so that they might better benefit from and better provide for the global economy. 2023 KEA - Knowledge Enabled Army. Inca architecture still dots the Andean mountains and highlands as the timeless endeavors of a lost people. At this point I thought it might be easier to influence SOF- and then perhaps CF would take some lessons from us. Easy stuff we were good at. The danger lies with ARSOF copying the U.S. Armys use of physical domain approaches when it comes to the human domain. [xv] COL John Boyd famously said (and I paraphrase): The military has a strategy. ~ IRP Fas. ~ Lightning Press. [xxviii] USASOC, ARSOF 2022, http://www.specialoperations.org/ARSOF2022_vFINAL%5B1%5D.pdf. And, therefore, the point of our spear came to point in their direction. It accomplishes this through adopting measures and conducting actions to reduce the risk posed by adversary, environmental and other threats and hazards. What is the Seventh WfF? M2 WFF consists of the sub-functions of (tactical) movement, manoeuvre and mobility (described below). Pizarro was eventually killed by his own people, but the Inca Empire was forever lost. [xvii] One example of formulaic metaphor found within military doctrine is the formula for combat power. The more conservative/anti-western reform folks -- who represent and defend the non-western way of life and way of governance of a state and society -- these folks are likely to be your natural enemies. Originally a nomadic society inhabiting the central basin of antediluvian Mexico, the various tribes who identified 252525 themselves as Aztec settled in the marshy region near Lake Texcoco and, in 132513251325, founded the city of Tenochtitlan at the present site of Mexico City. As for warfighting potential, the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) asserts a rather broad utility for offensive cyber operations. Regardless of the constructs philosophical issues, why are Special Operations Forces (SOF) pushing for a new Army warfighting function and why is the Army supporting SOF in doing so? [i] Ana Purna gives a good description of critical realism on ehow.com (http://www.ehow.com/info_8770255_critical-realism.html): The major themes are these: A reality exists independent of human conception and perception. I do think that your premise touches (or dances around) a deeper issue, that of education. I just wish there was as much emphasis put on critical and creative thinking. Youve pointed out that in the recent past, US Forces chose to ignore many open source TTPs that the terrorists have put in front of our very noses in such highly visible places such as YouTube and the internet. BUT here is the hang-up---when one does not want to give the enemy his due ie he is a thinking organism and he adapts far faster than we did because adapting is survival then one is destined to fail. Mr. White might be horrified to see his term associated with the military, as he is decidedly anti-militarism. The Human Factor: The Enduring Relevance of Protecting Civilians in Future Wars. Also see Paparone, Chris, COL (ret. Joint Staff Warfighting Capability Analyst. b. Herein, we must be prepared to deal with the vastly increased and very broad and very deep chaos (exs: rebellions, insurgencies, genocide, famine, increased crime, etc., etc., etc.) Strategically, that failure to understand the human factor is the root of the abject failure that the Army, Marines, and SOCOM are determined not to repeat.. Coupled with a chain of command that exploits their multi-generational familial ties, tribal ties and 30 years of shared camaraderie the HN practice a tactical and operational methodology they call Jihad and we call Mission Command. Manage Consent Preferences. Now I wish I would have written something more helpful. [x] U.S. Army, TRADOC Pamphlet 525-3-0, The U.S. Army Capstone Concept, 19 DEC 2012, 15-16. In U.S. doctrine there are today seven joint functions: intelligence, movement and maneuver, fires, information, protec- tion, sustainment, and C2. This website uses cookies to improve your experience. When COL Chamberlin ordered a bayonet charge from the defense he was banking on the fact that it would cause confusion in the enemy conducting the charge. It is the activity involved in the change of location of equipment, personnel or stocks as part of a military operation1 to or within a potentially hostile environment. Your writings are great to read especially coming from the lonely voice on SWJ that once wrote about the need to shift to VSO. Additionally, I do believe that sudying the society/culture you will be operating in is important but if you spend to much time on that and neglect the warfighting side you start to get into an area of diminishing returns. Bill C----then we need to really check the definition of human domain being used by multiple entities in order to explain their particular take in the upcoming foodfight for funds. [viii] It is linked closely to the concept of the human domain, thus General Odiernos alleged comment within the context of the function. We in the military, in my opinion, follow the Behavioralist school of political theory as an institution- quite consciously, are unconscious Positivists in philosophical outlook- both individually and institutionally, and yet we pretend to be Rational Choice Theorists. As part of capacity building, engagement with Host Nation Security Forces (HNSF) may form part of the CIMIC aspect of the IA WFF area of responsibility. The second is related to the first. Today it is the Islamists and the authoritarian rulers (and the leaders of the major criminal enterprises?) To this was added a few things arguably unique to SOF campaign planning as well as a very explicit link to the Army Special Operations (ARSOF) 2022 vision. Actually making these things happen in the face of the current drawdown, our relatively recent infatuation with technology and the inexplicable application of physical domain concepts to the human domain, however, will be a herculean task. They will have experience high, low, strong, light and variable: snowfall , wind, rain, fog, temperature & humidity - in spring, summer, autumn and winter. I seriously doubt it. Critical realism can be used to describe current or past situations. That Special Operations is just now getting around in my opinion to being in the same boat is a reflection of two occurrences: the 1987 establishment of Special Operations as a 4-star command and the large growth in Special Operations since 9/11. Ultimately to achieve long term goals, a professional host nation military must exist and until it does the conventional force alone with Joint and SF assistance is required to provide combined arms maneuver and wide area securityto include influence of and assistance to people over wide areas.
