Naval Aviation forces are forward, engaged and ready-every day. Expeditionary forces, amphibious forces, nuclear-powered aircraft carriers, air wings, manned and unmanned platforms, rotary- and fixed-wing aircraft are on station, valued and in increasingly higher demand. No other service or community can deliver the capabilities Naval Aviation brings in support of our national interests. It is a national priority to sustain, resource and ultimately expand these capabilities to ensure that when called, Naval Aviation is at the hold short, takeoff checks complete... Ready to Go. This publication is part of the roadmap to ensuring Naval Aviation possesses the readiness, capabilities and capacity to deliver on the five essential functions outlined in the maritime strategy-All Domain Access, Deterrence, Sea Control, Power Projection and Maritime Security-are missions that depend upon Naval Aviation to guarantee their success. It is essential that our vision fully supports and aligns to this cooperative strategy.

Dissemination management involves dissemination priorities, selection of dissemination means, and monitoring the flow of intelligence throughout the command. The objective of dissemination management is to deliver the required intelligence to the appropriate user in the proper form at the right time, while ensuring that individual consumers and the dissemination system are not overloaded by attempting to move unneeded or irrelevant information. Dissemination management also provides for the use of security controls, which do not impede the timely delivery or subsequent use of intelligence, while protecting intelligence sources and methods.

Marine Corps Warfighting Publication MCWP 2-10 Formerly MCWP 2-1 US Marine Corps 2 May 2016, builds on the doctrinal foundation established in Marine Corps Doctrinal Publication (MCDP) 2, Intelligence.

This manual contains basic and advanced training and techniques for static line parachuting. It is designed to standardize procedures for initial qualification and training of personnel in their duties and responsibilities in airborne operations. The jumpmaster, assistant jumpmaster, safeties, DACO, DZSTL, and DZSO occupy key positions in airborne operations. The initial training and qualifications of these personnel designated to occupy those critical positions are contained in this manual. SOF unit personnel must meet the requirements for static line parachuting contained in this manual as well as provide special training and instruction for nonstandard equipment, aircraft, and personnel procedures. These procedures are documented in FM 31-19, FM 31- 24, FM 31-25, and USASOC Reg 350-2. Individual service components that deviate from this manual due to unique mission requirements will use approved procedures, techniques, equipment, and equipment-attaching methods specified by their respective service.

This publication is intended for officers and enlisted personnel who are involved with the direction, planning, and execution of ground reconnaissance missions. It is also designed to assist commanders and staffs of all Marine air-ground task force (MAGTF) units with integrating ground reconnaissance into all other planning and operations. Relevant to the employment of ground reconnaissance at all echelons of command from the infantry battalion to the Marine expeditionary force, MCWP 2-25 defines the organization, roles, operational requirements, mission tasks, battlefield functions, and command and control relationships of reconnaissance assets within the MAGTF.

Today's Marines operate within a continuum of force where conflict may change from low intensity to high intensity over a matter of hours. Marines are also engaged in many military operations other than war, such as peacekeeping missions or noncombatant evacuation operations, where deadly force may not be authorized. During noncombative engagements, Marines must determine if a situation warrants applying deadly force. Sometimes Marines must decide in a matter of seconds because their lives or the lives of others depend on their actions. To make the right decision, Marines must understand both the lethal and nonlethal close combat techniques needed to handle the situation responsibly without escalating the violence unnecessarily. Marine Corps Reference Publication (MCRP) 3-02B, Close Combat, provides the tactics, techniques, and procedures of Marine Corps close combat. It also provides the doctrinal basis for the Marine Corps Close Combat Training Program (MCCCTP).

It takes much more than the knowledge and skills to build shelters, get food, make fires, and travel without the aid of standard navigational devices to live successfully through a survival situation. Some people with little or no survival training have managed to survive life-threatening circumstances. Some people with survival training have not used their skills and died. A key ingredient in any survival situation is the mental attitude of the individual(s) involved. Having survival skills is important; having the will to survive is essential. Without a desk to survive, acquired skills serve little purpose and invaluable knowledge goes to waste.

The US has renounced first use of herbicides in war except under regulations applicable to domestic use or for control of vegetation within US bases and installations and around their immediate perimeters.
