  1. Protection Tier 1 Definition: The ability to prevent/mitigate adverse effects of attacks on personnel (combatant/non-combatant) and physical assets of the United States, allies and friends. • Issues: • Seam between Protection and Force Application, particularly in regards to offensive measures taken to prevent an attack. Combating WMD community want Elimination to remain a tier 4. Aspects of “Mission” visibility, aspects of Capability Portfolio Management as of: 20 Jul 07

  2. Force Application Level 1 Definition: The ability to integrate the use of maneuver and engagement to create the effects necessary to achieve mission objectives. • Issues: • FA & Influence, particularly in the area of Information Operations. Force Application feels strongly that Electronic Attack and Computer Network Attack are applied force and not within the Influence definition. • FA and Logistics still need to agree on the wording of where movement ends and maneuver begins (probably when unit being moved is in a combat ready formation). • Joint Targeting is a seam between w/ BA & C2. • Combat Engineering is a seam with Logistics; not sure where enhancing mobility/counter-mobility fit in the construct. • Seam with Protection mentioned above.

  3. Influence Level 1 Definition: The ability to shape the decisions, action, and/or perceptions of key leaders and relevant populations by delivering thematic messages and conducting activities in order to advance the interests of the USG and its key partners, while strengthening key U.S. international relationships. • Issues: • Influence is the least well-understood tier 1 JCA. It lacks mature source documents such as doctrine, schoolhouse literature, etc. to draw on. • Seam with Force Application. This was initially worked out during the phase 1 of the JCABR by the inclusion of “enemy” in the Force Application definition, and its absence in the Influence definition. This amounted to meaning anything done to influence enemies belonged in Force Application, and influencing all others belonged to Influence. This relationship is being revisited to determine the best way to distinguish between these two tier 1 JCAs.
