To fight and win the nation's wars

The capacity of the Armed Forces to operate as a cohesive joint team is a key advantage in any operational environment. Unity of effort facilitates decisive unified action focused on national objectives and leads to common solutions to national security challenges. (Ref. JP1, Pg. I­1)

• Advancing our interests to strengthen security relationships/capacity with mil forces of partner nations, US/foreign and state/local government agencies, and intergovernmental or nongovernmental organizations.
• Refine and proportionally integrate the military with all of the tools of American power and work with our partner nations to do the same

Synchronization, coordination, and integration of mil ops with the activities of other governmental and nongovernmental organizations to achieve unity of effort.

A comprehensive approach (broader connotation than “Jt ops”) that synchronizes, coordinates, and integrates military ops (when appropriate) with the activities of other gov and NGOs, IGOs (e.g., the UN), and the private sector to achieve unity of effort.

• Achieves unity of effort.
• Creates synergistic effects. 
• Achieve national strategic objectives/political end states.
• When integrated into Jt ops with partner military Services and other defense, logistical, and intelligence agencies, they become capable of unified action.
• Successful joint operations merge capabilities and skill sets of assigned Service components.
• Interoperability and effective integration of service capabilities enhance joint operations to accomplish US Gov objective(s), building on US traditions of conducting joint operations that began with the Revolutionary War.

​Roles to support U.S. combatant commands is outlined in a Memorandum of Agreement signed by the Secretaries of Defense and Transportation in 1995. Maritime intercept operations, deployed port operations/security and defense, peacetime engagement, and environmental defense operations (ST­1, Page 1­21 thru 1­22)

• Coastal sea control
• Maritime and air interception/interdiction
• Maritime homeland security and counterterrorism
• Port operations, security and defense
• Maritime operational threat response
• Counter­illicit trafficking operations

• The Complex Environment: multitude of actors (state/non­state); lack of effective governance or rule of law; politically fragmented; increasingly urbanized
• Evolving Conflicts: ​Complex causes; often unconstrained by borders or governments; requirement for discriminate lethality; blurred transition between phases, more actors enabled by advanced weaponry
• Future Force Characteristics: ​depth & versatility; adaptive & innovative; flexible & agile; integrated & synchronized; scalable and tailorable; lethal & discriminate; modernized & networked

• Unity of command
• Synergy from integration/synchronization of Service components’ capabilities (in time, space, and purpose) under a single JFC maximizes the effectiveness and efficiency of the force 
• Advance and defend US values and interests
• Achieve objectives consistent with national strategy
• Conclude ops on terms favorable to the US 
• Advantages extend beyond the operational environment and across the range of military operations

• C2­: Establish, Organize and operate a Joint Forces HQ
• Intel:­ Collection of data; analysis of information and production of intelligence
• Movement and Maneuver:­ Deploy, shift, regroup or move joint force formations within the operational area by any means or mode (air, sea, and land)
• Fires: Provide joint fire support
• Protection: Establishing antiterrorism programs
• Sustainment­: Movement, evacuation, and hospitalization of personnel

• C2:­ Establish appropriate command authorities among subordinate commands 
• Intel:­ Evaluation and feedback regarding intelligence effectiveness and quality 
• Movement and Maneuver:­ Control significant areas in the operational area whose possession or control provides either side an operational advantage 
• Fires:­ Assess the results of employing fires 
• Protection:­ Providing emergency management and response capabilities and services 
• Sustainment:­ Operational Contract Support (OCS)

• USAF: Integrity, Service, Excellence.
• Joint Values: Duty, Honor, Courage, Integrity, Selfless Service Values​.
• The Profession of Arms demands its members live by the values described in the "City on the Hill" metaphor. We must provide an example to the world that cannot be diminished by hardships and challenges. This example is based upon the words and intent of the US Constitution that each of us takes a personal oath to support and defend. Our oath demands each of us display moral courage and always do what is right, regardless of the cost. We are all volunteers in our willingness to serve and to place others' needs above our own. As shared values, our calling cards are Duty, Honor, Courage, Integrity, and Selfless Service. Commitment to the rule of law is integral to our values which provide the moral and ethical fabric of our profession.
