Imagery Rescripting & EMDR for Childhood Trauma
Recent research (Boterhoven De Haan et. al., 2020) has shown both EMDR and Imagery Rescripting as being effective in the treatment for childhood related PTSD. The presentation is a must of anyone interested in knowing effective trauma treatments.
IREM was an international multi-centre RCT which compared EMDR and ImRs for adults with PTSD from childhood trauma. Over 155 participants participated in the IREM trial which found significant reductions in PTSD and other symptoms such as depression, dissociation, and trauma-related cognitions. Overall there was only a 7.7% treatment dropout rate and treatment gains were maintained with 81% of participants not meeting PTSD criteria at the 1-year post-treatment follow up.
This trial was the first of its kind and demonstrated that both Imagery Rescripting and EMDR are effective in treating childhood trauma and that stabilisation is not required.
Learning Objectives
· Knowledge of recent findings into Imagery and EMDR.
· Understanding how EMDR and Imagery description can be used to treat childhood trauma and PTSD.
· How these trauma approaches work in treating trauma.
Presenters: Katrina Boterhoven De Haan & Chris Hayes

Surrey have finished fifth in the South Group of the Vitality Blast, narrowly missing out on qualification for the knock out stages.
Yesterday's results, particularly Hampshire's aggressive chase of 184 from just thirteen overs to defeat Glamorgan, means Surrey miss out on the top four on run rate, ending the competition with a NRR of 0.332, compared to Hampshire's 0.388 – a number that was significantly boosted by the speed of their victory.
Surrey will next be in action on Thursday, against Yorkshire at Scarborough in the opening round of the Royal London One Day Cup group stage, a fifty over match. Action starts at 11am and a live stream will be provided by our hosts on the Yorkshire CCC YouTube channel, which will also be carried on the Surrey CCC website.

The results are in….Hamilton is the winner of the 2009 HBS Reduce Your Juice Electricity Competition! It was a fight until the end, but Hamilton outperformed Gallatin with a 4% reduction in the last week making their average reduction for the competition 3.5%. Congratulations Hamilton!
In total, the 5 HBS dorms made a notable impact on the school's electricity consumption. If we keep our energy conserving behaviors up throughout the year, we can reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 10 metric tons of carbon dioxide. This is equivalent to saving 1,020 gallons of gasoline, 21 barrels of oil and $3,600 per year. (Source: EPA Greenhouse Gas Equivalencies Calculator and Office for Sustainability).

GSU Update
The Geography Student Union has had a challenging but exciting past couple of years. When classes moved online, so did our meetings and events. Throughout the Fall 2020, Spring 2021, and Summer 2021 terms, we hosted virtual games nights, movie nights, a zero-waste craft workshop, and more. We also sold some more GSU-themed merchandise, including masks and 'Reunite Pangea' tote bags. Our group particularly appreciated the opportunity to get involved in hiring decisions, and we participated in professor interviews for December 2020 and April 2021. During the Summer of 2021, we began creating a geography undergraduate research journal.
In Fall 2021, we began the transition back to in-person activities, with our first in-person event since the trip to Seattle in 2020. We collaborated with other Environment Student Unions to create a paddling event for new first-year students. Our second event was a bowling night which was a success. Meeting up with other students at our bowling night was a chance to socially reconnect and engage with student life since many of them began their degrees online. We've also refurbished our common room with some new maps and games (sadly, some of the plants did not survive the pandemic!).
Our group is particularly looking forward to our Experiential Learning Trip (ELT) in April 2022, which is a joint collaboration with the Environmental Science Student Union and the Bachelor of Environment Student Union. We will be exploring Tofino, Ucluelet, Port Alberni and Cathedral Grove Provincial Park where we will learn about Vancouver Island's landform and ecosystem. This will be our first ELT since our trip to Seattle in February of 2020 which took place a few weeks before lockdown.
We are excited for the year to come! Feel free to connect with us on our Instagram to stay updated about our activities and events.

Mainpat Weather And Best Time To Visit Mainpat
Mainpat, a small hill station in the northern part of Chhattisgarh is also known by the name of 'Mini Tibet'. This hill station is situated on a plateau in the district of Sarguja. The hilltop is covered with dense forests, waterfalls and lovely landscapes that makes the place quite popular for a vacation. Weather in Mainpat is way cooler than the other cities in Chhattisgarh. Since the hill station is packed with greenery and is also on a higher altitude, the climate here is more or less cool throughout the year. Although summers can get a little hot, the monsoons and winters make for the best time to visit Mainpat. Below is a list of the seasons in Mainpat and their descriptions, so that you can plan your trip better.
Summer (April-June)
Usually summer season in any place is the hottest season one can imagine and it is the same story here in Mainpat. Although hot, Mainpat is a tad cooler in summers than the other cities in the state and this is due to its altitude and location. Summers in Mainpat start in the month of April and stretch all the way until June. Temperatures during this time are the highest in the hill station and range from an average high of 38°C to an average low of 30°C. These temperatures are less brutal from the rest of the state. But in the recent years, summers have been hotter throughout the country and temperatures rise to about 42°C. To sightsee during this season, start your day early and finish off seeing most places during the early hours.
Monsoon (July-October)
After the scorching heat of summer, comes the beautiful season of rain. The monsoon season is one of the best times to visit Mainpat and the temperatures are cool along with light showers. During this season, temperatures range from a high of 32°C to a low of 23°C in the night time. As you can imagine, these temperatures are perfect to go sightseeing, especially if you don't disagree with the rains. The landscape of this hill station during monsoon becomes absolutely stunning; lush green meadows, long trees and cool winds are some of the things you can see and feel during this time. On some days you can simply sit back at your hotel room and gaze at the beauty of the place from your balcony.
Winter (November-March)
One of the best seasons to visit Mainpat is during winters that start in the last week of October and stay until March. This is the longest season and also the most appropriate one to go and enjoy the hill station. Temperatures during this time range from an average high of 15°C in the daytime to average low of 8°C in the night time. Some winters are really cold and temperatures may dip down even further to 4°C. These temperatures are quite cold and one must carry appropriate clothing to safeguard themselves. This is a season where you can go sightseeing without sweating and getting tired, hence being one of the best times to come.

Troy Aikman considers whether Cowboys should stick with Cooper Rush even when Dak Prescott returns
At the moment, there's no quarterback controversy in Dallas. Cowboys owner Jerry Jones has said veteran Dak Prescott will reclaim the starting job once he's able to grip a football properly in his recovery from the broken thumb he suffered five weeks ago.
However, Hall of Fame Cowboys quarterback Troy Aikman doesn't think the decision is that simple.
Dallas has won its last four games with backup Cooper Rush running the offense. And if Rush could lead the Cowboys to a victory over the undefeated Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday, Aikman said, "You start asking the question, 'Do we put Dak back in?'
"Considering what they've been able to do and how they've been able to win games with Cooper Rush, I think that becomes a real question the organization has to answer."

Aikman made the comments during his weekly radio appearance on 96.7 The Ticket in Dallas.
"I went through this back in 1991, when Steve Beuerlein came in and won the last five games of the regular season and I was ready to play," Aikman recalled. "Jimmy stayed with Steve in the postseason and I wasn't happy about it."
Long-term though, AIkman said there's no question who the starter should be.
"Dak is the quarterback of this franchise. I love the guy. And they're better with Dak at quarterback, but the team is playing good football right now."

Convertibles at a SAAB festival some years ago with my Silver 9-3
It has come to the knowledge of SU that the SaabInt16 meeting in Vadstena has made a lot of Swedish SAAB entusiasts upset. The reasons why is primarily that the Swedish SAAB Clubs members are not invited to participate in the event. Club members can get limited access by working for the event organization and get a T-shirt basically. The cost for the meeting is set to 150 EUROS a sum that no previous SAAB meeting has reached up to. One wonders what could cost so much. I have spoken to some Swedish SAAB enthusiasts and collectors and they do not feel invited and are not going to participate at all. This obvious exclusion of Swedish SAAB people is worrying. One guy called me and said the only reason now to be a member is the get the special old-timer insurance through MHRF. I feel sorry for the prospective international visitors who will come to sweden and will not get to meet with so many swedes as they have used to do at previous SAAB meetings in our country.
An intersting alternative for swedish and foreign SAAB enthusiasts would be to gather in Trollhättan on the extended weekend of june 5-6. This is an interesting weekend since the 6th is the Swedish National Day. But not only that but also the BIG national automotive celebration day. Virtually every car club in sweden is engaged in some activities this day.
The Saab Club is no exception. This year they will join forces with the Volvo Club in a really nice activity. It all starts at 09:00 with a gathering at the SAAB car museum in Trollhättan. Around 11:00 the drive / rally starts with the finish at the Volvo Museum in Gothenburg /Göteborg a 1-2 hour drive depending on what activities are on the road. The cost for this event is 200 SEK. I visualize that foreign Saab enthusiast without a car can ride "shotgun" with fellow Swedish Saabpeople who would gladly share some space in their cars and split the fuel bill. When the meeting is over in Gothenburg I would guess a lot of Saabers will head back to Trollhättan. This day would certainly be a memorable day for an Saab enthusiasts. Saabs and Volvos in a shared event on the National day with flags parades etc. Besides that it is usually good weather and the nights are bright and short.
If this sounds like a good idea I bet we could arrange a meeting at the Saab Car Museum on the day before Sunday the 5th. Just a nice gathering with cars and possibly a trunk/swap meet.
This is an idea that could be done without a BIG organization and lots of money. It is just about on the day 2 months to the day. So what do You think?

[crowdsignal poll=10599499]
Crammed in the back of a two-seater plane, Roger Stevens Jr. of Lincoln spotted more than 100 moose while soaring over the woods of northern Maine last weekend. A wildlife photographer and lover of flying, he couldn't have been more excited.
"It was the most incredible experience," Stevens said. "I never would have thought there were that many moose around."
Hanging his camera lens out of the plane's open window, Stevens captured hundreds of photographs, as well as video clips, of moose as they lumbered through areas recently harvested for timber. With these images and videos, he's sharing his experience on Facebook with others who might not be so keen on hurtling over the treetops in a lightweight plane.
"I just love it, but it's not for everybody," Stevens said. "[The pilot] said that most people who go up in the plane to take photographs don't last very long because of the motion [making them sick]."
The pilot of the flights, Nathan Theriault, is a registered Maine guide and the owner of OMM Outfitters, based out of Eagle Lake in Aroostook County. On Friday, Saturday and Sunday, he took Stevens up over Fort Kent and the surrounding area in his Husky A-1B, a tandem-seat bush plane designed for exploring the backcountry.

"We were in the air before the sun came up," Stevens said. "We had to have the perfect wind and weather for it."
The lighter the wind, the easier it was to maneuver the plane at low altitudes and keep the ride smooth, Stevens explained. Fog delayed their flight on Saturday, but otherwise, the weather was perfect.
The best time to find moose out in the open was between 6 and 8 a.m., Stevens said. As the sun rose higher in the sky, the animals disappeared into the woods. That left them only a short window to search, but it was more than enough. In just two hours on Sunday, they spotted 72 moose, two bears and seven deer. And over the course of three days, Stevens believes they spotted over 125 moose, though it's difficult to know if you've counted the same moose twice.
At first, the moose appeared as little black dots in a sea of green and brown, Stevens explained. To photograph them, he used a 150-600 millimeter camera lens, which is a zoom lens that is frequently used by wildlife photographers to shoot subjects that are far away.
"That's why you look like you could ride them on their backs," Stevens said. "But we really weren't that close to them."

In fact, the moose didn't seem to mind the plane at all, Stevens said. On the other hand, the bears they saw hightailed it in the opposite direction.
"I learned a lot about flying and moose a lot in a short amount of time," Stevens said. "I don't like the rides at the fair, but I could [ride in that plane] all day."
A professional wildlife photographer for the past 21 years, Stevens has published eight books of his photos and stories, the most popular of which are "June the Loon: The Story of a Maine Loon Chick" (2014) and "Maine Moose on the Loose" (2015). Currently, he's working on a hardcover coffee table book of moose photographs, and he hopes that his trips to Aroostook County can contribute to that project.
In addition to returning to Aroostook County to photograph moose this fall, Stevens is interested in working with Theriault longterm to make moose photography tours more accessible in the Fort Kent area — both by plane and foot.
"Up in around Fort Kent, they have a huge moose population," Stevens said. "And the scenery up there is just beautiful … I'll tell you, there are people who go all over the world on safaris. We should be tapping that market."

Northern Maine is already a destination for big game hunters, Stevens said, and wildlife photography is a very similar activity. Both avid hunters and photographers are often willing to travel to find specific animals and outdoor experiences, hiring guides and spending money on lodging, food and gear in the process.
"Instead of hanging a head on the wall, [in photography] you place a giant, beautiful picture on the wall," he said. "I call it catch and release hunting."
Stevens' recent adventures up north wouldn't have happened if it wasn't for COVID-19, he said. Other years he's tied up showing his photography and books at the Fryeburg Fair. This year, when the event was canceled due to the pandemic, he decided to treat himself to a guided wildlife tour instead.
And he's happy he did. Now he knows firsthand just how many moose the Fort Kent region has to offer, plus he's formed a connection with a knowledgeable local guide.
Sometimes when one door closes, another one opens. In this case, it was the door of a two-seater plane and an unforgettable weekend of moose seeking by sky.


text: LV0010 LAUNCH INVESTIGATION UPDATESEPTEMBER 28, 2022The team has made significant progress in the investigation into the LV0010 early shutdown of the upper stage. Our investigation process consists of four core steps:Flight Data ReviewTimeline ReconstructionFault Tree AnalysesImplementing Corrective and Preventative ActionsWe have completed steps #1 and #2, and are nearing completion of step #3. Weve determined that the upper stage shut down early due to a higher-than-normal fuel consumption rate. Through the review of flight data, reconstruction of flight timelines, and the construction of an extensive fault tree, we have narrowed the root cause to an issue with the upper stage engine. We have also completed many rounds of ground testing, including multiple tests that yielded results consistent with the failure condition in flight.The team is conducting additional experiments to verify the root cause before wrapping up the investigation with the FAA. We are focused on conducting an exhaustive investigation and ensuring that we extract all lessons learned.Once the investigation is finished, we look forward to sharing our lessons learned in a future blog post.

How is a student managed on a daily basis?
Each student has a mentor. The mentor is someone experienced in Scilab development. He/she is the main contact of the student but the student is encouraged to send his questions on the Scilab developer/gsoc mailing list. If your mentor does not know the answer to your question, since he/she is familiar with Scilab development, he/she will forward your question to the best person in the team.
Before the GSoC
See How to apply to the GSOC ?
At the beginning of the GSoC
Before or during the first week of the GSoC, the student will have to write a Scilab Enhancement Proposal (SEP) explaining the goal(s) of the project. If the GSoC initial proposal is good (which is likely to be case since the student has been selected), a copy/paste with some modifications should be enough.
During the GSoC
Technical aspects
The code should be available on Scilab Forge or in a dedicated Scilab branch if relevant.
- Commit to the VCS (git) should be done on a daily basis (if it does not break the compilation/work).
Regarding the mentor, the code might be reviewed by the mentor team through the Code Review platform of Scilab (See gerrit for more information or ask on the mailing list).
- The mentor, the student and the GSoC admins will receive a daily report of the modification.
- Most of the mentors are available on the Scilab IRC channel (#scilab on OFTC) at office hours
- Check if your mentor but communication with IM (jabber, MSN, ...) or IRC might be required.
- At the end of every week, a weekly feedback of the week should be done on the GSoC Scilab mailing list and/or wiki. Note that it is required to make sure that a student is not stuck. This is intended to make sure everything runs smoothly.
I am stuck and I do not know what to do?
Contact your mentor ASAP, it is his role and he will be happy to help you.
I did not get any answer from my mentor, what should I go?
Everybody is busy. If you are stuck, do not wait and send the email on the dev or the gsoc mailing list. If it is not urgent, you can send the question to your mentor. However, if you do not get an answer in a couple of days, please contact the Scilab/GSoC admin (firstname.lastname@example.com and firstname.lastname@example.com).

The solitary projects of looking an online dating app for a possible companion have technically grow to be a cultural event.
Labeled as glass and swipe couples, good friends gathering – drink within palm, mobile fully charged, going out with application of preference open in the different – and group-help both identify her after that romance.
It really is eye-opening, enlightening at hours can simulate a group-therapy appointment, of kinds.
Not long ago I met up in my going-out close friends Drydon Chow, Claudia McNeely, Vanessa Wicktorczyk so it can have a go. We picked these specific family as they are all individual and looking, open-minded and so aren't recognized to chew his or her tongues.
All of us fulfilled right up at hogar La Palma, an innovative new establishment through the city's west conclusion. We purchased temporary cocktails and cozied on the modular recliner from inside the sunken living room area by your fire place. They thought homey – an ideal environment to sip and swipe.
All us – all in the late 20s and earlier 30s – was looking for a different sort of variety of romance along with various internet dating programs to swipe through.
Having been on the buddy portion of Bumble, appropriately called Bumble BFF, wanting to make a new female buddy beyond your area near wherein our boyfriend resides. I am not sure anybody else in this bonnet and figured it would be nice getting a freelancer buddy to your job together with throughout weekday or even to grab an after-work enjoy with. Chow was looking for a guy to keep your from a long-running situationship – an "are we or are certainly not all of us?" enchanting entanglement. His own dating application, Chappy, means homosexual as well as is co-founded by, get this, Ollie Locke of this Brit television television series manufactured in Chelsea fame. McNeely and Wicktorczyk were each in pursuit of a meaningful connection or possible long-lasting enchanting connections on Raya, a private, membership-based online dating application.
With this time whenever we're all very active and bogged down, putting away the amount of time involving this simply gets rid of any delay, it propels that you follow through on the purpose. At the same, gain assistance and suggestions from those family members to you – some of they close, some wish, some stinging.
She would be suitable. Chow must create about his own worries aided by the dude he's really been flippantly observing, it had not been until they spoken they which he became aware exactly how in limbo the connection ended up being.
"easily'm experiencing a person correctly, you have chemistry with him and like him, but he isn't offering you what you want. There's really no persistence and you also don't know for those who'll determine him or her subsequent. And also, since there's no other product through the pic, we enable your pull off they," we believed.
"whenever you place it by doing this, you are completely best," Chow explained. They took an intense breath and noiselessly identified the biggest aha time.
McNeely explained to me that swiping with pals keeps converted "the at times disappointing chore of online dating into some thing fun. It becomes a casino game plus one to smile about along with your contacts."
She in addition highly valued the reviews about recently available going out with choices. These activities generally increase conversations of one's dating history and goof ups and work as a group-therapy workout of sorts. This may easily stop the exact same very poor romance actions generated whenever swiping on the lonesome.
Have the current inside your mail
But there are also drawbacks these types of get-togethers.
An excessive amount liquid nerve and you may contact an accommodate not-out of genuine fees although magic aftereffect of having on "beer googles." Men and women will look more appealing as soon as drinks levels arises. There is also the personal pressure level of being also picky or perhaps not chosey adequate.
Chow was obtaining games in comparison to rest of us during the two-hour get-together – probably since he had not been finding something major.
The guy grabbed simple invite for the sip and swipe gathering as an opportunity to add himself right back available to you.
"today, I'm really shopping for newer partners when definitely that biochemistry and association, then maybe a relationship."
As we swiped and discussed our picks and working plan, multiple lady within pub overheard our discussion and that I called these to sign up with united states. The advantage of becoming out and swiping outdoors is that you could fulfill some one in the real world. On the list of ladies given me personally the girl mobile, and that I swiped for prospective friends on her behalf, as well.

The UK has introduced new measures for the import of the most important Xylella host plants. As a result, certain trade is no longer possible. The European Commission has made an objection.
The new British measures has come into force on 21 April. Only a few days before, authorities from foreign countries have been informed by the UK government. The new measures against Xylella are actually no surpise. But the timing is quite remarkable, just when the trade is suffering corona measures including closed UK garden centres.

My son loves going to karate he really enjoys Master Garwood
This is by far the best martial arts studio in the DFW. They focus on teaching a fundamental style of Tang Soo Do that is historically accurate and well structured. It is a safe environment where students are taught technique and control, rather than how to beat someone up like other schools. Additionally, Sa Bom Nim, teaches his students respect, self control, good manners, how to focus on the task at hand, and to complete whatever task they have committed to. I would never have left if it weren't for having to move halfway way across the state.
Master Garwood is top notch! From his expertise to his ability to help more challenged students to his commands of the class - he took a couch potato that was overweight and not that interested and turned her into a Tang Soo Do-loving black belt mama! Highly recommend for all ages!!
This is a great environment with my values that can be instilled in members/families of all ages.
When you first enroll into our program we will work privately with you for the first couple weeks. After that you will join with other students in a class enviroment.

While in High School I was asked to fill in for an instructor at a school in Cashmere WA. because the teacher was taking over another school in larger town. The student liked me so much that they asked their instructor to let me take over full time.
I have worked with students of varing ages from 4yrs and up. We generally accept students at 5yrs or older. I have also worked with many adults as well as students with mild forms of Autism.
We recently were honored by the City of Watauga for being a valued business in hteir city for 15years and we held an Open House to celebrate.
I would say that the most important thing about hiring a Martial Arts instructor is to feel comfortable with the person who will be teaching you or your children. Especlially in the case children a Martial arts Instructor can have a profound influence on a child so ask yourself this question: IF my child starts to mimic this person is that a good thing or a bad thing.
I think it is important to view the school you will be looking to enroll into. Many schools out there only care about the money you will pay them and once you are enrolled they will no longer care about you or your needs. Therefore take a trial class or view thier classes and see how skilled the students are. Talk to the instructor and get a feel for him as a person you may begin to look up to. Its important that you fell a sense of family.

Chapter 2
The Strategic and Joint
Operational Environment
The National Security Environment
We are a strong Nation. America wields strength and influence through the instruments of national power-diplomatic, informational, economic, and military-as it seeks to shape the international environment in pursuit of our enduring interests. America remains the most potent military power in the world, and The Army provides most its land forces.
The end of the Cold War did not, as some anticipated, make the world a safer place. Instead, it exposed several points of stress around the globe where American interests might be threatened. Threats to American security and interests have become more diffuse, harder to anticipate, and more difficult to combat than ever before. A growing number of borderless threats-including terrorism, narcotics trafficking, and organized crime-complicate the strategic environment, making our challenges less predictable.
Although the threat of a global war has subsided for now, the need for sustained military power, particularly land power, has increased. Since 1990, Army deployments in support of military operations other than war have increased dramatically, while the possibility of major theater wars remains. Even though day-to-day operations now consume substantial time, energy, and resources, The Army must always be prepared to fight the Nation's wars. Being demonstrably prepared to fight and win will reduce the likelihood of having to do so.
The Army supports the United States' national security strategy and foreign policy throughout the spectrum of conflict by providing the National Command Authorities a flexible force with broad, conventional deterrent capabilities. When directed, The Army conducts offensive, defensive, stability, and support operations. The Army supports the combatant commanders' theater engagement plans in peacetime-maintaining permanently stationed and rotationally deployed troops overseas, conducting peacetime engagement activities, and participating in multinational training exercises. It accomplishes these missions by active, daily engagement with the militaries, governments, and civilian populations of other nations. The Army provides land forces to combatant commanders for major theater war, smaller-scale contingencies, and peacetime military engagement.
When directed by the National Command Authorities, The Army conducts operations in response to requests from the United Nations or other treaty organizations. As a by-product of its superb training and readiness, The Army can build alliances and coalitions and serve as a role model for militaries in emerging democracies.
The presence of Soldiers gives combatant commanders a flexible and versatile capability for influencing regional stability. Soldiers-on the ground-demonstrate commitment by the United States. For this reason, The Army provides the bulk of overseas presence and peacetime engagement forces in support of the national security strategy. Despite these proactive measures, deterrence sometimes fails. When it does, The Army is committed to fighting and winning-decisively.
Enduring National Interests
The Constitution of the United States sets forth the national purpose in these words:
We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution of the United States of America.
These broad, enduring national goals are expressed more specifically in terms of national interests, which provide the basis for national security policies. The following national security objectives have remained essentially unchanged since the late 1940s:
- To preserve the sovereignty of our Nation, with its values, institutions, and territory intact.
- To protect U.S. citizens at home and abroad.
- To provide for the common welfare and economic prosperity of our Nation and citizens.
National Military Strategy Formulation
This Nation can afford to be strong-it cannot afford to be weak. We shall do what is needed to make and keep us strong.
President John F. Kennedy
The President is responsible for national security. The National Security Council assists the President in determining how best to employ the instruments of national power in pursuit of national goals. The National Security Council coordinates the efforts of all government agencies to form a coherent national security strategy. The National Command Authorities-consisting of the President and the Secretary of Defense, or their authorized alternates-exercise authority over the armed forces through the combatant commanders for forces assigned to the combatant commanders and through the chiefs of the services for other forces.
The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, in his capacity as the principal military advisor to the National Security Council, prepares the national military strategy. He does this in consultation with the Secretary of Defense, the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and the combatant commanders. The national military strategy contains the advice of the Chairman and the Joint Chiefs of Staff on the strategic direction of the armed forces in implementing the national security strategy. The Chairman, on behalf of the Secretary of Defense, directs the combatant commanders to develop theater engagement plans as well as theater war and contingency plans.
National Military Objectives
Our national military objectives are to promote peace and stability, to deter conflict, and, when necessary, to defeat adversary forces in combat. These objectives defend and protect U.S. national interests.
Within the context of the national security strategy, the armed forces of the United States execute the national military strategy. The Army, with the other services and multinational partners, must be prepared to fulfill its essential role in our collective security.
The national military strategy is fundamentally expeditionary in nature. It includes strategic responsiveness, overseas presence, power projection, and decisive action. Joint Publication 3-0, Doctrine for Joint Operations, defines an expedition as "a military operation conducted by an armed force to accomplish a specific objective in a foreign country." To achieve our national security objectives, our armed forces must be able to deter or defeat enemy forces on land, in space, in the air, or at sea, whether by unified or joint action.
No government will be disposed to violate our rights if it knows that we have the means and are prepared and resolved to defend them.
President James Monroe
The Army in Unified Action-Joint, Multinational, and Interagency Operations
The Army executes missions throughout the range of military operations and across the spectrum of conflict. Employing Army forces at the right place and time allows combatant commanders to conduct decisive land operations along with air, sea, and space-based operations. In combat, The Army ensures the full application and sustainment of integrated combined arms power.
The National Command Authorities exercise authority and control over the armed forces through a single chain of command with two distinct branches. The first runs from the President to the Secretary of Defense to the combatant commanders. The second branch, used for purposes other than operational direction of forces assigned to combatant commands, runs from the President through the Secretary of Defense to the service secretaries. The service secretaries exercise authority, direction, and control of their forces not assigned to combatant commanders through the individual chiefs of the services. The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff is not formally in either chain but is in the channel of communication. Orders are issued by the President or Secretary of Defense and are normally conveyed by the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff by authority and direction of the Secretary of Defense.
A formal chain of command exists within each combatant command according to the needs of the command and the desires of the combatant commander. The Secretary of Defense specifies the degree of control that combatant commanders exercise over assigned forces. That degree ranges from combatant command (command authority) to tactical control as defined in Joint Publication 0-2, Unified Action Armed Forces. The combatant commander may elect to establish a subordinate unified command, a joint task force, functional component commands, service component commands, or a single service force-depending on the type of operation. The joint force commander designates the joint force land component commander, who may come from either The Army or the Marine Corps.
In a joint force, a single commander exercises combatant command (command authority) or operational control over elements of two or more services. Within a joint force, service forces may work under subordinate joint commands or single service commands. Each military department (Army, Navy, and Air Force) retains responsibility for administration and logistic support of those forces it has allocated.
The Army contributes forces to combatant commands to conduct prompt and sustained combat operations on land. The objective of Army forces is land force dominance-defeating adversary land forces, seizing and controlling terrain, and destroying the adversary will to resist. The Army, supported by the Air Force and Navy, has a forcible entry capability that allows it to conduct land operations anywhere in the world. The Army also can achieve prompt and sustained land dominance across the spectrum of conflict. It concludes conflict decisively to achieve national political and military objectives.
The Army tailors forces with unique capabilities to achieve military objectives during major theater wars or smaller-scale contingencies. Army forces are assigned to a joint force commander under the direct command of an Army component commander or a joint force land component commander.
The Navy gains and maintains control of vital sea areas and lines of communication and, employing Marine Corps forces, conducts sea-based littoral power projection. Naval forces provide The Army with strategic, operational, and tactical sealift, and support ground combat operations.
The Air Force gains and maintains control of the air. It projects aerial combat power to provide close air support and air interdiction for ground force commanders. The Air Force also provides strategic, operational, and tactical airlift support and other functions described in Department of Defense Directive 5100.1 to support ground operations.
Commanders of major army headquarters may serve as the joint force land component commander or joint task force commander. Each combatant command also designates an Army service component commander responsible for providing Title 10 support to Army forces assigned to that command. In some cases, the numbered army commander may also be the Army service component commander.
Committing Army forces means committing the assets needed to deploy and sustain them. Today, many of those assets reside in the reserve components. The decision to commit The Army is a decision to commit the Nation. That commitment means that national interests are threatened and the Nation is determined to secure them.
Alliances result from formal agreements between two or more nations for broad, long-term objectives that further the common interests of the members. Coalitions are temporary arrangements between two or more nations for common action in the context of specific strategic situations.
The Army's unique, sustained land power capabilities offer the National Command Authorities and combatant commanders more options for engagement, crisis response, and warfighting. The Army ordinarily provides the majority of land forces to combatant commands. Army forces provide capabilities for the combatant commander's theater engagement plans, which allow combatant commanders to shape the international environment, deter aggression and coercion, reduce potential conflicts and threats, and promote regional stability. When a crisis occurs, Army elements respond rapidly to enable the combatant commander to terminate a crisis or preclude opposition. Rapidly deployable land forces allow the combatant commander to control the land, its resources, and its population. If war occurs, Army forces conduct sustained combat operations. After the enemy's defeat, Army forces allow the combatant commander to achieve a lasting decision through continued presence.
America is a strong Nation. It has abundant resources and a dynamic and productive population. It wields enormous political power and has the world's strongest economy. But without a strong military to protect its enduring interests, America's strength would soon wither. Since the end of the Cold War, the world has been in a state of significant transition. This transition is marked by increased uncertainty and potential vulnerability. The strategic environment is less stable than in the past, and threats to American interests are less predictable. National power remains relative and dynamic, and as such, the military must provide the National Command Authorities with flexible forces that can operate across the range of military operations and spectrum of conflict to achieve national security objectives. The Army operates as part of the joint force, and The Army constitutes the preponderance of the land component of that force. Acting as part of joint and multinational teams, The Army provides sustained land power capabilities to combatant commanders for engagement, crisis response, and warfighting in support of our national interests.
