<p>A contingency operation is an emergency in which military forces are used to address the  outcome of natural disasters, terrorist attacks, subversions, or military operations.  DoD involvement in deployed/contingency operations has increased and changed  substantially in recent years: support of humanitarian and civic assistance missions and  disaster relief has grown, as has the range of missions in which DoD engages. Ongoing  support of the conflict in Afghanistan has also required a greater commitment from  military personnel and greater diligence on the part of those tasked with the responsibility  of financial management prior to, during, and following the missions.  As a result of these changes, the need exists for establishing a nonrestrictive  Deployed/Contingency Operations Financial Management Guidebook for Marine Corps  continuity and consistency purposes. This will provide deployed/contingency Financial  Management personnel with references for financial management during a contingency  operation. This Guidebook provides nonmandatory guidance on best practices, lessons  learned, and expectations.
