The “Multinational Capability Development Campaign” is a follow-on to the Multinational Experiment (MNE) series initiated by United States Joint Forces Command in 2001. It is designed to develop and introduce new capabilities to enhance the coalition force’s operational effectiveness in joint, interagency, multinational, and coalition operations. While it maintains the foundational blocks that made the MNE series successful, MCDC incorporates significant changes in scope, mission, and governance that improve responsiveness, agility, and relevance. <\/p>\n

Their handbook :”Military Strategic Communications in Coalition Operations<\/a>” gives insight into strategic communications at the Joint Taskforce level.    While the material is a bit bureaucratic for the small team, the information in it is useful for understanding communications organizations at the high level.<\/p>\n

From the handbook:<\/p>\n

This handbook is intended for use by commanders and their staff at the operational Joint Task Force
\n(JTF) level, but could be used at any level as a reference. The purpose of the publication is to describe
\nthe fundamental operational aspects of Strategic Communication (StratCom) in the military, and
\npropose guidance for the implementation of StratCom in support of a deployed JTF.
\nThe primary audience of this handbook comprises the JTF Command Group and HQ Special Staff; the
\nmembers of the StratCom staff element(s); the Intelligence staff; the Operations staff; the Plans staff;
\nthe Information Operations (Info Ops) staff and Public Affairs Officers (PAOs) at all levels.

\nanalysts at the military-strategic level; the operational-level Civil-Military Cooperation (CIMIC) staff;
\nstaff members involved in liaison and Joint Military Commission (JMC) activities; and related staff and
\ncommanders at the Component Command (CC) level.

\noverview of the subject for anyone not (yet) familiar with or not directly involved in the execution of
\nStratCom tasks.2
