where do you find forward deployed MEUs
forward deployed MEUs embark aboard ARGS operating for Geographic combatant commander and president
how do MEUS serve
MEUs serve as a forward-deployed, flexible sea-based MAGTF, capable of conducting amphibious operations to respond to crisis, conduct limited contingency operations, introduce follow-on forces, and support designated special operations forces. MEUs are characterized by their sea-based forward presence, expeditionary nature, ability to plan for and respond to crises, combined arms integration, and their interoperability with joint, combined and special operations forces.
what does a MEF consist of
MEF HQ

JIPOE
analytical process used by joint intel to produce intelligence assessments, estimates, and other intel products in support of the JFC’s decision making process
- helps the JFC stay inside the adversary’s decison making cycle by
- ID COG, focusing intell collection at the right time and place, and analyzign the impac tof hte OE on military ops in order to retreat cfaster and make better decisoins thant eh enemy
4 steps of JIPOE
define OE
describe the impact of hte OE
eval the adversary
determine and describe adversary COA
how to describe the dissemination of information
“push and pull”
- pull info up the chain of command and push down
role of intel and spreading information

what must intel be synched with
synch intel with plans and ops in order to provide answers to meet requirements in time to influence the deicsions they intend to support
most common error when synching intel with plans and ops
failure to build sufficient lead time for intel products and operational decision makign
what do OPLAN and OPORD dictate
OPLAN/OPORD dictates timign and sequencing of intel operations
intelligence is imperfect
not everything can be known. analysis is vulnerable to deception. info is open to alternative interpretation w/o collaboration w/other analyses.
- predicted analysis is both difficulty and risky
BUT
successful perofmrance of predictive analysis is invaluable to the commander and staff
cogntive biases and the intel community
cognitive biases withint eh intel analysis views the world through their own lens colored by their own experince
- they are tempte to fit information into preexisting beleifs and dissuade info that doesn’t fit
