c. Interagency Coordination and Integration<br />
(1) The guidelines <strong>for</strong> interagency coordination ensure that all participating<br />
departments and agencies under appropriate authority focus <strong>the</strong>ir ef<strong>for</strong>ts on national<br />
objectives. The <strong>Armed</strong> <strong>Forces</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>United</strong> <strong>States</strong> have unique capabilities to <strong>of</strong>fer <strong>the</strong><br />
interagency community. These include established military-to-military domestic and<br />
international contacts, resources (e.g., logistics) not available to nonmilitary agencies, trained<br />
civil affairs (CA) personnel and <strong>the</strong>ir assets, and responsiveness based on military training<br />
and readiness. Additional unique military capabilities include C2 resources supported by<br />
worldwide communications and intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR)<br />
infrastructures; cyberspace capabilities; robust organizational and planning processes;<br />
training support <strong>for</strong> large numbers <strong>of</strong> individuals on myriad skills; and air, land, and<br />
maritime mobility support <strong>for</strong> inter<strong>the</strong>ater or intra<strong>the</strong>ater requirements.<br />
(2) Interorganizational Coordination in Foreign Areas<br />
(a) Interorganizational coordination in <strong>for</strong>eign areas may involve <strong>the</strong> exercise<br />
<strong>of</strong> USG policy regarding internationally recognized law; preexisting bilateral and multilateral<br />
military relationships, agreements, and arrangements managed by US embassies; treaties<br />
involving US defense interests, implementation <strong>of</strong> CCMD <strong>the</strong>ater security cooperation<br />
activities; and initiatives concerning technology transfer or armaments cooperation and<br />
control, <strong>for</strong>eign humanitarian assistance, peace operations, or o<strong>the</strong>r contingencies.<br />
(b) At <strong>the</strong> national level, DOS leads <strong>the</strong> ef<strong>for</strong>t to support interagency<br />
coordination overseas, <strong>for</strong>ming task-oriented groups or employing <strong>the</strong> NSC system to<br />
organize <strong>the</strong> ef<strong>for</strong>t.<br />
(c) The <strong>for</strong>mal US interagency structure in <strong>for</strong>eign countries operates under <strong>the</strong><br />
lead <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> US chief <strong>of</strong> mission, normally an ambassador, and <strong>the</strong> country team and may<br />
include US embassy PA and cultural affairs representation. The chief <strong>of</strong> mission is<br />
ordinarily <strong>the</strong> lead <strong>for</strong> interagency coordination abroad that is essentially nonmilitary in<br />
nature but requires military participation, with representation and control <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> military<br />
operations provided by <strong>the</strong> JFC.<br />
(d) Within an AOR, <strong>the</strong> GCC is responsible <strong>for</strong> planning and implementing<br />
military strategies and operations and interorganizational coordination. Coordination<br />
required outside <strong>the</strong> geographic region may be supported by groups within <strong>the</strong> NSC system<br />
or individual USG departments and agencies, with lead <strong>for</strong> such coordination falling to <strong>the</strong><br />
CCMD or <strong>the</strong> USG department or agency, depending on <strong>the</strong> circumstances. In some<br />
operations, a special representative <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> President or special envoy <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> UN Secretary-<br />
General may be involved.<br />
(3) Domestic Interagency Coordination<br />
(a) For HS-related interagency coordination that may require military<br />
participation in countering domestic terrorism and o<strong>the</strong>r support tasks, DHS has <strong>the</strong> lead.<br />
For HD interagency coordination, DOD will have <strong>the</strong> lead. DHS is <strong>the</strong> primary <strong>for</strong>um <strong>for</strong><br />
