USMC Concepts & Programs 2013
provides specific intelligence training and then links
the student with TMIC to solidify the intelligence and
operations integration.
Battle Staff Training Program
The Battle Staff Training Program (BSTP) is the
method by which MCTOG assists commanders and
OTIs in training units in advanced, collective Battle
Staff command and control and planning skills. The
BSTP prepares units to integrate Service, joint, and
interagency assets in support of their anticipated missions
during deployment. In addition, the BSTP uses
tailored unit training packages, exercise support, and
unit defined Mobile Training Team support packages
to train unit battle staffs either at the MCTOG Battle
Lab, or in support of Home Station Training. Furthermore,
MCTOG is focused on the regiment, battalion,
or company commander and staff in the information
management, problem solving and resolution processes
encountered in the current and future operating
environments.
Synchronization of GCE
Doctrine and Training and Readiness
The MCTOG is the critical link between the GCE
Advocate (the Deputy Commandant for Plans, Policies,
and Operations) and the means by which the doctrine,
tactics, techniques, procedures, training standards, curricula,
and institutional training programs are established
and kept current. As such, MCTOG will assist the
GCE Advocate in developing standardized GCE individual
and collective capabilities that are linked to best
practices, current TTPs, and emerging requirements.
MARINE CORPS LOGISTICS
OPERATIONS GROUP (MCLOG)
Deputy Commandant, Installations and Logistics
and Commanding General, Training and Education
Command, partnered to establish the Marine Corps
Logistics Operations Group (MCLOG). The MCLOG
provides a capability similar to the Marine Corps Tactics
and Operations Group (MCTOG) and Marine
Aviation War fare Training Squadron (MAWTS)-1 for
logistics units in the operating forces. MCLOG will report
to the Commanding General, Marine Air Ground
Task Force Training Command (MAGTF TC), and will
be located at Twentynine Palms.
MCLOG will serve as the following:
• The single logistics operations training element responsible
to synchronize the logistics training and
education continuum on behalf of the Logistics
Advocate
• The lead for providing advanced and standardized
tactical logistics operations training and education
on behalf of the Logistics Advocate
• The logistics doctrine proponent on behalf of the
Logistics Advocate.
MCLOG will implement the Logistics Tactics
Training Program (LTTP) to enhance combat readiness
and performance of logistics personnel and Logistics
Combat Element (LCE) units in MAGTF operations.
The cornerstone of the LTTP will be the graduatelevel
logistics operations courses, and the assignment
of graduates to logistics operations officer billets in all
elements of the MAGTF.
MCLOG also will work with MCTOG and
MAWTS-1 to integrate Ground Combat Element; Aviation
Combat Element; and LCE training and tactics,
techniques, and procedures within the Tactical Logistics
Operation Center (TLOC) through an Advanced
Unit Collective training program that will assist LCE
unit staffs in C2 and planning skills with a focus on logistics
operations. This program will use tailored unit
training packages, exercise support, and unit defined
Mobile Training Team support packages to train logistics
unit battle staffs either at the MCLOG facility, or in
support of home station training.
