<strong>Command</strong> <strong>Red</strong> <strong>Team</strong> Organization<br />

(3) Staff Support. <strong>Red</strong> teams should know how to integrate red team processes<br />

with regular planning, operations, intelligence support, assessment, and other staff<br />

functions, including the joint operation planning process (JOPP) and joint intelligence<br />

preparation of the operational environment (JIPOE) processes.<br />

(4) Alternative Analysis. <strong>Red</strong> team members should be familiar with<br />

techniques to stimulate the production and exploitation of new, original, independent, and<br />

unconventional perspectives, concepts, assessments, and COAs. In addition, members of<br />

the command red team should be familiar with existing assessments and prevailing<br />

wisdom, and the rationale behind them, so that they can develop alternative perspectives.<br />

(5) Situational Dynamics. <strong>Red</strong> teams should know how to explore potential<br />

second and third order effects, unintended and collateral effects, high impact/low<br />

probability events, unseen threats and opportunities, chaos, and the interplay of multivariable<br />

dynamics. In addition, members of the command red team should understand<br />

the specific factors and dynamics that apply to their particular area of responsibility<br />

(AOR) and problem sets.<br />

(6) Sociocultural Analysis. <strong>Red</strong> teams should have a solid understanding of<br />

the adversary and other relevant actor mindsets, cultural traits, world views, historical<br />

narratives and grievances, and operational perspectives applicable to their assigned AOR<br />

and area of interest, as well as area-specific sociocultural, human factors, and<br />

anthropological expertise. <strong>Red</strong> teams should be able to interpret information and assess<br />

situations from the perspective of adversaries, partners, and other relevant actors.<br />

<strong>Command</strong> red teams should be proficient in methods to forecast the probable behavioral<br />

responses of specific actors based on their known or inferred perspectives, mindsets,<br />

interests, doctrines, and decision-making processes.<br />

(7) Adversary Emulation. <strong>Red</strong> teams should be able to interpret information<br />

and assess situations from the perspective of adversaries, partners, and other relevant<br />

actors. <strong>Red</strong> teams should be proficient in methods to forecast the probable behavioral<br />

responses of specific actors based on their known or inferred perspectives, mindsets,<br />

interests, doctrines, and decision-making processes. Adversary emulation is not roleplaying<br />

all aspects of the enemy (a role reserved for the red cell) such as capabilities,<br />

force structure, doctrine, and rules of engagement.<br />
