Executive Summary<br />

JTF Intelligence Directorate’s (J-2’s) primary function is to<br />

support the CJTF <strong>and</strong> staff by ensuring the availability of<br />

reliable intelligence <strong>and</strong> timely indications <strong>and</strong> warnings on<br />

the characteristics <strong>and</strong> the enemy situation in the joint<br />

operations area (JOA). The JTF J-2 additionally provides<br />

support to the CJTF’s force protection mission.<br />

J-2 establishes the joint intelligence support element (JISE),<br />

which is responsible for providing the CJTF, JTF staff,<br />

<strong>and</strong> JTF components <strong>and</strong> subordinate task forces with the<br />

complete air, space, ground, <strong>and</strong> maritime adversary<br />

situation by integrating <strong>and</strong> adding to the adversary<br />

situations developed by the combatant comm<strong>and</strong>er’s<br />

intelligence organization.<br />

JTF J-3 assists the CJTF in the discharge of assigned<br />

responsibility for the direction <strong>and</strong> control of operations,<br />

beginning with planning <strong>and</strong> follow-through until specific<br />

operations are completed.<br />

J-3 is responsible for the operation of the <strong>Joint</strong> Operations<br />

Center for the CJTF which serves as a focal point for all<br />

operational matters <strong>and</strong>, in the absence of a JISE,<br />

intelligence matters.<br />

JTF Logistics Directorate (J-4) is charged with the<br />

formulation of logistics plans <strong>and</strong> with the coordination <strong>and</strong><br />

supervision of supply, maintenance, repair, evacuation,<br />

transportation, engineering, salvage, procurement, mortuary<br />

affairs, security assistance, host-nation support, <strong>and</strong> related<br />

logistics activities.<br />

It is critical that the JTF J-4 determine what, if any,<br />

logistics directive authority for a common support<br />

capability the supported combatant comm<strong>and</strong>er has<br />

delegated to the CJTF <strong>and</strong> if the scope of the authority<br />

meets the JTF requirements.<br />

JTF J-4 may establish a logistics readiness center to<br />

coordinate logistic support, maintain total assets capability,<br />

monitor logistics capability, <strong>and</strong> provide a central point for<br />

logistics-related boards, offices, <strong>and</strong> centers.<br />

JTF Plans Directorate assists the CJTF in long-range or<br />

future planning, preparation of campaign <strong>and</strong> joint operation<br />

plans, <strong>and</strong> associated estimates of the situation.<br />
