    Section II

    Terms

    Battle Command

    The art of decision making, leading, and motivating soldiers and their organizations into action missions; includes visualizing current state and future state, then formulating concepts of operations to get from one to another at least cost; also, includes assigning missions, prioritizing and allocating resources, selecting the critical time and place to act, and knowing how and when to make adjustments during the fight.

    Battle Dynamics

    Five major interrelated dynamics that define significant areas of change from current operations to Force XXI Operations; dynamics are Battle Command, Battle Space, Depth and Simultaneous Attack, Early Entry, Lethality and Survivability, and Combat Service Support.

    Battle Space

    Components of this space are determined by the maximum capabilities of friendly and enemy forces to acquire and dominate each other by fires and maneuver and in the electromagnetic spectrum.

    Combat Service Support

    The essential logistics functions, activities, and tasks, necessary to sustain all elements of an operating force in an area of operations.

    Command and Control Warfare

    The integrated use of operations security, military deception, psychological operations, electronic warfare, and physical destruction manually supported by intelligence to deny information to, to influence, or to degrade adversary command and control capabilities while protecting friendly command and control capabilities against such actions; command and control warfare applies across the full range of military operations and all levels of war.

    Depth and Simultaneous Attack

    The simultaneous application of combat power against an enemy throughout the depth and breadth of the battlefield; objective goes beyond defeating the enemy; objective is to accelerate enemy defeat.

    Early Entry Operations

    Operations involving the initial deploying forces, they occur whenever the missions require the projection of U.S. forces from the continental United States or else where.

    Operations Other than War

    Military activities during peacetime and conflict that do not necessarily involve armed clashes between two organized forces.
