The Collins Center Update. Volume 6, Issue 2, January-March 2004. Joint Force Land Component Commander Course

Abstract

During the week of 21-28 February 2004, the U.S. Army War College held the initial Joint Force Land Component Commander Course (JFLCC). This "pilot" course was a success, and adjustments will be made to make it even better in the future. The mission of the one-week course is to assist in preparing general officers to function effectively as a Land Component Commander in the joint environment. Following completion of the JFLCC course, graduates are expected to have improved ability to: (1) formulate, prepare for, and execute land operations that support the Combatant Commander in the accomplishment of national policy objectives (2) form a Land Component Command and supervise its functions, (3) coordinate the conduct of operations in conjunctions with other functional commands and (4) lead and manage sustained land-dominance operations in an environment involving the interagency, international and nongovernment organizations, as well as the international media. Other topics discussed in this issue are missile defense activation rehearsal and testing, Center for Strategic Leadership elective courses, and international perspectives on homeland security.
