Command and Control for Joint Land Operations

Abstract

This publication provides guidance for the planning and conduct of land operations by joint forces under the command and control of a joint force land component commander (JFLCC) in an area of operation. It presents options and considerations for use by a joint force commander (JFC) in designating a JFLCC and forming a functional land component, to include advantages and disadvantages of each option. It also addresses the timing and decision of the JFC to form the component and designate the JFLCC, assignment of subordinate commands, and the authority and responsibilities of the commander. It addresses formation, functions, and organization of the component, and provides joint doctrine and selected tactics, techniques, and procedures for operations in support of major operations or campaigns by a JFC across the range of military operations. It includes topics that should be considered when developing a joint land operation plan or order. These operations are primarily those involving large forces to include Army corps and Marine expeditionary forces, and those operations outside of an amphibious objective area, if designated.
