Joint Task Force - Global Network Operations; The Supported Command

Abstract

The recent information and technology revolutions along with a few of their by-products such as the Global Information Grid and the Net-Centric Warfare Concept have brought about great changes for our nations government and military. Along with these changes are additional challenges in processes and development of command and control structures. In this paper, the present Supported and Supporting relationship between the Joint Task Force-Global Network Operations and the other Combatant Commanders is analyzed from four different perspectives. Finally, the paper draws conclusions based on the analysis and makes recommendations to adjust the command and control architecture to better protect the Global Information Grid from the ever present electronic enemy.
