Civil Military Operations: Afghanistan. Observations on Civil Military Operations During the First Year of Operation Enduring Freedom
Abstract
The U.S. Army Peacekeeping Institute (PKI), located at the U.S. Army War College, has previously conducted studies of Civil Military Operations (CMO) in U.S. military engagements abroad. Based on comments from various levels of command engaged in Operation Enduring Freedom in Afghanistan, PKI felt that the one-year mark was the proper time to do an assessment of CMO there. Most participants would be completing tours and have the time and perspective to reflect on their experiences. In late FY 03, PKI was reorganized into the U.S. Army Peace Keeping and Stability Operations Institute (PKSOI). This report is therefore published under the auspices of PKSOI. The report covers the period from 11 September 2001 until the end of December 2002. Afghanistan remains a dynamic situation; therefore, the details associated with the findings are temporally bound. This report attempts to identify the trends and concerns that still exist, although their dimensions and magnitude may change.
