The Department of Defense (DoD) has made major strides in the development of concepts and doctrine for Information Operations (IO). In a substantive break with past traditions, the Secretary of Defense has made the U.S. Strategic Command (USSTRATCOM) and the U.S. Special Operations Command (USSOCOM) supported commands rather than supporting commands. USSTRATCOM has the national mission and is taking the lead in IO. USSOCOM has the national mission and is taking the lead in the Global War on Terror (GWOT). Across all other Combatant Commands, and within all services and agencies of DoD, the Undersecretary of Defense for Intelligence (USDI) is sponsoring transformative leap-ahead endeavors in Strategic Communication, Open Source Intelligence (OSINT), and Joint Intelligence Operations Commands or Centers (JIOC) focused on interagency and interservice information-sharing and collaboration.

Very good. Cover has slight wear and soiling. xi, [1], 75, [1] p. Illustrations. Endnotes. From an on-line posting: "In the Age of Information, the primary source of National Power is information that has been converted into actionable intelligence or usable knowledge. Information Operations is the critical ingredient in early warning, peacekeeping, stabilization & reconstruction, and homeland defense. Robert D. Steele is a retired Marine Corps officer. After a decade in the clandestine service of the Central Intelligence Agency (including three tours overseas focused on terrorist and extremist targets), he resigned from the CIA. He resigned from the Marine Corps civil service in 1993 to lead the modern Open Source Intelligence (OSINT) revolution, and is the author of the DIA, NATO, and SOF OSINT Handbooks. Mr. Steele has earned a certificate in intelligence policy from Harvard University and a diploma in defense studies from the Naval War College. The above information may not be current. It was current when the individual was published by SSI."
