Engineer capabilities are a significant force multiplier in joint
operations, facilitating the freedom of action necessary for the
joint force commander (JFC) to meet mission objectives. Engineer
operations modify, maintain, provide understanding of, and protect
the physical environment. Joint doctrine for engineer operations is
built upon, and consistent with, the principles of joint operations
described in Joint Publication (JP) 1, Doctrine for the Armed
Forces of the United States, and JP 3-0, Joint Operations. Engineer
operations enhance the ability of the JFC to successfully apply
these principles to joint operations.Major operations and campaigns
frequently require ground combat (or the possibility of ground
combat), as do crisis response and contingency operations. Such
operations will require engineers who can integrate their
activities with the fires and maneuver of ground combat forces to
assure the mobility of friendly forces, alter the mobility of
adversaries, and enhance the protection of friendly forces. Some
activities require engineer capabilities as an inherent part of a
mission to provide support outside the joint force. Engineer
support is inherent in the tasks of stability operations to restore
or provide essential services, such as water, power, and
transportation, and to repair critical infrastructure. This
publication provides doctrine for the planning, command and
control, execution, and assessment of joint engineer operations.
This publication has been prepared under the direction of the
Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. It sets forth joint doctrine
to govern the activities and performance of the Armed Forces of the
United States in operations and provides the doctrinal basis for
interagency coordination and for US military involvement in
multinational operations. It provides military guidance for the
exercise of authority by combatant commanders and other joint force
commanders (JFCs) and prescribes joint doctrine for operations and
training. It provides military guidance for use by the Armed Forces
in preparing their appropriate plans. It is not the intent of this
publication to restrict the authority of the JFC from organizing
the force and executing the mission in a manner the JFC deems most
appropriate to ensure unity of effort in the accomplishment of the
overall objective.
