Guerilla Hunter Killer Smartbook (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781782660583)

Recently President Barrack Obama authorized 30,000 additional troops be sent to Afghanistan over the course of twelve months to support General McCrystal's comprehensive Counterinsurgency (COIN) strategy for Afghanistan. This new approach to the war in Afghanistan is meant to focus on providing greater security for the people of Afghanistan, discrediting the Taliban and helping to train Afghanistan's security forces. This is a sound strategy and the additional forces will certainly help improve the situation in Afghanistan. However, additional attention must be given to the biggest shortcoming in either Afghanistan or Iraq; Once again allowing Military Intelligence to drive Maneuver. In order for intelligence to drive maneuver we must - 1) understand and define the enemy we face and how he fights and 2) capture the various data streams of information across all intelligence disciplines, and turn this raw data into comprehensive, fused intelligence assessments using a common set of tools. This "Smartbook" is a compilation of the Tactics, Techniques and Procedures that the 572nd Military Intelligence Company used during OEF 09-11 to provide timely and accurate intelligence products and assessments to the brigade and subordinate battalions of 5th Brigade, 2nd Infantry Division (Stryker Brigade Combat Team).
