What our Doctrine Says:
Responsibility for Security
“Establish transitional public security to promote, restore, and maintain
public order. Transitional public security by US and
multinational/international organization forces in major operations and
campaigns involving a large US military presence complements public
security. The purpose of transitional public security is to protect civilian
populations when the rule of law has broken down or is non-existent.”
JP 3-07 Stability August 2016
“Land operations affect civilians by disrupting routine life
patterns and potentially placing civilians in harm’s way. Army
forces must plan to conduct minimum-essential stability tasks
(providing security, food, water, shelter, and medical
treatment) as an integral part of land combat.”
ADP 3.0 Operations November 2016
“Establishing civil security involves providing for the safety of
the host nation and its population, including protection from
internal and external threats. Establishing civil security
provides needed space for host-nation and civil agencies and
organizations to work toward sustained peace.”
