Marine Corps Techniques Publication MCTP 3-20A (Formerly MCWP 3-21.2) Aviation Logistics 2 May 2016 establishes doctrine for planning and executing Marine aviation logistics (AVLOG). It provides the philosophy for employing Marine AVLOG in support of Marine Corps operations. Effective AVLOG is the force multiplier of the Marine air-ground task force's (MAGTF's) aviation combat element (ACE). Viable AVLOG support enables the ACE commander to maintain more capable forces in decisive operations longer. Marine AVLOG is an integral part of the MAGTF as it extends the ACE's operational reach and flexibility.

Marine Corps Warfighting Publication MCWP 3-20 (Formerly MCWP 3-2) Aviation Operations 2 May 2016 Aviation is an integral part of the naval expeditionary air-ground team-it extends the MAGTF's operational reach and flexibility and expands its warfighting power. Marine Corps Warfighting Publication (MCWP) 3-2, Aviation Operations, applies the warfighting philosophy in Marine Corps Doctrinal Publication (MCDP) 1, Warfighting, to Marine aviation operations. It is the link between higher order doctrine and the tactics, techniques, and procedures contained in other Marine aviation doctrinal publications. This publication establishes the doctrinal basis for the planning and execution of aviation operations and provides the philosophy for employment of Marine aviation in the prosecution of war and other operations in support of the Marine Corps' mission as the nation's expeditionary force in readiness. This publication is intended primarily for commanders and staff officers who are responsible for the planning and execution of aviation operations. Nonetheless, it should be read by all Marines who are supported by or involved in the execution of aviation operations. It is also intended for other doctrine centers, joint and multinational staffs, professional military educational activities, and any other activity that requires an understanding of Marine aviation. It explains U.S. Marine Corps aviation capabilities and how the Marine air-ground task force (MAGTF) exploits these capabilities, both operationally and tactically. It does not discuss the specifics of unit-level tactics and procedures; e.g., air-to-air combat tactics, how to conduct a helicopterborne operation, or how to attack any particular target. Rather, this publication applies maneuver warfare concepts to Marine aviation operations, especially in aviation's role as an integrated combat arm of the MAGTF. As with all Marine Corps doctrinal publications, this publication is authoritative in nature but requires judgment in application. It supersedes Fleet Marine Force Manual (FMFM) 5-1, Organization and Function of Marine Aviation.

Doctrine provides a military organization with a common philosophy, a language, a purpose, and unity of effort. Rather than establishing a set of hard and fast rules, the objective of doctrine is to foster initiative and creative thinking. To this end, FM 3-06 discusses major Army operations in an urban environment. This environment, consisting of complex terrain, a concentrated population, and an infrastructure of systems, is an operational environment in which Army forces will operate. In the future, it may be the predominant operational environment. Each urban operation is unique and will differ because of the multitude of combinations presented by the threat, the urban area itself, the major operation of which it may be part (or the focus), and the fluidity of societal and geopolitical considerations. Therefore, there will always exist an innate tension between Army doctrine, the actual context of the urban operation, and future realities. Commanders must strike the proper balance between maintaining the capability to respond to current threats and preparing for future challenges.

Marine Corps Techniques Publication MCTP 3-10F (Formerly MCWP 3-16) Fire Support Coordination in the Ground Combat Element 2 May 2016, is a framework for coordinating and employing supporting arms in consonance with maneuver elements. While this publication covers many aspects of fire support, it focuses on fire support coordination in the infantry division, regiment, and battalion. The doctrine applies across the full range of military operations-from humanitarian assistance to a major theater war. Fire support doctrine is based on a common understanding of the nature of war and on our warfighting philosophy as described in Marine Corps Doctrinal Publication (MCDP) 1, Warfighting. This doctrine provides for fast, flexible, and decisive action in a complex environment characterized by friction, uncertainty, fluidity, and rapid change. This publication is a field reference guide for commanders, their staffs, and fire support coordination personnel. It forms the basis for specific fire support coordination tactics, techniques, and procedures. This publication supersedes Fleet Marine Force Manual (FMFM) 6-18, Techniques and Procedures for Fire Support Coordination, dated 27 March 1992.

Marine Corps Techniques Publication MCTP 3-30B (Formerly MCWP 3-40.2) Information Management 2 May 2016, builds on the doctrinal foundation established in Marine Corps Doctrinal Publication (MCDP) 6, Command and Control. Since the original publication of MCDP 6, technology improvements have led to more effective command and control capabilities; yet, overly complex information processes have left warfighters with new challenges. Further, while Joint doctrine provides broad overarching guidance for information management (IM), it gives few practical solutions for the technological challenges that warfighters face. This publication provides an overview and definition of the concept of information management, presents examples and guidance for IM strategies, suggests best practices, details IM responsibilities, and presents organizational constructs for IM planning and execution. Its focus is at the tactical and operational levels and it refers to relevant theater strategic issues as necessary. This publication is organized around the pillars of command and control-information, people, and the command and control support structure-because information management is a key command and control enabler. As stated in MCDP 6, "there is no substitute for effective command and control" and the leadership responsibilities that come with staff organization and collaboration. This publication serves as the authoritative reference for IM concepts and introduces knowledge management, highlighting its relationship to command and control. The intended audience is commanders, staffs, IM officers, communication officers, and information technology users.

Marine Corps Techniques Publication MCTP 3-20C Formerly MCWP 3-22, Antiair Warfare 2 May 2016 Antiair warfare within the U. S. Marine Corps was forged in combat primarily during World War II when Marine aircraft and antiaircraft artillery were stationed throughout the Pacific basin. Campaigns for Guadalcanal and the Marshall Islands and other operations shaped today's concepts. Marine defense battalions employed ground-based air defense assets. Congressional Medal of Honor recipients Lieutenant Colonel Gregory "Pappy" Boyington, Captain Joe Foss, and other Marine aviators flew fighter sweep, combat air patrol, escort, and assorted offensive antiair warfare missions. They were among the first aviators to perform multirole antiair warfare tasks designed to protect friendly forces and gain air superiority. Today's Marine air-ground task force (MAGTF) has a unique antiair warfare capability. Multimission-capable aircraft, a ground-based short air defense missile system, and a robust Marine air command and control system (MACCS) are tremendous force multipliers for MAGTF and joint force commanders. Marine Corps Techniques Publication MCTP 3-20C, Antiair Warfare., focuses on the tactics, techniques, and procedures of antiair warfare operations. It details how the MAGTF accomplishes antiair warfare tasks at the operational and tactical levels of war and how antiair warfare capabilities tie into the joint force architecture and operations. From this publication Marines of all ranks and military occupational specialties will understand how antiair warfare operations are conducted and how they impact on MAGTF operations. Further, they will comprehend their role in antiair warfare operations and grasp the nature and contributions of antiair warfare to combined arms operations.

The three most important things the Marine Corps does for the Nation are make Marines, win battles, and return quality citizens. Public affairs (PA) is an integral part of warfighting and solidifies the existing, indispensable bond between the Marine Corps and the American public. Professional, sophisticated PA is just as important as tactics and weapons training. As a powerful, nonlethal capability with application across the range of military operations, PA builds understanding, credibility, trust, and relationships with domestic and foreign publics-publics that are critical to the Marine Corps' mission success and the Nation's larger strategic objectives. Marine Corps Techniques Publication MCTP 3-30F (Formerly MCWP 3-33.3) Marine Corps Public Affairs 2 May 2016, describes Marine Corps doctrine on PA. It provides the requisite information needed by commanders and their staffs to understand PA. Although this publication is particularly relevant for Marine air-ground task force commanders and their staffs, it is important for every Marine to understand the information contained herein. This publication addresses the information environment, the news media, policies and principles governing PA, and command responsibility for PA.

The User's Guide to Marine Corps Values is to be used as a tool to help ensure that the values of the Corps continue to be reinforced and sustained in all Marines after being formally instilled in entry level training. This document is a compendium of discussion guides developed and used by Marine Corps formal schools. The guides are part of the formal inculcation of values in young Marines, enlisted and officer, during the entry level training process. This guide is designed to be used as a departure point for discussing the topics as a continuation of the process of sustaining values within the Marine Corps. The User's Guide also serves as a resource for leaders to understand the "talk" and the "walk" expected of them as leaders. New graduates of the Recruit Depots and The Basic School have been exposed to these lessons and expect to arrive at their first duty assignments and MOS schools to find these principles and standards exhibited in the Marines they encounter. Leaders must remember that as long as there is but one Marine junior to them, they are honor bound to uphold the customs and traditions of the Corps and to always "walk the walk and talk the talk." We are the "parents" and "older siblings" of the future leaders of the Marine Corps. America is depending on us to ensure the Marines of tomorrow are ready and worthy of the challenges of this obligation. Teaching, reinforcement, and sustainment of these lessons can take place in the field, garrison, or formal school setting. Instructional methodology and media may vary depending on the environment and location of the instruction. However, environment should not be considered an obstacle to the conduct or quality of theinstruction. This guide has been developed as a generic, universal training tool that is applicable to all Marines regardless of grade. Discussion leaders should include personal experiences that contribute to the development of the particular value or leadership lesson being di
