I’m listening to Joe Purser give a brief overview of the Joint Operating Environment (JOE) and the Capstone Concept for Joint Operations (CCJO). Purser said the JOE provides context for the future joint force – “the demand signals.”
Purser said the JOE is the problem statement, our understanding of the military in the future.
“It establishes this conceptual framework that we can we go forward … to that place of development and experimentation,” Purser said.
Purser said the 2009 version [JOE] will reflect the new dynamics in the world today, the economic downturn and the global economic situation. The 2009 JOE will be available for download on an open source website within the next 30 to 35 days.
As Purser turned the focus to the CCJO, he said the [CCJO] is the solution for the challenges the JOE …. for the joint force.
He said the CCJO talks in terms of 5 broad national security challenges.
1. win the nation’s wars
2. deter aggression
3. develop cooperative security
4. defend the homeland
5. respond to civil crisis
Gotta run. For more on the implications of the CCJO see you in the next blog!
