Slide 1:
Cover Introduction slide
I. INTRODUCTION:

A. Lesson Tie-in: This block of instruction is the basis for all instruction that you will receive during the rest of MIOBC. It is designed to provided you with a working knowledge of MI tactical (Corps and below) organizations, their equipment, and their operational concepts. This instruction provides the foundations for the upcoming All Source III ACE PE, and for BASIX at the end of the MIOBC course.

Slide 2:
Class Objectives
B. Objectives: Given FM 34-1 and FM 34-10, SIS TBABBI (A), and tactical situations, scenarios, identify the MI organizational element and structure to include its operations, equipment, and tasking reporting channels IAW with graduation criteria.

C. Safety Considerations: There are no safety considerations for this block of instruction,
RAC IV E-LOW.
(Point out the fire exits at this time)

D. Purpose: This information will aid you in performing in various positions within these MI tactical units. For example, given a certain combat situation, it will be your responsibility to know which elements are under your control, what they can do for you, and how you deploy them in order to accomplish the mission. Many leadership positions are filled by Lieutenants in the field, so keep in mind that you could find yourself responsible for the operations and equipment of these tactical organizations.

 
E. Procedure: During this class I will discuss the organizations, operations, and equipment of all MI units at echelons corps and below. We will discuss some basic concepts. We will focus on the transition of interim organization and the new organization of the heavy division MI battalion and its composition, and discuss how it differs from the other divisions. Afterwards, we will discuss the tasking and reporting cycles for the units and their associated equipment to make intelligence and electronic warfare combat multipliers. We shall cover an in class PE to assist you in better understanding deployment and the tasking and reporting channels. During the class, I will conduct a series of reviews to insure that you (students) understand the material I present. If there are any questions please raise your hand and I will call on you. This block of instruction is unclassified. Follow along with me in your handouts.

II. DEVELOPMENT

Slide 3:
The MI Organization Higher archei line and block chart.
Tactical MI Organizations: Now that we've covered the various types of equipment found in Military Intelligence units Corps and below, let's take a close look at the organizations themselves. As we look at the various units, follow along using your organizational charts, SIS TBABBI(A) and your equipment handout, SIS TBABBI(B).

A. The Corps Headquarters is the largest tactical headquarters in the army. It may control up to 5 divisions of various types; Heavy, Light, Airborne, or Air Assault. It will also control an Armored Cavalry Regiment and may control a Separate Brigade (if formed). Each one of these units has organic MI assets. We will focus our discussion on the units within the Heavy Division.

Slide 4:
An Infantry Division main elements chart.
B. This Slide shows a generic division organization with its its major commands depicted. Here you can see the three maneuver brigades, the division artillery, the division support command, the combat aviation brigade, the MI battalion, and all of the other major separate command with in the division.

1. Under the Combat Aviation Brigade (CAB) you will notice the Quickfix Flight Platoon. The Quickfix Flight Platoon is organic to the CAB, and is usually found in the Division's Aviation General Support Company.

2. The Quickfix standard tactical mission is General Support (GS) to the division. The dotted line between the Quickfix Flight platoon and the MI battalion represents the command relation between them.

3. The Quickfix is under Operational control or Opcon to the MI Battalion.

Slide 5:
Heavy Division Symbol for an Armored Division and an Mechanized Infantry Division.
C. Now I will cover the Heavy Division MI Battalion. I will First show you the Interim organization of the battalion, then the new organization for Concept FORCE XXI.

1. Before I continue, you need to know a little back ground on why we have the interim and new organization concepts here for you. In the early 90's, following the fall of the Eastern block, the Gulf war, the military drawdown, and the development of new technologies the US army relook how its MI units should be structure to support its new needs and missions, thus became FORCE XXI.

2. As in all new concepts, it takes time to implement. The interim organization is how the units are forming in preparation to receive the new equipment and getting on line for FORCE XXI. When you get to your unit, it may be in the interim layout, or some where between the interim and the final Force XXI concept.

Slide 6:
Interim MI BN Heavy Division company lay out.
D. The MI battalion provides dedicated IEW support to the division. It is organic to the division and operates under the command and direction of the division commander and his staff. It responds to missions assigned by the G2 and G3.

1. As you can see from this slide, the Heavy MI BN has five companies. An Headquarters and Headquarters and Operations Company (HHOC), three Direct Support Companies (DS CO), and a General Support Company (GS CO). The Quickfix with the dotted line represents the Quickfix being opcon to the MI BN. the MI BN will have control all MI assets in the division in some form, whether their organic divisional assets or reinforced from another MI organization.

2. You will note that there are three DS CO. Each DS CO will support each of the division's maneuver BDEs. To help you remember this and keep track of the DS concept, at this time write under the left DS CO 1st bde, the center one 2nd bde, and the last one 3rd bde. This should alleviate any confusion over the companies and their association with the maneuver units.

3. The DS CO concept created in order to maintain an habitual relationship with the support maneuver unit. This also supports the army's doctrine of train as you fight, and train and a work as a combined arms team.

Slide 7:
Interim Heavy Division MI BN HHOC
E. Here is the Battalions Headquarters and Headquarters operations company.

F. The HHOC MAIN MISSION: The HHOC provides C2 the headquarters elements of the battalion and elements under OPCON of the battalion.

3. MI BN TOC: is located on the battle field in such a manner so as to have communications with both the Division and the MI units in BDE's Sectors.
The MI BN TOC is the C2 center for the MI BN. Under the direction of the BN CDR or the BN S3, it performs asset management of organic, attached, and reinforced intelligence and Electronic Warfare resources of the Division. It provides the MI BN CDR the centralized management necessary to ensure rapid, efficient response to mission requirements.

The MI BN TOC is Comprised of the BN S2 and S#.

4. MI BN TRAINS (or ADMINISTRATIVE AND LOGISTICS CENTER or ALOC): The MI BN Trains are the focal point for administrative and logistical support for the battalion. It consist of the BN XO, S1, S4, their staff, and the maintenance and support elements of the MI BN HHOC.

Slide 21:
DS CO

NOTE: When Interrogation Teams Work at Division, they work in an EPW Cage, at bde level it is an Screening cell.

D. The DS CO: Provide Direct support to the Maneuver BDEs in the Division. The DS CO is made up of the following:

1. Company Headquarters: The Co HQ provides C2 and administrative support for the company. the Co HQ is usually comprised of the company commander, the First Sergeant, a supply SGT and /or a supply specialist, and the company NBC NCO.

2. The Analysis Control Team (ACT): The ACT is the BDE SCI link to the Division and is its only access to SIGINT information and to have ES AND EA support from the Divisions GS CO through the ACT to the ACE. The ACT has an ASAS or ASAS type terminal that can be linked into the Division ASAS.

3. Communication Section: Provides limited communication support to the company.

4. Operations Platoon: is the main work force for the DS CO. it is made up of the following:

a. Counter Intelligence Team: provides support to the BDE against enemy hostile intelligence collection, sabotage, subversion, and terrorist threat.

b. Interrogation Team: Provides EPW exploitation from the BDE Screening cell.

C. UAV SECTION: At This time all we are sure about the UAV section is that it will have at a minimum a Ground Control Station that can receive information from any divisional UAV while in the air, and to control and conduct its own Uav missions when allotted the air frame time.

d. IMINT TEAM: will provide the BDE with secondary imagery from the division, through a MITT or MITT like system.

Slide 22:
DS CO lay out on the battle field
E. This slide shows how the DS CO will be on the battle field. The DS CO will have its Co HQ vicinity of the BDE TOC. The CI TEAM, if not actively working some operation, will be based out of the DS CO HQ or with the INTERROGators. the Interrogators will be in the Screening Cell some where within the BDE Support AREA (BSA). The Imagery Section will also be with the CO HQ, as well as a maintenance contact team, attached from the BN HHOC. The Contact team usually will have a vehicle and or generator mechanic, a C&E/IEW mechanic, just enough to trouble shoot problems, do minor repairs, coordinate with the BDE's Fwd Maintenance unit for army common equipment, and with the MI BN trains for MI SPECIFIC equipment. THE ACT will be collocated with the CO HQ, just out side of the BDE TOC, in a field SCIF (Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility) so as the BDE CDR can have ready access to the ACT. The GSR will be deployed where ever necessary to conduct surveillance mission as designated by the BDE/BN S2 in support of their R&S plans.

Slide 23
blow up of bde sector
F. A blow up of a BDE sector, with a DS CO note in the new concept the lack of SIGINT assets DS to the BDE. All SIGINT will be GS to the Div, and the BDE can request ES and EA support from the Div via the ACT.

The GSR and the REMBASS will be deployed where ever necessary to conduct surveillance mission as designated by the BDE/BN S2 in support of their R&S plans.

Slide 36.
Maneuver S2's Task:
H. This Restates that the BDE or BN S2's normally task the GSR and REMBASS by Doctrine.

Slide 37:
INTERIM GS CO
I. Here is the Interim Divisions General Support CO. This unit provides all of the Divisions SIGINT ES AND EW support. The GS CO is comprised up of the following.

1. Company Headquarters: The Co HQ provides C2 and administrative support for the company. the Co HQ is usually comprised of the company commander, the First Sergeant, a supply SGT and /or a supply specialist, and the company NBC NCO.

a. Counter Intelligence Team: provides support to the DIV against enemy hostile intelligence collection, sabotage, subversion, and terrorist threat.

b. Interrogation Team: Provides EPW exploitation from the Division Enemy Prisoner of War CAGE.

c. Document Exploitation Section: Once only a CORPS Reserve Component asset, is now found in the LT Div GS CO to screen capture documents for information that can help the CDR with current and near future operation and that can be exploited at the division level in a relative fast time before such information is invalid at this level. Once screened the document will forwarded to Corps for further detail analysis and exploitation.

d. Ground Surveillance Squad: The GSR Squad is equipped with 3 an/PPS-15 GSR Teams. This Squad of GSRs can be kept back to conduct GS Mission for the DIVISION (for example to Support Division rear area operations) or can be tasked dow to support DS CO.

e. REMBASS Section: one section of GSQ-187 REMBASS. This section of REMBASS can be kept back to conduct GS Mission for the DIVISION (for example to Support Division rear area operations) or can be tasked dow to support DS CO.

3. Collection and Jamming Platoon: The GS CO has three C&J platoons, each of which will probably be attached to the DS CO. Each C&J platoon is made up of the following elements.

a. Platoon HeadQuarters: This is the Platoon Leader and Plt SGT.

b. Transcription and Analysis team (T&A): it performs selective scanning and gisting of voice intercepts recorded by collection teams. It performs limited analysis and reports combat information to the division ACE and the supported BDE's ACT. It also provides asset management of the platoons collection, and is focal point for the tasking and reporting associated with the platoon operation down from the division and to the assets and back up.

C. The Platoon Headquarters and the T&A team are collocated together and forms what is KNOWN as the Platoon Operation Center or POC.

D. The Voice Collection Team performs HF/VHF/UHF voice intercept with the PRD-10/11/12 and TRQ-32. This Team is a 6 man team that can perform limited 24 hour operations.

E. Low Level Voice Intercept (LLVI) Section: The LLVI section is made up of three LLVI teams. Each LLVI team is a usually a three personnel Man Pack intercept team equip with an PRD 10/11/12. The LLVI TM can also have a HMMWV and Power the PRD system from VEHicle DC POWER instead of Batteries.

INTERIM GS CO on the battle field
J. This slide shows how the GS CO deploys on the battle field.
Slide 39:
Interim Lt DIV LRSD
K. The Long Range Surveillance Detachment has the mission to provide long range (cross FLOT) HUMINT collection against point targets. LRSD Teams can deploy up 50 km cross flot for up to 6 days operations be being extracted or This detachment is only to be used for passive collection, not for combat operations. It is organized with a communications section and four, six man, surveillance teams. The communications section has two HF radio base stations for receiving HF burst transmissions from the deployed surveillance teams and reporting that information to the DIV ACE.
Slide 40:
LRSD on the Battle field
L. This slide shows you how LRSD can be deployed on the Battle field. Due to the nature of HF radio wave propagation, one of these base stations may have to be deployed behind the divisional rear boundary. The Surveillance Teams have 6 men assigned to each one, five of these men are infantry and one is a communications expert. These teams may deploy 50 KM cross FLOT for a period of 6 days without resupply, this distance is just a guideline for commanders. If the unit can support longer deployments the commander may send them out to whatever depth supportable. They may be deployed by land (stay behind, walking in), sea (river ops), or air (paradrop, air assault). Long range planning by CM is therefore very crucial. Not only does CM have to worry about collectors on our side of the FLOT but they now have to plan for collection against a point target up to 50 KM cross FLOT up to 6 days from deployment. The teams are only to be given one collection mission per deployment, moving these teams and changing their tasking will only expose them to a greater chance of discovery.
