and Country Clearance Importance: High

LTC,

Thank you for your note, here is my best crack at answering these questions As a heads up to the 1 1

country folks. General Casey was asked by the analysts if the General would host a group of the analysts before the elections. not that anvoue would hold him to it. but he was verv sun~ortive. 1n fact. his exact statement from the transcript was " We are always happy to have folks comeover and run you around You know, when you get out there to these divisions and talk to these brigade and battalion commanders. some of them vou have iust seen on TV. vou reallv eet a sense of what thev are accomplishing And I must say, I just came back from a week's leavc a few weeks ago And you get a much different picture about what's going on here than you get from on the ground here "

Anyhow. 1 just wanted folks who arc working this up the chain to know that there might be some support for this at the top We are aware the Cascy may be out of country attending a conference here in the US, itus is ok for our planning purposes If the concern is assets needed to move the group around, we are realistically looking at arriving into BIAP, staying in DV quarters, being bnefed on base in Baghdad, with two possible excursions requiring support, one to witness ISF either training or maneuvers and a second to witness the efforts underway in Al Anbar or UD in Mosul or Al Tafar that demonstrate success ofjoint operations with the ISF and the Coalition and can highlight the lack of support internally in the country for the insurgency.

I hope this helps!

wan. ...a ". here is our fin*) list, i do n u anticipate adding anyone else, Iota1 package of 14 it has been my experience that we tend to loose 2 3 once we pull die trigger so i would not be surpoirsed if we got down to 11 or 12 ngnt now though we are looking at a total of 14, which includes escort staff (myself) and the senior OSD rep.-

WHAT/WHY: OSD PA sponsored trip to bring a select group of the most prolific retired military media analysts to Iraq prior to the October referendum to gain first band knowledge of the military successes on the ground. Goal would be to offer first band briefmes and a hoped for visit to an ISF minine center to offer the media analysts first person stories torecount of the progress being made in & i i g ISF. Would also like to get our analysts briefe successes of winning over the Iraqi people (much along the lines of the briefing offered by omf from Mosul last week, in fact, a day trip to Mosul to be briefed by the cot in person would be su vetall, this trip offers the military leadership in Iraq an unparalleled opportunity to update folks who will be doing literally hundreds of media interviews in the next few weeks with specific, and detailed stories of success that are not currently breaking through to the media. Our current trip manifest includes analysts for NBC, MSNBC, Fox News, CNN and CBS TV and CBS Radio.

WHEN: Proposed itinerary: pa& arrivcs ~ u w a i t airport Friday, October 6, met by DV escorts, taken to either local hotel or base, option for bnefing in Kuwait, dinner with troops Depart Kuwait tor Baghdad, Iraq, Fnday October 7, early am Bnefines in Iraq, possible site visit to . . - ..

MEMORANDUM FOR THE DIRECTOR OF THE JOINT IMPROVISED EXPLOSIVE DEVICE DEFEAT TASK FORCE, WASHINGTON, DC 20318-1000

SUBJECT: Terms of Reference

1. As you take the reins at the Joint IED Defeat Task Force (JIEDD TF), I offer the thoughts and recommendations below for your consideration.

2. Countering improvised explosive devices (C-IED) in the USCENTCCOM area of responsibility requires a comprehensive, integrated, balanced, and long-term approach. To be effective, any effort must seek both technological and non-technological solutions, as there is no single "silver bullet" answer. It must aggressively solicit and support new and novel methods to counter this increasingly lethal asymmetric threat. The C-IED effort requires a fully integrated Joint effort and long-term solutions involving well developed conceptual frameworks to make the most of our resources. In addition, in order to develop effective war-fighting network=, every effort must be made to concurrently develop coalition and partner-nation C-IED capabilities.

TEEMS OF REFERENCE COUNTER-IMPROVISED EXPLOSIVE DEVICES

1 Line of Operation 1 (Defeat the IED System) :

a. Developing persistent intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISRI strategies and systems to facilitate the defeat of the enemy's IED support system.

b. Developing high quality CONUS-based training for all services.

c Institutionalizing C-IED training and practices through programs of record.

d. Facilitating and formalizing bomb-maker targeting means. This includes biometries technology, Weapons Intelligence Teams (WIT), technical exploitation of discovered IEDs through appropriate organizations (CEXC and TEDAC), and search technologies and TTPs. ,

e. Develop a broad and holistic joint integrating strategy to defeat the IED system that includes but is not limited to C-IED intelligence analysis and dissemination, offensive C-IED operations, information and strategic communications operations, persistent surveillance, base defense, route clearance and force protection, and partner force development. This strategy will be the foundation for Combatant Command and CJTF C-IED strategies and plans.

2. Line of Oparation 2 (Defeat the IED Device) :

a. Developing stand-off Detection for suicide bombers, devices, and munitions. Special attention should be given to Passive Infra-Red (PIR) initiators and Explosive-Formed Projectiles (EFPs) .

b. Continue procuring Counter-Radio-Controlled Electronic Warfare (CREW) devices; they have been effective as counter measures. However, we require accelerated fielding of CREW I1 systems and continued develooment of the next aeneration CREW that is fullv integrated within all platforms. Additionally, CREW development must include systems we can share with our coalition partners.

c . Continue mitigating IED damage through the design and development of the next generation of personnel, operating base, infrastructure, and vehicle, protection systems.

3. Line of Operation 3 (Develop Coalition and Partner Nation Counter- IED Capability) :

a. Streamlining the process for sharing CREW and other C-IED technology with Coalition partners. Coalition partners must have access to CREW devices and other C-IED technologies when mission needs dictate.

b. Facilitating comprehensive C-IED training to Coalition partners. A Coalition C-IED training package is required and needs to be developed to support our Coalition partners.

Enclosure 1

c. Enabling classification of C-IED technology, activities, and issues to be as widely available as possible. We need a tiered classification method in order to facilitate C-IED information sharing.

Sir, C-IED TF has me kad I have been working W-issue with (bifiTf^wdh the CCJ2 for months now I will try toget IRQ chop dunng the night for my recommendation

BLUF, my recommendation is to establish a CENTCOM requirement as o)( iSi 4a (b)Ii)l 4a

MNFIC-1 has only submitted a requirement for 2 more PTDS (they have one) .. CFC-NCJTF-76 has a CENTCOM validated l i ) l i ) i 4. JIEDDO and the Army have funded for prcducdor lbll111 4s

The full requirement gets ugly because we have 3 separate assessments (one from DA G2, CAA, and JFCOM J9) that support a requirement for (M(I)I d3 I have been working MNC-1 for 6 months, and while we are getting closer we sun ao not nave a full comprehensive theater requirement beyond the lb)l111 4 a

If pressed for a decision tonight, my recommendation is to establish a CENTCOM requirement as (b)1111 4 a

I will send this into theater for their chop and fry to get their position during the night

Just returned from Congressman Jim Saxton's office where I accomoanled Army reps who were to explain 10 Mr Saxion wny i f s ta~en a year not 10 oelwei n 1 1 110 theater, given that a wear a00 he was oromtseo tha* aeolovment was mm nent For backofodnd do" 11 remember that DSD VCJCS and 1 have earned the waterwith Chmn of the H ~ S C on ISR issues for the ground force, particularly the Army. (bl(iii 4aias been a crucial part of a strategy that has precluded directed investments in far less capable systems.

. Tell me and Mr. Saxton when we can have the lblfi11 4a in theater (these will be first generation birds which will be PiP'd In striae ) hirst answer was November. I sad loo ate Te us Ã§na s reqd red to move mat oate UP ana when the first ava laole date is Want a i I! i?.n the frst trancn of systems n theater as soon as hJrnanly possible PM admired ater the meet ng he has flex to move to the left I made t cear to me Army reps mat lnese comrr tments WOL d be carved n stone witn Mr Saxion

7 - (bl(il1 4a for Afghanistan and Iraq We now have a JUONS for (bl(111 4a supposedly a rqmt in the pipeline for a number for Iraq

We reallv do need the theater position on the number very aulcklv.One word of caution._

(b l~ l l 4= Monies from the~upplemental wilt be tight JIEDDO gets aboutb~i)4dor whlcn in the pipeline we haveblllll 4,of requirements in the white world already documented, tho not all approved There is plenty more coming out of the black world and at least one uncompartrnented system that will lay down a big bill sometime in IVqtr.

We rea ly need your numoer but remember at21 1 1 * a pop. rf you as< for 1 1 we can't procure tnem unless we squeeze out other very va Laole systems, some of wh ch you anow aoodl some ofwh ch vo- 00 not or f "0" a0 i susoect vouve or v ha0 a bnef . , once over My sense is thatwith Iblllll 4a and using these where they do the most good(l)l or so ought to do thepb Remember you're getting a number of systems not anticipated two months ago ib)(-i)i 4a likely now

Ib)lill 4a they should take up some of the load and iq~ pushes the bill to almost 1b)Illl 4a

I'll work with Army to get the llrst(bW)l4Ã§l theater as quickly as possible JIEDDO will also answer the mail with Mr Saxton on how to enable that So we can work resourcing asap and aet this Droaram where it needs to be can vou aet me a fast no-kiddlna answer on . . - basisof issue forbl(-ni dsoonesf?
