National Personnel Recovery Architecture Study

Final Report Briefing

Institute for Defense Analyses

World Wide Personnel Recovery Conference

31 August 2004

Page 3: PR_Conf_Brief_Panel_3

04/10/23-3

“…conduct a government wide interagency needs assessment in order to define the components of a fully integrated national personnel recovery architecture. The assessment should include a consideration of service personnel, civilians and contract personnel, and examine the possible consolidation of training programs. The study should recommend a coordinated national goal for personnel recovery, roles and responsibilities of each department, agency or office…DPMO lead”

Congressional tasking for the NPRA Study

Study Scope Limited To

• Presently planned force structure of all agencies/departments

• Improved coordination, synergy, and leveraging among US Government Departments and Agencies

• Overseas Personnel Recovery

• Military, civilian and contractor personnel on official duty

Proposed Definition of PR

Personnel Recovery – is the sum of military, diplomatic, and civil efforts to prepare and execute the recovery of U.S. military, government civilians, and government contractors, who become isolated from friendly control while participating in U.S. sponsored activities abroad, and of other persons as designated by the President.

Personnel Recovery Related Capabilities

•Current capability is compartmented rather than integrated •National Architecture should benefit from synergy among agency capabilities

Page 8: PR_Conf_Brief_Panel_3

04/10/23-9

Two General Situations for PR

Combatant Commander (COCOM) in charge – Combat theaters such as Afghanistan and Iraq, where there was no U.S. Mission, PR was a military responsibility

– The PR Commander and staff (e.g., JSRC, RCC) have the authority and capability to execute PR without real-time coordination above the JTF

Chief of Mission (CoM) in charge – Countries where there is a U.S. Mission, but there are no U.S. PR forces. PR responsibilities of the host nation and the U.S. Mission are fragmented.

– CoM and the host nation have responsibilities, but generally no standing capability causing time delays.

– PR coordination process is complex involving multiple players depending on the situation

– When a PR incident occurs, coordination and response is time-sensitive, but instead are likely to be ad hoc, causing excessive delays

– Isolated Personnel are likely to be captured or killed if prior coordination is not affected and response is not exercised.

Page 9: PR_Conf_Brief_Panel_3

04/10/23-12

CoM in Charge – Shortfalls

• No interagency policy, doctrine, or procedures for PR (D)

• DoS focus on security and evacuation; no mention of PR (D)

• Host Nation understanding, cooperation, capabilities, interoperability are critical, but usually lacking (O)

• Crisis Management Support Center, Political Military Action Team, Foreign Emergency Support Team, and Emergency Action Committee not organized to respond to PR incidents in time-sensitive manner (O)

• Limited number of people have received PR training (personnel at risk, management/staff, or recovery force) (T, P)

• Limited awareness or use of DoD tools or aids outside of DoD (M)

• Limited awareness of PR at senior leader levels (L)

• Numerous contractor coverage limitations (D, P)

• No focused PR training, exercises, or facilities outside DoD (F)

Page 10: PR_Conf_Brief_Panel_3

04/10/23-13

CoM in Charge – Solutions

• NSPD required in order to– Establish National Policy and NSC oversight (D)– Create an organizational infrastructure to support PR (O)

» DoS focal point office; country team PR coordination cells– Identify and fund PR training and equipment requirements (T, M)

• Ensure Joint Pub 3-50 addresses interagency issues (D)

• Standardize PR policy and support with regard to government civilians and contractors (D, P)

• Top-down planning emphasis, i.e., include PR in DoS Strategic Plan, Mission Performance Plans, Emergency Action Plans, evacuation, and Cooperative Security Plans (D)

• Improve PR training – Develop senior leader and staff planning and isolated person PR courses at

NFATC and NDU (JPRA assist) (T, L) – Expand PR training provided by JPRA and CRCs (T)– Conduct PR exercises in high threat countries to improve readiness (T)

• Establish interagency materiel development process to pool resources (M)

Page 11: PR_Conf_Brief_Panel_3

04/10/23-15

COCOM in Charge – Shortfalls

• No Joint PR doctrine exists; capabilities are Service-centric and do not address non-DoD interagency/coalition policies, concerns,or capabilities (D)

• PR organizational infrastructure lacks cohesiveness and robustness– JPRA not truly joint and not resourced to provide liaison support to

interagency community (O)– COCOM JSRCs (other than CENTCOM) are not adequately staffed

» CENTCOM borrowed other COCOM personnel (O, P)– Insufficient personnel structure in Services (O, P)– PRAG and PRRC not efficiently organized (O)

• Joint training seldom exercises PR; no dedicated PR exercise (T)

• Survival, Evasion, Resistance, and Escape training backlog increasing (T)

• Requirements for materiel and development programs are managed individually, not integrated (M, O)

• Contractor policies not standard across services, not enforced (D)

Page 12: PR_Conf_Brief_Panel_3

04/10/23-16

COCOM in Charge – Solutions

• Update Joint Personnel Recovery Doctrine Joint Pub 3-50 (D)

• Revise/implement policies in accordance with the NSPD (D)

• Expand the Joint Staff office for PR, expand DPMO PR Directorate to support Interagency, better integrate JPRA into JFCOM (O, P)

• Reengineer PRAG and PRRC (O)

• Expand PR joint training to include interagency and coalition (T)

• Validate SERE training requirements, implement the Core Captivity Curriculum, and expand facilities to meet requirements (T, F)

• Develop a Joint PR modernization plan for materiel (M)

• Ensure that PR policy and support is enforced for DoD civilians and contractors (D, P)

Page 13: PR_Conf_Brief_Panel_3

04/10/23-17

Key NPRA Recommendations

• Need an NSPD to create the National architecture (D, O)– Define PR and the scope– Develop interagency organizational infrastructure– Provide adequate resources (funds and personnel)

• Initiate a program with DoS to assess and enhance US Embassies’ readiness to respond at short notice to PR incidents (D, O, T)

– Conduct periodic PR assessments in the embassies to improve planning and preparation

– Leverage all available programs and resources– Improve host nation capability

• The NPRA provides US government contractors the same PR coverage as provided to government personnel (D, P)

– Develop Department and Agency policies and revise the Federal Acquisition Regulation

• Revamp the approach to survival, evasion and resistance training (T)– Implement Core Captivity Curriculum– Increase JPRA throughput– Improve DoS training for non-DoD agencies– Review and certify private sector training capabilities

Page 14: PR_Conf_Brief_Panel_3

04/10/23-18

NSPD

Establishes an Interagency Definition

for Personnel Recovery

Personnel recovery is the sum of military, diplomatic, and civil efforts to prepare and execute the recovery of U.S. military, government civilians, and government contractors, who become isolated from friendly control while participating in U.S. sponsored activities abroad, and of other persons as designated by the President.

Page 15: PR_Conf_Brief_Panel_3

04/10/23-19

NSPD

Establishes National Policy

• Recover all U.S. military, government civilians, government contractors, and others designated by the President who are isolated from friendly control while participating in a government-sponsored activity and return them to a safe environment

• Isolated personnel will adhere to the following guidelines:

– Assist other Americans and do nothing that may harm a fellow American– Resist attempts by captors to exploit them and refuse special treatment– Refuse to make written, oral or videotaped statements harmful to the U.S.– Carefully plan actions realizing that decisions can impact the Government’s ability

to affect recovery or release

Page 16: PR_Conf_Brief_Panel_3

04/10/23-20

NSPD

Underscores ResponsibilitiesTwo General Personnel Recovery Situations

• Military operations in support of U.S. policy– Combatant Commander responsible for protecting U.S military, U.S.

Government civilians, U.S. Government contractors and coalition partners

• No on-going U.S. military operations

– Chief of Mission responsible for monitoring the recovery of U.S. Government civilians and U.S. Government contractors

– Actual recovery operations are normally the responsibility of the host nation

– Likely to be a cooperative effort between U.S. Mission, host nation, and DoD

Page 17: PR_Conf_Brief_Panel_3

04/10/23-21

NSPD

Directives

• Counter-terrorism and Security Group Policy Coordination Committee of NSC will coordinate PR policy and recommend PR response options to the President

• DoD will develop PR policy for interagency coordination; NSC will coordinate policy with Departments and Agencies

• All Departments/Agencies

– Will participate in planning and executing PR missions consistent with respective capabilities

– Shall establish a PR office or focal point

– Will identify PR training and support requirements and PR capabilities and limitations

• Instruction to Chief of Mission will emphasize deliberate, integrated PR planning to include the establishment of a PR cell in selected countries

• DoS will plan in advance PR activities (education, training, and exercises) for high-risk countries

• DoS will assist the host nation in meeting PR requirements

Definition Changes

• Personnel Recovery. The sum of military, diplomatic, and civil efforts to effect the recovery and reintegration of isolated personnel.

• Isolate Personnel changed definition to US military, DOD civilians, and DOD contractor personnel (and others designated by the President or Secretary of Defense) who are separated (as an individual or group) from their unit while participating in a US sponsored military activity or mission and are or may be in a situation where they must survive, evade, resist, or escape.

• High-Risk-of-Capture changed to High-Risk-of Isolation (HRI) Personnel. Personnel whose position or assignment makes them particularly vulnerable to being isolated, captured, and exploited by adversary forces, terrorists, or unfriendly governments.

Page 43: PR_Conf_Brief_Panel_3

50

Definition Changes Cont.

• Joint Combat Search and Rescue Operation. A combat search and rescue operation in support of a component's military operations that has exceeded the combat search and rescue capabilities of that component and requires the efforts of two or more components of the joint force. Normally, the operation is conducted by the joint force commander or a component commander that has been designated by joint force commander tasking.

• Joint Search and Rescue Center (JSRC) change to Joint Personnel Recovery Center (JPRC). The primary joint force organization responsible for planning and coordinating personnel recovery for military operations within the assigned operational area.

Page 44: PR_Conf_Brief_Panel_3

51

Definition Changes Cont.

• Non-Conventional Assisted Recovery (NAR). Personnel recovery conducted by special operations forces unconventional warfare ground and maritime forces and other government agencies who are specifically trained and directed to establish and operate indigenous or surrogate infrastructures for personnel recovery.

• Opportune personnel recovery. A survivor-initiated, indigenous-assisted recovery, whereby an isolated person takes advantage of an opportunity to enlist the aid of indigenous personnel in finding their way back to friendly forces.

Page 45: PR_Conf_Brief_Panel_3

52

Definition Changes Cont.

• Personnel Recovery-Capable Forces. Forces that are not necessarily organized, trained, or equipped for personnel recovery, but have a recognized ability to perform some elements of personnel recovery.

• Rescue Coordination Center (RCC) change to Personnel Recovery Coordination Cell (PRCC). The primary joint force component organization responsible for coordinating and controlling component personnel recovery missions.

Page 46: PR_Conf_Brief_Panel_3

53

Definition Changes Cont.

• Personnel Recovery-Dedicated Forces. These forces organized, trained, and equipped for personnel recovery and identified by their component commander to the joint force commander as the primary forces to form a combat search and rescue task force in the conduct of personnel recovery operations.

• Recovery Team (RT). Designated US or US-directed forces, that are specifically trained to operate unilaterally or in conjunction with indigenous or surrogate forces, and are tasked to contact, authenticate, support, move and exfiltrate isolated personnel. Recovery teams may interoperate with other nonconventional assisted recovery forces, and other US or multinational personnel recovery capabilities.

Page 47: PR_Conf_Brief_Panel_3

54

Definition Changes Cont.

• Unconventional Assisted Recovery (UAR). Nonconventional assisted recovery conducted by special operations forces (SOF). As a subset of unconventional warfare, SOF can conduct unconventional assisted recovery unilaterally, in conjunction with indigenous or surrogate personnel, or in conjunction with other government agencies employing compartmented tactics, techniques, and procedures.

• Unconventional Assisted Recovery Coordination Center (UARCC). A compartmented special operations forces facility staffed on a continuous basis by supervisory personnel and tactical planners to coordinate, synchronize, and de-conflict nonconventional assisted recovery operations within the operational area assigned to the joint force commander. The joint force special operations component commander establishes the unconventional assisted recovery coordination center to manage existing nonconventional assisted recovery capability.

Page 48: PR_Conf_Brief_Panel_3

55

Definition Changes Cont.

• Unconventional Assisted Recovery Team (UART). A designated special operations forces unconventional warfare ground or maritime force capable of conducting unconventional assisted recovery unilaterally, or with indigenous or surrogate forces.

NPRA Study definition of Personnel Recovery covers US Government (USG) contractors:

Personnel recovery is the sum of military, diplomatic, and civil efforts to prepare and execute the recovery of U.S. military, government civilians, and government contractors, who become isolated from friendly control while participating in U.S. sponsored activities abroad, and of other persons as designated by the President.

Page 53: PR_Conf_Brief_Panel_3

Some Background …GAO findings, June 2003

“ Guidance at the DOD, combatant

command and service levels … varies

widely … mechanism for managing

contractors is inconsistent. Only the

Army has developed substantial

guidance and policies (FM 3-100.21).

There is no standardization of

necessary language for deployment of

Contractors. This situation can …impede

the local commander’s ability to provide

force protection and support to

contractor personnel.”

DOD, INDUSTRY DEBATE NEW RULES FOR

CONTRACTORS IN COMBAT ZONES

_______________________________________________

INSIDE The NAVY,    Date: August 16, 2004  

The defense industry and Pentagon are trying to clarify how to

split up responsibilities between deployed troops and the

contractors helping them, a topic that has become more

pressing as contractors increasingly find themselves in combat

situations.

Page 55: PR_Conf_Brief_Panel_3

62

IDA Study Team set out to:

• Examine approaches to mitigating and managing risk of USG contractor capture, injury, isolation.

• Refine the USG contracting process to reduce PR vulnerability while ensuring the means of PR success.

• Recommend remedies to resolving the shortfall(s) in the mid- and long-term .

• Broader NPRA implications … seek interagency remedies where possible.

Page 56: PR_Conf_Brief_Panel_3

• Doctrine … Army Field Manual 3-100.21, Contractors on the Battlefield, provided a Service-level, comprehensive concept for employment of contractors in high-risk venues. Potential to serve as source of best practices for eventual Joint doctrine, and interagency application.

Potential Enablers

• Policy … Joint Staff, J4, Draft DoD Directive and Instructions (DoDD / I), Management of Contractor Personnel During Contingency Operations.

• DoD-wide Policy guidance to address GAO findings in combatant commands.• May drive re-look of DoD 1300-series documents for currency.

• Regulations … Contract Language … GSA, Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) language to drive …

• USG and contractor integrated planning, CONUS prep & risk management in execution … starts at solicitation.• Interagency data base for USG contractor accountability.

• National Security Presidential Directive … drive interagency PR .
