What is PPP?
  • Presence, Posture, Profile (PPP) is a drill to
    assist forces in determining the attitude,
    deportment, and level of security they should
    adopt in any given situation

  • PPP is not Staff driven
  • It is Command driven (C3P)

PRESENCE
  • The impact that the mere presence of a force may
    have on perceptions might be significant
  • Deploying even limited capability to the right
    place at the right time can add substantial
    credibility to messages being delivered through
    other channels and provide a major contribution
    to deterrence
  • Depending on the situation, that presence will
    carry meaning

military presence (heavy or light)

POSTURE
  • At its simplest form it is the body language of
    the Force
  • The posture of troops on the ground can
    demonstrate both commitment and intent and must
    be considered and balanced with the requirement
    for force protection
  • At the simplest level, the decision to wear
    berets instead of combat helmets and body armor
    can make a considerable difference to the
    perceptions of both the enemy and local people
  • This includes how we arrive into an area, how
    visible we are, how much artillery, infantry,
    tanks, air and naval support that we bring, how
    we dress, and how we patrol
  • Remember that PPP is command driven

PROFILE
  • The public profile of commanders at all levels
    will impact on perceptions
  • The public role of the commander must be
    carefully analyzed and opportunities used to
    transmit key messages
  • What we do how regularly we patrol, whether we
    talk to civilians, this is about our specific
    interactions with the individuals and groups in
    the AO
  • The commander plays an especially important part.
    His public profile can impact upon perceptions
    and may create opportunities to get messages
    across
  • It goes to the extent of how often we are
    patrolling, do we engage with the LN
