25
C2F Initial Guidance

• Expand the NACOE to Expeditionary Warfare COE
• Include Amphibious Warfare and NECC capabilities
• Expeditionary COE will align with Navys plan to
  reassign common/standard Task Force organizations
  within each numbered Fleet/NCC
• Continue to leverage the Navy and Marine Corps
  team
• Work with NECC and USMC to develop Exp Warfare
  COE MFT by Jan 09. Address recommended C2 and
  authorities while remaining consistent with the
  other WCOEs. Includes key outputs of COE
• Annual End-to-End assessment (DOTMLPF across
  ROMO) w/ brief to GO/FOs
• Annual POM/PR inputs (IPL) to C2F/USFF/USMC
• Situational urgent operational / training change
  requests (D,T,L) to C2F/USFF/USMC
• Zero manpower growth as this concept is
  developed.
• Plan for Navy O-6/O-7 lead with USMC Deputy/COS
• Plan to brief leadership by February with
  tentative IOC March 2009

26
C2F Additional Guidance

• 2 Pillars
• Expeditionary and Amphibious
• Continue MFT development
• Work out the command relationship

• EW COE Team must regard the recently released
  "ESG Way Ahead" message.
• In considering EWCOE Mission/Functions/Tasks,
  must factor the revised ESG 2/3/7 ROC POE and
  revised PHIBRON ROC/POE.
• Will require reconstitution of readiness and
  training capacity back to ESG and PHIBRON Staffs.
• Some "economy of force" for EW COE in view of the
  decision to reconstitute MFT to ESG 2/3/7 and
  PHIBRONs.
• Consider 75 total for EW COE

27
MCCDC Guidance

• Need to clearly define/identify
• What needs to be fixed from a Navy perspective?
• What needs to be fixed from a USMC perspective?
• How will the COE fix it?
• What are the envisioned staff action products of
  the EWCOE for both services?

28
2d Fleet Proposed Purpose

• The Surface Warfare (SUW) Warfighting Center of
  Excellence (WCOE) is the Navys lead
  organization, advocate and advisor for Naval,
  Joint and Combined SUW matters, synchronizing SUW

  coordinates and assesses all aspects of SUW
  training assesses and evaluates SUW warfighting
  readiness develops, validates and reviews
  SUW-related doctrine develops warfighting
  end-to-end assessments in support of SUW
  requirements generation coordinates and conducts
  SUW-related experimentation and augments and
  supports Joint and Fleet SUW operations.

  satisfy the expeditionary and amphibious
  requirements of the Maritime Strategy and
  Combatant Commanders Operational Plans.

Proposed EWCOE Purpose

• Expeditionary WCOE is the primary advisor for
  expeditionary and amphibious warfare to the CNO
  via Commander, Second Fleet, and USFF and the
  primary advisor for the Naval aspects of
  expeditionary and amphibious warfare to the CMC
  via MCCDC , synchronizing EW/AMW across the
  DOTMLPF spectrum. The WCOE coordinates and (?)
  assesses all aspects of expeditionary and
  amphibious training assesses and evaluates
  EW/AMW warfighting readiness develops ,
  validates and reviews EW/AMW-related doctrine
  develops performs warfighting end-to-end
  assessments in support of EW/AMW requirements
