Money As A Weapons System Tactics Techniques And Procedures PDF Download

This Center for Army Lessons Learned (CALL) handbook assists company-, battalion-, and brigade-level officers and noncommissioned officers to effectively use money as a weapons system on the counterinsurgency (COIN) battlefield. Coalition money is defeating COIN targets without creating collateral damage, by motivating antigovernment forces to cease lethal and nonlethal operations, by creating and providing jobs along with other forms of financial assistance to the indigenous population, and by restoring or creating vital infrastructure. Money also funds other tools of war. This handbook is a guide and addresses some of the most common funds available to warfighters. Key lessons: - Money is a valuable weapons system. - Money and contracting in a COIN environment are vital elements of combat power. - Leaders must leverage money and contracting in operations. - Leaders must understand funding programs and contracting. - Brigades often lack internal resource management expertise and knowledge of funding. - Financial management administrative requirements in a combat environment can be extremely burdensome but are necessary for good stewardship. - Financial management expertise and knowledge of funding are critical to successful operations. - Without proactive leadership involvement, the potential for extensive fraud, waste, and abuse of funds exists in the COIN environment. Why buy a book you can download for free? We print this book so you don't have to. First you gotta find a good clean (legible) copy and make sure it's the latest version (not always easy).

We look over each document carefully and replace poor quality images by going back to the original source document. We proof each document to make sure it's all there - including all changes. If you find a good copy, you could print it using a network printer you share with 100 other people (typically its either out of paper or toner). If it's just a 10-page document, no problem, but if it's 250-pages, you will need to punch 3 holes in all those pages and put it in a 3-ring binder. Takes at least an hour.
