  • MILITARY INTELLIGENCE PB 34-09-2 Volume 35 Number 2 April - June 2009
    MIPB April - June 2009 PB 34-O9-2 Operations in OEF Afghanistan FROM THE EDITOR In this issue, three articles offer perspectives on operations in Afghanistan. Captain Nenchek dis- cusses the philosophy of the evolving insurgent “syndicates,” who are working together to resist the changes and ideas the Coalition Forces bring to Afghanistan. Captain Beall relates his experiences in employing Human Intelligence Collection Teams at the company level in both Iraq and Afghanistan. Lieutenant Colonel Lawson provides a look into the balancing act U.S. Army chaplains as non-com- batants in Afghanistan are involved in with regards to Information Operations. Colonel Reyes discusses his experiences as the MNF-I C2 CIOC Chief, detailing the problems and solutions to streamlining the intelligence effort. First Lieutenant Winwood relates her experiences in integrating intelligence support into psychological operations. From a doctrinal standpoint, Lieutenant Colonels McDonough and Conway review the evolution of priority intelligence requirements from a combined operations/intelligence view. Mr. Jack Kem dis- cusses the constructs of assessment during operations–measures of effectiveness and measures of per- formance, common discussion threads in several articles in this issue. George Van Otten sheds light on a little known issue on our southern border, that of the illegal im- migration and smuggling activities which use the Tohono O’odham Reservation as a corridor and offers some solutions for combined agency involvement and training to stem the flow. Included in this issue is nomination information for the CSM Doug Russell Award as well as a biogra- phy of the 2009 winner.

  • The Notion of Military Administration
    ROCZNIK BEZPIECZEŃSTWA MORSKIEGO ROK XIII – 2019 Ryszard Szynowski Akademia WSB THE NOTION OF MILITA R Y ADMINISTRATION ABSTRACT The following article refers to the notion of military administration. The cognitive procedure was focused around the definition of “military administra- tion”, and research was focused on recognizing the elementary facts that are related to this notion. The aim of the article is to present and organize the most important methodological approaches that refer to the notion of “military administration”. To achieve this goal, the method of document examination was employed, which made it possible to accumulate, sort, describe and scientifically interpret the issues of military administration. By pinpointing and justifying the problem, a stance was taken in the face of the views of other authors, who considered all the aspects of “military administration”. From a scientific point of view, the topic described below and the attempt at defining the notion of “military ad- ministration” can lead to conclusions which have not been a topic of discussion for many years. Key words: military administration, government administration, National De- fence Minister, National Defence Ministry. INTRODUCTION The Armed Forces of the Republic of Poland [Siły Zbrojne Rzeczypo- spolitej Polskiej (SZ RP)] are obliged to prevent and counteract external threats. Because of the human resource, a proven directorial structure, equip- ment and training, the Armed Forces of the Republic of Poland are also trained to support the counteracting, fighting and removing the aftermath of existing crisis situations. For operational efficiency in times of peace, crisis and war, the 1 Ryszard Szynowski existence of military administration is crucial, as well as its co-operation with other public administration organs.
