  • Unmatched Power, Unmet Principles: the Human Rights Dimensions of US Training of Foreign Military and Police Forces
    Unmatched Power, Unmet Principles: The Human Rights Dimensions of US Training of Foreign Military and Police Forces Amnesty International USA Publications Cover: Johor, Malaysia—U.S. Marines and Malaysian soldiers participate in a simulated amphibious assault during the seventh annual Cooperation Afloat Readiness and Training 2001 exercise July 24. CARAT exercises employ simulated military scenarios designed to prepare U.S. and Malaysian forces to meet future challenges of disaster relief and humanitarian aid. CARAT, a series of bilateral exercises, takes place throughout the Western Pacific each summer. It aims to increase regional cooperation and promote interoperability with each country. The countries participating in CARAT 01 were: Indonesia, Singapore, Philippines, Thailand, Malaysia and Brunei. (U.S. Navy photo by Photographer's Mate 2nd Class Erin A. Zocco) In the mid 1990s, the US government revealed that for much of the previous decade the US Army's School of Americas (SOA) had used training manuals that advocated practices such as torture, extortion, kidnapping, and execution. While some curriculum changes have been implemented at this training institute, no one has ever been held accountable for the unlawful training manuals or for the behavior of SOA graduates. Further, the School of the Americas (now known as the Western Hemisphere Institute for Security Cooperation) is only one small part of vast and complex network of US programs for training foreign military and police forces that is often shrouded in secrecy. Such secrecy puts the United States at risk of training forces or individuals that commit human rights abuses. The United States government now trains at least 100,000 foreign police and soldiers from more than 150 countries each year in US military and policing doctrine and methods, as well as war-fighting skills, at the cost of tens of millions of dollars.

  • Personnel Recovery
    Joint Publication 3-50 Personnel Recovery 20 December 2011 PREFACE 1. Scope This publication provides doctrine for the preparation, planning, execution, and adaptation of personnel recovery (PR) by the Armed Forces of the United States during joint and multinational operations. 2. Purpose This publication has been prepared under the direction of the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff (CJCS). It sets forth joint doctrine to govern the activities and performance of the Armed Forces of the United States in operations and provides doctrine for conduct of PR. It also addresses military coordination with other US Government departments and agencies during PR and for US military involvement in multinational PR. It provides military guidance for the exercise of authority by combatant commanders and other joint force commanders (JFCs) and prescribes joint doctrine for operations and training. It provides military guidance for use by the Armed Forces in preparing their appropriate plans. It is not the intent of this publication to restrict the authority of the JFC from organizing the force and executing the mission in a manner the JFC deems most appropriate to ensure unity of effort in the accomplishment of the overall objective. 3. Application a. Joint doctrine established in this publication applies to the Joint Staff, commanders of combatant commands, subunified commands, joint task forces, subordinate components of these commands, the Services, and defense agencies in support of joint operations. b. The guidance in this publication is authoritative; as such, this doctrine will be followed except when, in the judgment of the commander, exceptional circumstances dictate otherwise. If conflicts arise between the contents of this publication and the contents of Service publications, this publication will take precedence unless the CJCS, normally in coordination with the other members of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, has provided more current and specific guidance.
