About

This document provides doctrine and practical guidance for commanders, judge advocates, and paralegals across the spectrum of conflict, with a focus on air operations. All military missions and operations require proper authority to act and comply with various laws, rules, and regulations. A basic tenet of any military operation is the Armed Forces only conduct operations when affirmatively authorized or directed to do so by a competent authority. National security authorities originate in the Constitution and reside in Article 1, Section 8, Congress's enumerated powers, and Article II, Section 2, President's Commander-in-Chief powers.
