About

The Marine Corps Warfighting Publication 5-1(MCWP 5-1) was published in January 2000. MCWP 5-1, The Marine Corps Planning Process (MCPP), replaced in part the Fleet Marine Force Manual 3-1(FMFM 3-1) that was last updated in 1979. MCWP 5-1 is a much improved planning doctrine compared with the FMFM 3-1; however, the new process is directed at too high of a level to be the principle planning doctrine for lower level staffs. On the first page of the MCWP 5-1 it states, "Although the publication is written for planning at the Marine Corps component, Marine Expeditionary Force (MEF), and Major Subordinate Command (MSC) levels, the planning process is easily scalable to the regiment, group, battalion, or squadron levels." 1 This is not the case.
