1. Developing JTCG/ME Publications.
Department of the Defense (DoD) Components (Army, Navy, Air
Force, Marine Corps, and DIA) collaborate to develop and publish
JTCG/ME documents. The Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS) and DoD
Components use these documents to plan and analyze attack mis-
sions, develop weapon requirements, and conduct wargaming exer-
cises. The JTCG/ME operates according to the Joint Logistics
Commanders (JLC)decisions and directions JTCG/ME publishes al
materiel according to the JTCG/ME Publication Information Guide,
61JTCG/ME 1–3.
