  PLANNING CONSIDERATIONS FOR LEGAL SUPPORT
  3-68. Prioritization of legal support to meet the numerous demands of the operations process requires
  understanding and analyzing by JAG Corps supervisors to ensure delivery of accurate and timely legal
  support. Understanding and analysis of the events and meetings occurring throughout the operations process
  allows OJSA supervisors to tailor the structure of their legal element and legal support based on the unit’s
  battle rhythm and operations. Whenever available, OSJA supervisors fully integrate and use any
  multinational assets that are available to them and develop systems and procedures that are consistent with
  the multinational operations approach. (See table 3-3 for a listing of legal support demands during large-scale
  combat operations.)
