  information to audiences and affect information content and flow of enemy or adversary decision-making
  while protecting friendly information flow. The information operations staff planner prepares appendix 15
  and a portion of appendixes 12,13,and 14 to Annex C (Operations) to the operation order. (SeeFM3-13 for
  additional information.)
  Staff Weather Officer
  4-220. The staff weather officer is a U.S. Air Force officer or noncommissioned officer who coordinates
  operational weather support and weather service matters through the S-2 and other staff members. The staff
  weather officer collects environmental information and uses this information to produce and disseminate an
  environmental running estimate,mission execution forecast,and watches warnings and advisories. The staff
  weather officer integrates weathereffects into planning and execution and responds to weather requests for
  information. The staff weather officer prepares Tab B (Weather) to Appendix 1 (Intelligence Estimate) to
  Annex B (Intelligence) to the operation order. (SeeFM 2-0 for additional information.)
  Provost Marshal
  4-221. The provost marshal is responsible for planning, coordinating, requesting, and employing all
  assigned or attached military police assets. Usually,the provost marshal is the senior military police officer
  in the command. The provost marshal augments the staff with a small planning cell that works within the S-3
  typically. The provost marshal prepares a portion of Annex C (Operations) and a portion of Annex E
  (Protection) to the operation order. (SeeFM 3-39 for additional information.)
  AUGMENTATION
  4-222. Often,the BCT and its subordinate units receive support from (or attached) augmentation teams to
  assist in the exercise of commandand control. Commanders within the BCT integrate this support or attached
  teams or detachments into their CPs and operations. For example, a division may receive an Army space
  support team when deployed. An Army space support team within a division can provide the BCT with space
  related planning that may directly affect BCT operations. Critical space related information provided to BCT
  operations includes navigation accuracy forecasts for planning and conducting mission and maneuver
  operations in support of fires and targeting effects. Space operations identify deliberate enemy interference
  activities such as attempts to jam friendly communications systems and navigation warfare that directly
  impacts targeting and maneuver forces. The BCT commander may request staff augmentation. Augmentation
  teams include but are not limited to—
  (cid:122) Army space support team. (See FM 3-14.)
  (cid:122) Army cyberspace operations support team. (See FM 3-12.)
  (cid:122) Civil affairs company. (See FM 3-57.)
  (cid:122) Combat camera team. (See FM 3-61.)
  (cid:122) Legal support teams. (See FM 1-04.)
  (cid:122) Mobile public affairs detachment. (See FM 3-61.)
  (cid:122) Military history detachment. (See ATP 1-20.)
  (cid:122) PSYOPunits. (See FM 3-53.)
  (cid:122) Army information operations field support team. (See FM 3-13.)
  (cid:122) Individual augmentation by specialty (assessment or economic development).
  COMMAND POST ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS
  4-223. A command post is a unit headquarters where the commander and staff perform their activities
  (FM6-0). The BCT commander balances the need to create a capable CP organization(s) to support the
  capacity to plan, prepare, execute, and continuously assess operations with the resulting diversion of
  capabilities to fight the enemy due to the size of the CP itself. Larger CPs ease face-to-face coordination:
  however, they are vulnerable to multiple acquisitions and means of attack. Smaller CPs can be hidden and
  protected more easily,but they may not exercise the degree of command and control necessary to control all
  BCT subordinate units. Striking the right balance provides a responsive yet agile organization. This section
