text: Intelligence Warfighting Function Tasks
  Establish a Mission Intelligence Briefing Plan (2.3.4.1.1)
  B-69. The intelligence section develops a mission intelligence briefing plan. It identifies information that
  Soldiers conducting patrols should seek. The plan ensures all Soldiers conducting engagements, patrols,
  tactical movements, and nontactical movements are sensitized to specific information and reporting
  requirements, information gaps, and unique mission requirements. The mission intelligence briefing and
  debriefing generally follow the format of a mission briefing: review the route traveled, patrol collection
  objectives, and methods employed.
  Establish a Debriefing Plan (2.3.4.1.2)
  B-70. The intelligence section develops a complementary debriefing plan and coordinates for human
  intelligence support, when appropriate. The debriefing plan captures information related to the specific
  information requirements the patrol collected on and any additional information and observations the patrol
  made concerning the OE. It also includes collected information, such as fliers, pamphlets, media, or pictures,
  the patrol found or obtained. The plan should involve all returning patrols and leaders who traveled to
  meetings, returning human intelligence collection teams, aircrews, and others who may have obtained
  information of intelligence value. The intelligence section debriefs personnel; debriefers then write and
  submit reports or verbally report information, as appropriate. The requirement for an intelligence section
  debriefing following each mission should be included in the mission intelligence briefing. Leaders should
  not consider a mission complete and release personnel until the reporting and debriefing are complete.
  Conduct Intelligence Coordination (2.3.4.2)
  B-71. The intelligence section conducts intelligence coordination to facilitate active collaboration laterally and
  vertically. This includes establishing and maintaining technical channels to refine and focus the intelligence
  disciplines on the information collection tasks. It also properly coordinates intelligence discipline collection
  assets when operating in another unit’s AO. Conduct intelligence coordination includes two subtasks.
  Ensure Proper Authorities and Deconflict Authorities, When Necessary (2.3.4.2.1)
  B-72. When necessary, intelligence operations should be coordinated with and supported by the proper
  authorities. For example, during cyberspace operations, a resource can be contested between Title 10, USC,
  and Title 50, USC, operations; therefore, deconfliction of the resource is crucial.
  Establish and Maintain Technical Authority and Channels (2.3.4.2.2)
  B-73. Intelligence commanders and intelligence staffs maintain control of each intelligence discipline during
  operations through technical channels to ensure adherence to applicable laws and policies, ensure proper use
  of doctrinal techniques, and provide technical support and guidance. Applicable laws and policies include all
  relevant U.S. laws, the law of war, international laws, DOD directives, DOD instructions, and orders.
  Although commanders direct operations, they often rely on the intelligence section’s technical expertise to
  conduct portions of the unit’s collection effort. Technical channels also involve translating information
  collection tasks into the specific parameters used to focus highly technical or legally sensitive aspects of the
  information collection effort. Technical channels include but are not limited to—
  ⚫ Defining, managing, or guiding the use of specific collection assets.
  ⚫ Identifying critical technical collection criteria such as technical indicators.
  ⚫ Recommending collection techniques, procedures, or assets.
  ⚫ Coordinating operations.
  ⚫ Directing specialized training for specific MI personnel or units.
  Conduct Deconfliction and Coordination (2.3.4.2.3)
  B-74. Conducting deconfliction and coordination consists of a series of related activities that facilitate
  operations in another unit’s AO. These activities facilitate successful information collection, support the
  operation, and support fratricide avoidance. MI organizations may be used in general support for coverage of
  an AO or in direct support to a specific unit. MI organizations operating in general support should coordinate
  with unit commanders when operating in that unit’s AO. At a minimum, the MI organizations should announce
