  full-spectrum operations
  The Army’s operational concept: Army forces combine offensive, defensive, and stability
  or civil support operations simultaneously as part of an interdependent joint force to seize,
  retain, and exploit the initiative, accepting prudent risk to create opportunities to achieve
  decisive results. They employ synchronized action—lethal and nonlethal—proportional to the
  mission and informed by a thorough understanding of all variables of the operational
  environment. Mission command that conveys intent and an appreciation of all aspects of the
  situation guides the adaptive use of Army forces (FM 3-0).
