  • Provides quality control and dissemination of reports for subordinate
  HCTs.
  • Directs the activities of subordinate HCTs and controls their
  operations.
  • Conducts limited single-discipline HUMINT analysis and mission
  analysis for the supported commander.
  • Acts as a conduit between subordinate HCTs, the HOC, and the
  C/J/G/S2X.
  • Reports the HCT mission and equipment status to the HOC and the
  command element.
  HUMINT COLLECTION TEAM
  2-11. HCTs are the elements that collect information from human sources.
  The HUMINT collectors deploy in teams of approximately four personnel in
  MOS 97E (HUMINT Collector) and MOS 351M (351E) (HUMINT
  Technician).
  2-12. The HCT may be augmented based on factors of mission, enemy,
  terrain and weather, troops and support available, time available, and civil
  considerations (METT-TC). Interpreters from the RC or civilian contractors
  with appropriate security clearances are added when necessary. TECHINT
  personnel or other specific subject-matter experts (SMEs) may augment the
  team to meet technical collection requirements. Another example would be
  pairing HUMINT collectors with dedicated analysts to provide sharper focus
  to the interrogation effort. In fixed detention facilities, these HUMINT
  collector or analyst relationships may become more enduring. Commanders
  are not encouraged to mix HUMINT collectors and CI agents on a single
  team. Doing so seriously undermines the ability to conduct both the
  HUMINT collection and CI missions simultaneously. However, commanders
  may find times when METT-TC factors make it reasonable to augment a CI
  team with HUMINT support for a mission, or vice versa.
  COMMAND DEBRIEFING TEAM
  2-13. A command debriefing team is normally not a table of organization and
  equipment (TOE) organization but may be task organized to meet mission
  requirements. This task-organized team is normally OPCON to the HOC.
  Although more prevalent during stability and reconstruction operations,
  senior personnel will often acquire information of intelligence interest during
  the normal course of their duties. The HUMINT collection assets,
  particularly at division echelon or higher, will normally task organize a team
  of more senior, experienced individuals to debrief these senior unit personnel.
  In offensive and defensive operations, this same team is prepared to
  interrogate high-value detainees (including EPWs) or debrief senior civilians.
  The command debriefing team should not be confused with the G2/S2
  debriefing program, which also is critical and is an important conduit of
  information.
