  (cid:122) The ability to inform a wide range of audiences to maintain legitimacy and promote the friendly
  narrative.
  (cid:122) The ability to rapidly share and analyze information among commanders and staffs to facilitate
  decisions and orders.
  HUMAN ADVANTAGES
  6-32. Because war is a clash between opposing human wills, the human dimension is central to war. Army
  formations are principally designed to achieve objectives through the threat or employment of lethal force,
  which has a psychological effect. Understanding an enemy force’s tolerance for casualties and the political
  and social will to endure them is important to understanding the level of effort required to prevail against
  enemy forces in large-scale combat operations. Leaders do everything possible in the physical and
  information dimensions to reduce the enemy’s will to fight. During armed conflict, human advantages
  include—
  (cid:122) Political and national will that supports strategic objectives.
  (cid:122) Experienced, well-trained formations.
  (cid:122) Leadership well versed in the mission command approach to C2.
  (cid:122) Adherence to the law of war.
  (cid:122) Unit cohesion and Soldiers with the mental and physical stamina for combat.
  (cid:122) The trust of the host-nation population.
  (cid:122) Confidence in a sustainment system that provides the best possible medical treatment and adequate
  supplies.
  (cid:122) Interoperability and mutual trust between allies and host-nation partners.
  OPERATING AS PART OF THE JOINT FORCE
  6-33. The Army always fights as part of a joint force, and usually as part of a multinational coalition during
  large-scale combat operations. Because combatant commanders (CCDRs) often assign the senior Army
  commander as the joint force land component commander (JFLCC), it is imperative that Army leaders from
  the JFLCC to brigade level understand the integration of operations on land with those in the other domains
  for the joint force.
  6-34. The Army supports the joint force by providing the capabilities and capacity to apply sustained
  combined arms landpower through movement, close combat, and fires at whatever scale is necessary to defeat
  enemies on land. It does this by employing capabilities from the land, maritime, air, space, and cyberspace
  domains in support of ground operations on land and employing ground-based capabilities to enable
  operations in the other domains.
  6-35. Army forces’ contributions to the joint force extend well beyond Army support to other Services
  (ASOS) through a variety of actions. They include—
  (cid:122) Establish C2 on land.
  (cid:122) Counter air and missile threats that deny air and maritime freedom of action with land-based
  systems.
  (cid:122) Defend and control key terrain.
  (cid:122) Defeat components of enemy antiaccess (A2) and area denial (AD).
  (cid:122) Conduct large-scale combat operations.
  (cid:122) Sustain large-scale combat operations.
  (cid:122) Consolidate gains.
  ESTABLISH COMMAND AND CONTROL ON LAND
  6-36. Establishing C2 on land requires a land component command that assigns land areas and properly
  defines command and support relationships between subordinate forces. A commander assigns land areas
  and command and support relationships based on the mission and the commander’s concept of operations. A
  commander also considers the level of joint support available when assigning land areas and task-organizing
