   Civil-military operations center.
   CA operations staff support.
  * Military government operations. Military government operations are operations executed by
  civil affairs to provide expertise in the civil sector functions in order to establish transitional
  military authority or conduct support to civil administration (FM 3-57). While the Department of
  State has the lead for stabilization and reconstruction, the DOD has a requirement to support that.
  DODD 5100.01 directs the Army to establish military government when occupying enemy
  territory, and DODD 2000.13 identifies military government as a directed requirement under CA
  operations. Although CA forces enable military government by conducting military government
  operations, there is currently no overarching concept or doctrine within DOD or the Army on how
  to establish a transitional military authority. CA forces provide expertise in civilian sector
  functions that are typically the responsibility of civilian authorities to establish local government
  capability or to enhance its capacity. This core competency is normally executed in support of
  Department of State operations or when directed in the absence of other U.S. government
  capabilities. Military government operations include the following functions:
   Transitional military authority.
   Support to civil administration.
  * CA supported activities. Civil affairs supported activities are activities in which civil affairs
  plays a key planning, coordinating or synchronizing role, but for which they are not the proponent
  or primary executor (FM 3-57). CA supported activities are comprised of the following functions:
   Foreign assistance.
   Foreign humanitarian assistance.
   Populace and resources control.
   Civil-military engagement.
  D-5. Table D-4 provides an overview of CA units, planning requirements, and capabilities for units that
  may be task-organized to the support area designated land owner or tenant unit of the corps or division support
  area. For additional information on the capabilities of CA units, see ATP 3-57.70 and FM 3-57.
