text: Army Operations Overview
  personnel serve at nearly every echelon and must integrate early and proactively during the planning and
  execution of their organization’s mission to provide effective legal support and ensure compliance with the
  law. (See FM 3-0 for more information on multidomain operations.)
  OPERATIONAL ENVIRONMENTS
  2-11. The operational environment is the aggregate of the conditions, circumstances, and influences that
  affect the employment of capabilities and bear on the decisions of the commander (JP 3-0). An operational
  environment (known as an OE) includes portions of the land, maritime, air, space, and cyberspace domains;
  understood through three dimensions (human, physical, and information). (See figure 2-2for a depiction of
  the domains and dimensions of an operational environment.)

  2-12. Commanders must understand the domains, and the capabilities of friendly and enemy forces in each,
  to identify create and exploit relative advantages during operations. Judge advocates and paralegals must also
  understand the domainsand associated capabilities to operate in each and effectively advise the command on
  the application of law and policy. Understanding an operational environment is inherently complex.
  Operations in the land domain leverage the capabilities in the other domains and dimensions to expand
  opportunities over time and allow Army forces to defeat evenly matched peer threats. Judge advocates and
  paralegals who understand law and policy play a critical role in helping the commander visualize advantages
  and disadvantages in the information and human dimensions.
  TENETS AND IMPERATIVES
  2-13. The tenets of operations are summarized below. (See FM 3-0 for more information about the tenets
  and imperatives.)
  2-14. The tenets of operations are desirable attributes that should be built into all plans and operations, and
  they are directly related to how the Army’s operational concept should be employed. Commanders use the
  tenets of operations to inform and assess courses of action throughout the operations process. The degree to
  which anoperation exhibits the tenets provides insight into the probability for success. Judge advocates and
  paralegals play a key role in imbuing the tenets into operations. The tenets of operations are—
