  Memorandum of Agreement (MOA)
  2-180. MOA are agreements between countries or eligible organizations that delineate responsibilities
  among the participants. Among these responsibilities are the participants’ financial liabilities for support.
  These agreements define the specific mechanisms required for reimbursement of costs. An example of the
  use of this authority is when multinational partners cooperate in a military operation. In this case, support
  can be provided to foreign forces with which the United States has an MOA. The agreement between the
  DOD and the defense ministries of other nations or between the DOD and international organizations must
  be based on specific legal authority and negotiated IAW proper procedures.
  632 Agreements (Department of State Funds)
  2-181. The Department of State (DOS) and the DOD may negotiate agreements in which the DOD agrees
  to fund requirements initially that are legally a DOS responsibility. These agreements are called 632
  Agreements. They are generally negotiated for a specific purpose with a specific amount of funds attached.
  Once these agreements are signed, they provide the legal authority for the DOD to incur obligations on a
  reimbursable basis for the purpose intended. The documentation is consolidated and sent to the DOS for
  reimbursement.
  2-182. Examples of the use of this agreement by the DOD and the reimbursement by the DOS include the
  paying of stipend payments to foreign military forces, providing support to foreign military forces not
  covered under 506 (a)(1) drawdown authority, funds to cover emergency medical evacuation of foreign
  Soldiers to U.S. medical treatment facilities, and providing special dietary requirements for foreign
  contingents.
  SPECIAL PROGRAM FUNDING
  2-183. These programs are designed to address specific areas that regular funding and appropriations may
  not cover. They are very specific in nature and their use is intended to have an immediate positive effect on
  the overall mission.
  Commander’s Emergency Response Program (CERP)
  2-184. Purpose. The current Commander’s Emergency Response Program (CERP) authority enables
  commanders specifically serving in Afghanistan to respond to urgent, small-scale, humanitarian relief and
  reconstruction requirements within their areas of responsibility. See the 2013 National Defense
  Authorization Act §1221 and the 2013 Consolidated and Further Continuing Appropriations Act §9005.
  2-185. Procedures. DODFMR Vol. 12, Ch. 27 provides implementing policy and guidance for the use of
  CERP. The guidance primarily assigns administration responsibilities, defines proper CERP projects, and
  specifies accountability procedures. This guidance is mandatory reading for anyone intending to use CERP
  funds.
  2-186. Examples. Examples of reconstruction assistance include FM improvements, restoration of the
  rule of law and governance initiatives, day laborers for civic cleaning projects, and purchase or repair of
  civic support vehicles.
  DOD Rewards Program
  2-187. Purpose. Title 10, U.S. Code, section 127b authorizes the DOD to pay rewards to persons for
  providing U.S. Government personnel or government personnel of multinational forces participating in a
  multinational operations with U.S. armed forces with information or assistance that is beneficial to: (1) an
  operation or activity of the armed forces or of multinational forces participating in a multinational
  operations with multinational forces conducted outside of the United States against international terrorism;
  or (2) personnel protection of the armed forces or multinational forces participating in a combined
  operation with U.S. armed forces. This authority is useful to encourage the local citizens of foreign
  countries to provide information and other assistance, including the delivery of dangerous personnel and
