  command and add a consistent, forward-deployed presence in a particular
  theater of operations. Theater MI brigade and group assets provide HUMINT
  support during contingency operations. These HCTs can support a JTF, an
  army combatant command, or any deployed element that requires
  augmentation.
  JOINT, COMBINED, AND DOD HUMINT ORGANIZATIONS
  3-23. The Departments of the Air Force and the Navy have limited HUMINT
  collection capability. They will normally provide strategic debriefing trained
  and certified personnel to joint interrogation and debriefing facilities
  primarily to collect information on areas of particular interest to that
  Military Department. Within the Department of the Navy, however, the US
  Marine Corps has a robust tactical HUMINT collection capability that
  operates primarily in support of engaged Marine Corps forces. Marine
  expeditionary elements deploy with human exploitation teams (HETs) that
  provide organic HUMINT and CI support to the deployed Marine force.
  Marine HETs are rapidly deployable and fully equipped to conduct the full
  range of tactical HUMINT and CI functions. They can provide support to
  either the deployed Marine force or as part of JTF HUMINT or CI teams.
  Each Marine Expeditionary Force (MEF) has organic HETs. HETs can also
  be attached to a Marine Air-Ground Task Force (MAGTF) for a particular
  operation.
  SUPPORT AGENCIES
  3-24. HUMINT agencies from DOD, national level intelligence agencies, and
  LEAs can support the battlefield commander. In a JTF, a national
  intelligence support team (NIST) works with the J2X to coordinate national
  level activities with JTF and component HUMINT and analytical assets.
  Sometimes liaison officers (LNOs) are assigned directly to the C/J/2X to
  facilitate collection activities.
  • Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA). The DIA is a DOD combat
  support (CS) agency and an important member of the United States
  Intelligence Community. With more than 7,000 military and civilian
  employees worldwide, DIA is a major producer and manager of foreign
  military intelligence. DIA provides military intelligence to warfighters,
  defense policymakers and force planners in DOD and the Intelligence
  Community in support of US military planning and operations and
  weapon systems acquisition.
  (cid:131) Defense HUMINT (DH) Service. The DH Service, a branch of the
  DIA, is the force provider for strategic HUMINT forces and
  capabilities. During operations, elements from DH form a
  partnership within the supported JTF headquarters J2X element for
  the coordination and deconfliction of HUMINT source-related
  collection activities. DH support to a joint force is outlined in the
  classified DIAM 58-11 and DIAM 58-12.
  • Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). The CIA supports US national
  security policy by providing accurate, evidence-based, comprehensive,
  and timely foreign intelligence related to national security. The CIA
