	LOGISTICS ON THE HOOF:
		Operation Joint Endeavor presented a significant motor transport challenge to the transporters of the 3d Corps Support Command (COSCOM) and the 21st Theater Army Area Command (TAACOM) (Forward).
		When it was notified that it was to take part in Operation Joint Endeavor, the battalion had to rush to complete the fielding and finish driver training on the new equipment.
		Such a bold move, born of the haste of the operation, was an innovative solution to the problem of establishing support along an immature LOC.

	Operation JOINT ENDEAVOR: Combined-Joint Intelligence in Peace Enforcement Operations
		When faced with the dual challenge of operating in a foreign language (English) and operating complicated technical systems for which they had little background, some personnel were clearly in over their heads.
		Initially, while Operation JOINT ENDEAVOR should have been a come-as-you-are peacekeeping operation, based on the organic expertise, assets, and capability within NATO, it was obvious that HQ IFOR could not have operated day in and day out without heavy, extensive augmentation.
		Finally, intelligence operations during Operation JOINT ENDEAVOR have been frustrating since the military aspects of the General Framework Agreement for Peace (GFAP) have been so tremendously successful in part due to outstanding intelligence and operations efforts by all of the IFOR participants.

	Transcript : Background Briefing : DOD : Subject: Intelligence Support to Operation JOINT ENDEAVOR
		So, U.S. military intelligence and civilian intelligence agencies and support of military operations are acting together as a team to support not only a U.S. force deployment in Bosnia but also our allies and associates in the IFOR endeavor.
		Their job is to gather that all important information on the intent of all the people around the area where we have forces deployed.
		That if a terrorist individual were discovered in a planning phase of an operation and we were able to gather information about the plan, we would alert the force to the plan and we'd try to interdict the operation if we believed it was underway, obviously.

	Operation JOINT ENDEAVOR: Logistics Supporting the GSM Task Force
		The deployment of the GSMs in support of Operation JOINT ENDEAVOR presented a unique challenge because it did not consist of a direct or general support intelligence and electronic warfare (IEW) team assigned to a division or corps.
		The ability of all the elements to deploy rapidly was due in part to planning meetings conducted at Fort Hood with representatives from each of the elements and units deploying as TF Rotkoff.
		Given the essential task of conducting operations for up to 179 days, all teams were reinforced with an air conditioning and generator mechanic (MOS 52D), an IEW repairman (MOS 33T), and a Motorola technician.

		However, as Operation Joint Endeavor transitioned from the deployment phase to the sustainment phase, so did the rations transition from T rations to A rations.
		On average, Operation Joint Endeavor documentation requirements were five to ten times greater than those associated with "normal" depot shipments.

		Because peace operations are expected to be part of the strategic landscape for the foreseeable future, consider adding peace operations tasks to the METLs of a mix of light and heavy divisions and their subordinate units.
		Operations suffer when there is a lack of strategic planning structure with a designated person or organization tasked with responsibility for developing a political-military strategic concept contained in a Political-Military Planning document.
		Additionally, the operational commander is squeezed between tactical necessity to accomplish his mission safely and the strategic possibility for catastrophe (a la the Mogadishu fire fight).

	Chapter 1
		Contingency or crisis response operations were not traditionally permitted to be included in the Army's budget; hence, the Army had to pay for this massive relocation of troops, supplies, and equipment out of its Operation and Maintenance, Army (OMA), account.
		In the aftermath of the Cold War, the Army in FY 96 moved forward in redesigning its operational forces to meet the requirements of Force XXI—the vision of an Army that exploits information technology, particularly for weapons systems, and is capability based rather than focused on identifiable threats or stuck in the industrial age.
		The Army's ability to deploy thousands of troops to Bosnia for Operation JOINT ENDEAVOR and to sustain them for months signified that Army soldiers and equipment, in active and reserve components, were trained and ready.

	Military Medicine: Physical therapy in a peacekeeping operation: Operation Joint Endeavor/Operation Joint Guard
		This new mission was titled Operation Joint Guard (OJG).6 Since the redeployment of the 21st CSH in April 1997, physical therapy services have been included in all health service support planning and deployment.
		The physical therapy mission during a deployment is to "prevent as well as evaluate and treat neuromusculoskeletal conditions as physician extenders."7 The main role of physical therapy in Bosnia was to provide primary care for all nontraumatic musculoskeletal injuries, enabling soldiers to be evaluated and treated promptly.
		During mass casualty (MASCAL) situations, the physical therapist's role was 2-fold: (1) to evaluate and treat closed musculoskeletal injuries that were sent to minimal and delayed care areas, and (2) to serve as the orthopedic triage officer while the orthopedic surgeon was treating or operating on the most significant orthopedic injuries.
