What to take from it
- Intelligence supports the commander's decisions; it is driven by the operation, not separate from it.
- The intelligence process is continuous: plan and direct, collect, produce, disseminate, with analysis throughout.
- Intelligence preparation of the operational environment is a staff product, not an intelligence-only product.
- Defines the intelligence warfighting function and its relationship to the other warfighting functions.
