<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Which division? What is your BCT built to do? I was a Planner at an ABCT and since they&#39;re built to conduct Joint Forcible Entry, my IO Officer and I built that plan around that. <br /><br />Understand your operational environment and figure out how your commander wants to do business. You&#39;re his SME on all Information Related Capes (IRCs), since, if I&#39;m not mistaken, FA30 IO Officers are no longer on the BCT MTOE. <br /><br />Work from the tactical to the operational: if you were a TMT Chief attached to one of your battalions with no guidance from higher, how would you support that battalion&#39;s operations? Answer that question and then build your SOP and all subsequent Annexes to suit, while also giving that TMT Chief the lattitude to do tactical PSYOP. Give some thought to the types of support you&#39;d need as a TMT assigned to an infantry battalion.<br /><br />Last, but also critically important, conduct training for Company level leaders so they know what we bring and what we can do, and how we can positively affect their missions. It is SO vital that Company Commanders and PLs know who you are, but even more importantly, what their PSYOP support will look like, what it can and cannot do.<br /><br />Your key task is to ensure that your BCT Commander knows what we can do, and your PSYOP support element knows the Commander&#39;s intent and guidance.
