The United States is involved in a deadly and extraordinarily high stakes global war on terrorism (GWOT) and its soldiers and marines are fighting with the ruthless, adaptive and fanatical enemies in the mountains of Afghanistan, Iraq and there are signs that this war may go on for many years. The only way to win GWOT is by using distributed operations concept that seeks to maximize the Marine air-ground task force (MAGTF) commander's ability to employ tactical units across the battle space to achieve favorable intelligence-driven engagements.
