Who should read this publication
This publication provides guidance that is applicable across all operations: in the homeland, undertaking persistent engagement and crisis response, as well as warfighting overseas. It is pertinent to be read by commanders and their staffs.
This JDP recognises that personnel support, although coordinated by the Joint Task Force Headquarters and normally carried out by the Joint Force Logistic Component or national support element, is largely delivered by the front line commands.
