Summary:[...]DoD has faced equal challenges in penetrating this evolving and teeming communication environment, especially in the post-11 September 2001 era. "6 Although the Marine Corps advocates the "process" in its SC definition, the Corps has recently expended great effort in analyzing and measuring the Corps' MCCs to (1) determine how they can best support the MAGTF,7 (2) provide Service-specific input to a joint SC capabilities-based assessment as required by the Secretary of Defense, and (3) determine how best to incorporate these MCCs into its various MAGTF operational planning teams (OPTs) throughout the Marine Corps Planning Process (MCPP).8 Moreover, to enhance the discourse on Marine Corps SC considerations, the third edition of the Marine Corps Operating Concepts (MOC) included a robust examination of SC-related challenges the MAGTF will face in the future,9 noting that recent DoD publications on SC "have added clarification but have stopped short of spelling out exactly how, when, and by whom SC is performed.
