Module 2 – SLP
THE MILITARY PARTNERSHIPS
The Military Partnerships: Humanitarian/Support Role
The role of the Department of Defense (DoD) is outlined in
certain directives. Its function is specific to natural disasters (e.g.,
hurricanes, floods, and tornadoes) and to man-made disasters (e.g., major toxic
spill or terrorist attack). Knowing the DoD’s role in your ERP and as outlined
in a Concept of Operations Plan is essential. Moreover, knowing how the DoD
will interface with other support sectors will lessen any confusion when a
disaster occurs.
Find language regarding military involvement in the NRF.
Especially note the command structure. Would the National Guard (if deemed
necessary) be called out first? By whom? When would the Guard be called
out—give examples. When would a military branch (e.g., the Army) be called out?
Remember to cite your sources.
Locate other directives regarding the military’s possible
involvement during a national emergency. Under what conditions would the armed
services be involved? What would be some of their functions? Remember to cite
your sources.
