  1. Maneuver Enhancement Brigade (MEB) Integration/Capability Brief as of 26 Oct 11

  2. MEBs Mission X • The MEB is a mission tailored force that conducts support area, maneuver support, consequence management, and stability operations in order to assure the mobility, protection, and freedom of action of the supported Division or Corps. • Doctrine change created the requirement for mission command for the Area of Operation (AO) which was formerly “the Division Rear”. Current doctrine and future concepts assigns this AO to a MEB as an economy of force Mission Command which frees up BCTs to support the Division Commander in their traditional roles. • There are 21 MEBs in the force today: 2 AC, 16 NG and 3 USAR. • MEBs are normally assigned to, attached, or placed under the operational control (OPCON) of a division. However, they may be attached to or placed OPCON to a corps or theater army to serve in the theater army area of operations or joint security area.

  3. Past, Current and Future Ops • Past: Seven MEBs have completed successful deployments in support of OEF, KFOR and CBRNE Consequence Management Response Force (CCMRF) to date. • Current: Four MEBs are currently supporting OEF, OND, KFOR and Defense CBRNE Response Force (DCRF). • Future: Five MEBs are alerted to back-fill the current deployed MEBs.

  5. X X SUST Doctrine Evolution: Migration of “Rear Area” Doctrine change created the requirement for mission command for an Area of Operation (AO) which was “the Division Rear”. Current doctrine assigns this AO to a MEB “A support areais a specific surface area designated by the echelon commander to facilitate the positioning, employment, and protection of resources required to sustain, enable, and control tactical forces.” Army of Excellence Modular Force Division Rear CP Functions MEB and Sustainment Bdes Rear Area Ops and Base Security (Movement Protection) Infrastructure Development Terrain Management Combat Service Support Movement Coordination XX REAR
