Initially, this research was undertaken to support military training conducted at the Joint Readiness Training Center JRTC and the National Training Center NTC. It also suggests modifications to the traditional intelligence preparation of the battlefield IPB and the military decisionmaking process MDMP to address the analytical difficulties posed by the conduct of military operations within and among different cultures. It provides a method for helping military commanders, staffs, and trainers engage successfully in any type of operation with an emphasis on postconflict stability operations. This document defines a way US military leaders can prepare for and conduct military operations through the lens of cultural awareness. As indicated by recent experiences in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Somalia, understanding Islamic cultures is particularly important. Cultural understanding is necessary both to defeat adversaries and to work successfully with allies. In the current security environment, understanding foreign cultures and societies has become a national priority. Abstract: Conducting the Global War on Terrorism GWOT and projecting United States US influence worldwide has meant an increasing number of US diplomats and military forces are assigned to locations around the world, some of which have not previously had a significant US presence.
