Doctrine for Joint Littoral Operations

The Doctrine for Joint Littoral Operations refers to military strategies and practices designed for conducting operations in coastal areas, where land meets the sea. It emphasizes cooperation among different branches of the military—such as Army, Navy, and Air Force—using their unique strengths. The goal is to ensure effective control over these coastal zones, which are critical for defense, logistics, and humanitarian efforts. This doctrine considers various factors like geography, weather, and enemy capabilities to enhance mission success in complex environments where land and water interact.
