Supervisor: Matt Egan
Salary: $44K
Duties: Served on a Tactical Psychological Operations Team as both
Assistant Team Leader and Team Leader in support of combat and
counterinsurgency operations vicinity southeastern Baghdad and Samarra.
Planned, executed and reported on operations in combat environment where
the team engaged in the collection and analysis of data from the Iraqi
local population, both civilian and military. Conducted surveys,
interviews, and group discussions with Iraqi population in order to gather
information about their attitudes and perception regarding security,
economic, political, and social issues. Conducted this research in support
of Battalion commander in order to provide a clear picture of the attitudes
and perceptions of local nationals in the Commander's area of operations.
Briefed the Battalion Commander and his staff daily on these findings
during targeting and operations planning meetings.
By analyzing data, we were able to identify common grievances and to
cultivate messages and lines of persuasion to influence the Iraqi
population, to increase support for U.S. and Iraqi objectives in the local
community, thus denying the enemy the initiative in Information
Operations/propaganda. This work allowed US forces to better understand the
local attitudes and reduce tensions in the area. This population analysis
included identifying local leaders and local complaints and allowed the
Combatant commander to exploit and apply available resources to specific
local problems.
Well versed in the use of counterinsurgency doctrine (COIN). Daily
engagement in face-to-face communication with Iraqi population led to
accurate and up to date human terrain intelligence in the area of
operations. Constructed daily written reports and PowerPoint
presentations for the combatant commander.
Extensive work with local Iraqi interpreters allowed the team to build
rapport and trust with the Iraqi population, and aided in accuracy of
information. Surveys and interviews of local population during and after
combat operations allowed human terrain feedback and aided in understanding
the civilian population point of view about operations and the probable
effects of US and Iraqi actions on them. This allowed the ground commander
to exploit the effects of operations by tailoring messages encouraging
unity and rejection of militia ideology to deny enemy influence to the
area.
Combat and COIN missions conducted regularly in volatile in and around
Samarra. Daily dealing with ethnic tensions, militia activity, and enemy
contact. Integrated successfully with Battalion staff, Company Commanders,
