During operations to prevent, the theater army can provide the GCC with a deployable command post (CP) for contingencies that develop in the AOR. The GCC may use the theater army contingency CP as the nucleus of a small JTF headquarters. The contingency CP receives additional personnel based upon a joint manning document or individual augmentation requests for Army and other Service personnel to accomplish the mission. The contingency CP is a viable option for short notice and limited duration operations because of its established internal staff working relationship and experience base in the AO. This selection capitalizes on the contingency CP’s flexibility and rapid deployment.
