Allied Joint Doctrine for
Non-combatant Evacuation Operations
Allied Joint Publication-3.4.2 (AJP-3.4.2), dated May 2013,
is promulgated in the United Kingdom in accordance with the UK national comment.

I Edition A, Version1
AJP-3.4.2
UK national comment
1. Allied Joint Publication (AJP)-3.4.2 (Edition A, Version 1) Allied Joint Doctrine for Non-
combatant Evacuation Operations provides Allied joint doctrine for planning and
conducting non-combatant evacuation operations (NEOs) throughout the range of military
operations.
2. Non-combatant evacuation operations are non-discretionary operations often requiring
a national response. Differing interests and risk thresholds often result in countries
responding to crisis in different ways. Although evacuations are likely to be conducted in a
multinational setting, the interaction between nations will probably be limited to
coordinating separate national plans rather than a unified multinational endeavour.
However, commanders and their staff should read this publication along with our Joint
Doctrine Publication (JDP) 3.51, Non-combatant Evacuation Operations (UK national
doctrine) to understand the challenges of operating as part of a coalition when conducting
a multinational evacuation.
3. We (UK) will use JDP 3.51 for non-combatant evacuation operations. This complies
with AJP-3.4.2.

GBR GBR will use national doctrine for NEO (JDP 3.51), which is compliant with AJP-
3.4.2. JDP 3.51 refers to AJP-3.4.2 for alliance-led NEO activities, but provides
essential, amplification for national NEO activities.
