Service and Support elements, and Military PoLice are daily being asked not just to do the jobs they
were trained for, but to radically create new methods and methodologies that are needed to complete
this mission in defense of our nation. Reserve and Active components of all service branches are
working this mission, along with numerous civilian and federal law enforcement a encies. This is a
unique oppormnity to work with other agencies, to enhance your b)(2) (cid:9) and most
importantly, to serve in defense of your country. There is much you wi (cid:9) --. to o which is not
in any of your prior training. There are legal, political, strategic and moral issues that influence and
affect how operations are conducted in this vital part of Operation Enduring Freedom. You must be
aware that your activities and actions are often directed by or reported to the highest levels of
govenunent. Also, agencies such as the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), foreign
delegations, and the world media keenly watch how this operation is conducted and how 0)(2)
are handled. It is vital to JTF-GTMO that all Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen, Marines and Civilians
conduct themselves in a manner that reflects well on the legal principles America is founded upon.

!CODE OF CONDUCT
1. Treat detainees humanely.
a. President Bush determined that the Geneva Conventions do not apply to members of al Qaida or
the Taliban and that they are not prisoners of war but are unlawful combatants.
b. President Bush does require the Department of Defense to treat detainees humanely, and, to the
extent appropriate-and consistent with military necessity, in a manner consistent with the Geneva
Conventions (POTUS memorandum (C), 7 February 2002, Subj: Humane Treatment of al Qaeda and
Taliban detainees).
c. Humane treatment consists of providing detainees adequate food, drinking water, clothing,
shelter, medical treatment, and the free exercise of religion consistent with the requirements of
detention. President's Military Order (U), 13 November 2001.
d. Humane treatment during b)(2) 'operations means no severe physical or mental pain or
suffering.

A. (U) Time Sensitive Collection Requirement (TSCR). A TSCR is a short-teitn requirement to
support crisis or contingency planning arid operations such as military deployment. The
consumer activates a TSCR when he or she requires collection and initial reporting within 48
hours. During contingency operations, periods of heightened tensions, or open hostilities, the
TSCR is the primary HUMINT requirement that a Unified Command or Joint Task Force (JTF)
uses to task time-critical, high priority information needs directly to DoD HUMINT collectors in
the primary corrunand's area of responsibility (AOR). A theater corrunander can also use it to
request tasking of collectors globally to focus on that Unified Commander's needs. During
contingency operations or crisis _situationc thear,er commands may directly task in-theater
