The purpose of all psychological operations is to create in foreign groups the emotions, attitudes,
or behavior to support the achievement of national objectives. In this endeavor, PSYOP influences
policy, decisions, the ability to govern, the ability to command, the will to fight, the will to obey,
and the will to support.
Psychological operations can increase the relative combat power of friendly forces and adversely
affect the combat power of the enemy. This is accomplished, basically, by attacking the identified
weaknesses of the opposing forces through a planned and coordinated PSYOP campaign.
PSYOP field teams are placed in direct support (DS) of the maneuver elements and travel
with them to exploit opportunities as they arise. The forward teams provide a constant flow
of information to the PSYOP command element at the higher headquarters. The PSYOP unit
constantly updates the PSYOP estimate, keeps the commander informed of the
psychological impact of the operation, and makes recommendations for the conduct of
combat operations.
As the attack progresses, the bypassed, isolated enemy elements are targeted by the field
teams. The field teams use all available media to induce their surrender, thereby conserving
the combat resources of the attacking force.
Tactical deception plans are supported by using misleading sound effects and by
disseminating misinformation. During this time, PSYOP support can enable the maneuver
commander to concentrate his maneuver units while giving the appearance of maintaining
normal dispersion. Operations, such as the feint or ruse, are primarily psychological since
the intent is to confuse the enemy and have him react in a desired manner.
Planners, operators, and intelligence personnel require access to all available intelligence that
pertains to their mission and area of operations. Effective reporting channels are necessary to
ensure that the flow of information reaches the PSYOP unit on a timely, uninterrupted basis.
