INTELLIGENCE IS THE PRODUCT RESULTING FROM THE COLELCTION,

EVALUATION, ANALYSIS, INTEGRATION & ITERPRETATION OF ALL AVAILABLE INFORMATION, WHICH CONCERNS A FOREIGN NATION, OR AN AREA OF OPERATION.
MILITARY INFORMATION MEANS ALL FACTS, DOCUMENTS, MATERIALS,

PHOTOGRAPH, DIAGRAM, MAPS & REPORTS OF OBSERVATION OF ANY KIND WHICH INCREASES OUR KNOWLEDGE OF A POSSIBLE OR ACTUAL ENEMY OR AREA OF OPERATIONS.
MILITARY INTELLIGENCE IS A KNOWLEDGE ACQUIRED THROGUH THE

COLLECTION, EVALUATION, & INTERPRETATION OF ALL INFORMATION CONCERNING A POSSIBLE OR ACTUAL ENEMY OR AREA OF OPERATIONS, INCLUDING THE WEATHER & TERRAIN.
COMBAT INTELLIGENCE IS THAT KNOWLEDGE OF THE ENEMY, WEATHER &

TERRAIN REQUIRED BY A COMDR IN PLANNING & CONDUCTING TACTICAL OPERATION. IT IS DEVELOPED DURING THE CONDUCT OF THE OPERATIONS MODIFICATION OF THE ORIGINAL OPERATION PLAN WHICH MAY BE APPRCIATED.
COUNTER INTELLIGENCE IS AN ASPECT WHICH COMPRISES CIVIL &

MILITARY MEASURES, INCLUDING THE COLLECTION, RPOCESSING & DISTRIBUTION OF INFORMATION, & EXECUTIVE ACTIONS, DESIGNED TO COUNTER ENEMY OR TO PREVENT SABOTAGE OR SUBVERSION ACTIVITIES.
INTELLIGENCE AXIOM ARE FACTS THAT REQUIRED NO DOUBT BECAUSE

THE TRUTHS OF THESE STATEMENTS ARE OBIOUS.
1. INTELLIGENCE IS CONTINUES.
ALL INTTELLIGENCE ACTIVITIES FOLLOW A FOUR (4) STAGE CYCLE: PLANING, COLLECTION, EVALUATION & DISSEMINATION. THE CYCLE IS CONTINOUOS & ALL STEPS ARE CARRIED OUT IN AN ORDERLY FASHION. WE CANNOT AFFORD TO HAVE UNSYSTEMATIC & INEFFICIENT OF INFORMATION. ANY LEAD MUS BE FOLLOWED VIGOROUSLY. CHECK THE RELIABILITY OF THE SOURCE TO VERIFY THE RAW OF INFORMATION. DO ANYTHING TO MAKE THAT INFORMATION AVAILABLE IS USEFUL FORM. 2. INTELLIGENCE OPERATIONS AND TACTICAL OPERATIONS ARE INTERDEPENDENT.
3. INTELLIGENCE MUST BE USEFUL. OTHERWISE, WHAT DO OPERATING TROOPS NEED IT FOR? IT FOCUS ON A CERTAIN INTELLIGENCE REQUIREMENT OF A COMDR OR HIS OPERATING TROOPS. THE INTELLIGENCE OPERATION IS NOT TERMINATED, UNTIL POSITIVE RESULTS COME OUT. 4. INTELLIGENCE MUST BE TIMELY. THE BEST INTELLIGENCE IS WORTHLESS IF IT DOES NOT REACH THE USER IN TIME FOR APPROPRIATE ACTION. THERE MUST ALWAYS BE AN EFFECTIVE SYSTEM OF DESSIMINATING INTELLIGENCE, AS THE TIMELESS OF EACH BIT OF INFORMATION MUST BE EXPLOITED. 5. INTELLIGENCE OPERATIONS MUST BE FLEXIBLE. INTELLIGENCE ACTIVITIES ARE ALWAYS BASED ON LOGICAL STEPS. STANDARD INTELLIGENCE PROCEDURES MAKE INTELLIGENCE OPERATIONS EFFECTIVE, BUT MUST NOT BE FOLLOWED BLINDLY. PROCEDURES CAN BE CHANGED TO MEET REQUIREMENTS.
A. AXIOM NR 1 INTELLIGENCE IS CRUCIAL TO INTERNAL SECURITY. B. AXIOM NR 2 INTELLIGENCE IS ESSENTIAL TO ALL TYPS OF OPNS. 1) INTERNAL DEFENSE OPERATIONS. 2) INTERNAL DEVELOPMENT OPERATIONS. 3) PSYCHOLOGICAL OPERATIONS. C. AXIOM NR 3 INTELLIGENCE IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF ALL GOVT AGENCIES. D. AXIOM NR 4 INTELLIGENCE OF THE GOVT MUST BE SUPERIOR TO THAT OF THE ENEMY.
IN THE STUDY OF INTEL CYCLE IT IS NOT IMPORTANT WHICH PHASES IS CONISDERED FIRST INFORMATION OF INTELLIGENCE CAN BE INSERTED IN ANY PHASES AS APPROPRIATE. THE INTEL CYCLE HAS NO BEGINNING AND NO END. ANY SEQUENCE WHICH LOGICALLY ORGANIZE THROUGH PROCESSES IS WORKABLE.
PLANNING
DISSEMINATION & USE
COLLECTION
PROCESSING
1. PLANNING OF THE COLLECTION EFFORT.

THE COMDR MUST MAKE CERTAIN THAT HE HAS NEEDS, WHEN HE NEEDS IT. HE IS CONTINUALLY WONDERING WHAT THE ENEMY IS DOING, THINKING, & PLANNING FOR THE FUTURE OPERATIONS, & ABOUT THE NATURE OF THE TERRAIN NOT UNDER HIS CONTROL.
5 STEPS IN COLLECTION EFFORTS

1) DETERMINATION OF INTELLIGENCE REQUIREMENTS. 2) DERTIMINATION OF INTELLIGENCE PRIORITIES. 3) DETERMINATION OF THOSE ENEMY ACTIVITIES OF CHARACTERISTICS OF THE AREA OF OPN WHICH WOULD INDICATE THE ANSWER TO THE INTEL REQUIREMETNS. 4) SELECTION OF COLLECTION AGENCIES TO BE EMPLOYED AND THE ISSUANCE OF THE NECESSARY ORDERS AND REQUEST FOR IFNORMATION. 5) SUPERVISING THE EXECUTION OF ORDER AND REQUEST.
2. COLLECTION OF INFORMATION.
COLLECTION IS THE SYSTEM EXPLOITATION OF SOURCES OF INFORMATION BY COLLECTION AGENCIES & THE DELIVERY OF THE INFORMATION OBTAINED TO THE PROPER INTELLIGENCE SECTION. INTEL OFFR MUST BE ENSURE OF A CONTINUOUS INPUT OF RELIABLE INFO CONCERNING THE DIPOSITION, STRENGTH, COMPOSITION & MOVEMENT OF THE HOSTILE FORCES, AS WELL AS INFO CONCERNING WEAHTER & TERRAIN. HE MUST USE EVRY MEANS OF HIS DISPOSAL TO GAIN INFO ON THE ENEMY FORCES WITHIN THE OF INTEREST WHICH MAY AFFACT THE PREPARATION & EXECUTION OF HIS PLANS. FAILURE TO EXPLOIT EVERY SOURCE OF INFORMATION MAY DENY IMPORTANT INFO OF HOSTILE CAPABILITIES, VULNERABILITIES & PROBALE COURSES OF ACTION. INTEL OFFR PRIMARY FUNCTION IS TO KEEP THE COMDR, STAFF, HIGHER & SUBORDINATE UNITS INFORMED OF THE ENEMY & THE AREAS OF OPERATIONS. SOURCE OF INFORMATION - ARE PERSONS, THINGS, OR ACTIONS FROM WHICH INFORMATION ABOUT THE ENEMY, WEATHER OR TERRRAIN IS DERIVED. COLLECTION AGENCY IS NAY PERSON, UNIT OR ACTIVITY THAT COLLECT AND/OR PROCESSES INFORMATION BY RESEARCH, SURVEILLANCE, INTERROGATION OR OTHER EXPLOITATION OF RESOURCES.
3. PROCESSING OF INFORMATION.
PROCESSING IS THE STEP WHICH INTEL IS CREATED FROM THE RAW MATERIAL OF INFO. IT CONSIST OF THREE (3) STEPS: 1) THE RECORDING OF INFO SO THAT IT CAN BE COMPARED WITH OTHER ITEMS ON HAND. 2) THE EVALUATION OF INFO OR ORDER TO DETERMINE ITS INTELLIGENCE VALUE. 3) THE INTERPRETATION OF THE INFO IN RELATION TO OTHER INFO & INTEL ON HAND IN ORDER TO DRAW CONCLUSIONS REGARDING ITS MEANING. IN A TACTICAL SITUATION THE COMDR WANTS INTEL, NOT JUST INFORMATION, WHICH TO BASE HIS DECISION OR PLANS. THE INTEL OFFR IS NOT PERFORMING HIS JOB IF HE MERELY PRESENTS HIS COMDR WITH A COMPILATION OF INFO WITHOUT DETERMINING ITS SIGNIFICANCE. EVALUATION INTEL OFFR MUST EXAMINE EACH ITEM OF INFORMATION AS SOON AS IT IS RECEIVED TO DETERMINE ITS INTEL VALUE. INTERPRETATION OF INFO CONSIST OF DETERMINING ITS SIGNIFICANCE WITH RESPECT TO OTHER INFO OR PREVIOUSLY COLLECTED & PROCESSED INTEL & FINALLY DRAWING CONCLUSIONS AS THE PROBABLE MEANING OF THE INFO. EVALUATION & INTERPRETATION TOGETHER ARE THE ESSENTIAL STEPS IN PROCESSING. KEEP IN MINE THAT THE COMDR WANTS INTEL & NOT MERELY A COMPILATION OF INFO.
4. DISSEMINATION AND USE OF INTELLIGENCE.

DISSEMINATION AND USE OF INTEL INTELLIGENCE IS THE END PRODUCT OF ALL INTEL ACTIVETIES. TO BE USED IT MUST BE DISSEMINATED TO THE COMDR, HIS STRAFF, AND OTHER WHO REQUIRE IT IN PROPER FORM & IN TIME SERVE THE PURPOSE. THE COMDR RECEIVED INTEL FROM INTEL OFFR IN THE FORM OF INTEL ESTIMATE. THE INTEL ESTIMATES GIVES THE COMDR THE BEST POSSIBLE PICTURE OF THE AREA OF OPERATION AND THE ENEMY WITHOUT IRRELEVANT DETAILS.
THE INTEL ESTIMATE BRINGS TOGETHER SIGNIFICANT ASPECT OF THE WEATHER, TERRAIN & THE ENEMY. IT ENUMERATES & DISCUSSES THE ENEMYS CAPABILITIES, HIS WEAKNESS AS WELLS AS HIS FAVORABLE QUALITIES & THEIR EFFECT ON OUR MISSION.
DISSEMINATION TO OTHER USER ARE ACCOMPLISHED BY MEANS OF RADIO MESSAGE, MESSENGER, OR BY ANY RAPID MEANS OF SIGNAL COMMUNICATION & PERSONAL CONTACT (TELEPHONE, PERSONAL REPORTS, INTEGRATING REPORT, OPERATING ORDERS, & OTHER SPECIAL REPORTS.
