Marine Corps Operations (MCDP 1-0)

Marine Corps Operations (MCDP 1-0) is a foundational doctrinal publication of the U.S. Marine Corps, focusing on the application of maneuver warfare across the entire range of military operations. First released in 2001, it covers how the Marine Corps organizes, deploys, and sustains its forces, particularly through the use of the Marine Air-Ground Task Force (MAGTF). It emphasizes the operational and tactical roles Marines play in both conventional warfare and military operations other than war (MOOTW). The document serves as a bridge between philosophical discussions of warfare and practical applications in real-world operations​
