Book excerpt: Navy Tactics Techniques and Procedures NTTP 3-02.3M MCWP 3-32 MARITIME PREPOSITIONING FORCE OPERATIONS OCTOBER 2011 A maritime prepositioning force (MPF) operation is the rapid deployment and assembly of a Marine air-ground task force (MAGTF) in a secure area using intertheater airlift and forward-deployed maritime prepositioning ships. An MPF operation is a mission-tailored, strategic deployment option that is global in nature, naval in character, and suitable for various employment scenarios. Maritime prepositioning provides a combatant commander with deployment flexibility and an increased capability to respond rapidly to a crisis or contingency with a credible force. The essential purpose of an MPF operation is to establish a MAGTF that is fully prepared to execute an employment mission. Marine Corps Warfighting Publication (MCWP) 3-32/Navy Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures (NTTP) 3-02.3M, Maritime Prepositioning Force Operations, provides doctrine, tactics, techniques, and procedures to plan and execute an MPF operation. It is intended for Marine Corps and Navy commanders, their staffs, and other Service commanders and staffs. This publication supersedes MCWP 3-32/NTTP 3-02.3M, Maritime Prepositioning Force Operations, dated February 2004.
