The MCMWTC requires a SOF SME to support the MCMWTC exercises and collaboration for program development. The SOF Instructor will assist the MCMWTC in the training and instruction of SOF personnel and units, the development of SOF-specific instructional materials, selection and development of training sites, and act as an observer-controller during the Final Exercise portion of the MTX.

SOF-CF I3 enhances the ability of the USMC CF to transition from counterinsurgency to a broader focus of post-OEF operational capabilities. Deploying USMC MAGTFs interact with SOF and their command and control (C2) systems. The unique compartmentalized terrain in mountainous environments and the challenges of conducting and sustaining combat operations in those environments forces SOF and CF sharing that battlespace closer than in most other combat environments. SOF participating in MTX learn and reinforce their mountain and cold weather warfare skills, develop and refine unit TTPs and work SOF-CF I3 problem sets during the course of the exercise.

The SOF Instructor will also assist the SOF Horsemanship instructor cadre in the development, instruction, and conduct of the SOF Horsemanship Course. The contractor will support MCMWTC through development of curricula and media, exercise design and execution, creation of POI for new courses, participation in Course Content Review Boards (CCRB), and implementing instruction through primary locations. This effort is critical to provide advanced and standardized training in Marine Air Ground Task Force (MAGTF) Operations and Combined Arms Training at the Battalion level.

Additionally, MCMWTC requires SME support for the examining lessons learned, supporting experimentation, analyzing emerging concepts, incorporating best practices, and advocating for rapid and appropriate institutional solutions to be applied across the service, joint and SOF communities.  Curriculum and training support products include, but are not limited to: IO and SOF support producing products and instruction that are aligned with USMC, US Army, and Joint doctrines promulgated by the Marine Corps Information Operations Center, Marine Corps Forces, Cyberspace Command, US Special Operations Command, and the US Army Training and Doctrine Command respectively.
