Abstract
The expeditionary Marine Corps law enforcement battalions, plagued by manpower, structure, and relevancy issues could not adjust to the service’s increased emphasis on the information warfighting function leading to their divestment in accordance with force design. This deactivation presents challenges in maintaining necessary law enforcement capabilities within Marine Corps expeditionary operations. Meanwhile, the three-dimensional policing model comprised of intelligence-led policing, community-oriented policing, and problem-oriented policing has been utilized by law enforcement around the world and adopted by Marine Corps garrison military police with great success. This thesis aims to demonstrate how expeditionary military police structured around the three-dimensional policing model, not originally intended for a deployed environment, could add value to the information warfighting function and support various Marine Corps concepts of operation. Qualitative exploratory action research methodology is used to synthesize concepts and models for implementation in a formation and environment not originally intended for these models individually. By leveraging existing military police and information activities with a three-dimensional policing model approach, expeditionary military police can enhance the effectiveness of the Marine Expeditionary Force Information Groups across the conflict continuum.
