Book Description
The Commander's Handbook on the Law of Naval Operations August 2017 Edition NWP 1-14M MCTP 11-10B COMDTPUB P5800.7ASCOPEThis publication, The Commander's Handbook on the Law of Naval Operations August 2017 Edition, sets out those fundamental principles of international and domestic law that govern U.S. naval operations at sea. Chapters 1 through 4 relate to peacetime naval operations. They provide an overview and general discussion of the law of the sea, including definitions and descriptions of the jurisdiction and sovereignty exercised by States over various parts of the world's oceans; the international legal status and navigational rights of warships and military aircraft; protection of persons and property at sea; and the safeguarding of national interests in the maritime environment. Chapters 5 through 12 relate to naval warfare. They set out principles of law of special concern to the naval commander during any period in which U.S. naval forces are engaged in armed conflict. Although the primary emphasis of these chapters is on the conduct of naval warfare, relevant principles and concepts common to the whole of the law of war are also discussed.PURPOSEThis publication is intended for the use of operational commanders and supporting staff elements at all levels of command. It is designed to provide officers in command and their staffs with an overview of the rules of law governing naval operations in peacetime and during armed conflict. The explanations and descriptions in this publication are intended to enable the naval commander and his staff to comprehend more fully the legal foundations upon which the orders issued to them by higher authority are premised, and to understand better the commander's responsibilities under international and domestic law to execute his mission within that law. This publication sets forth general guidance. It is not a comprehensive treatment of the law nor is it a substitute for the definitive legal guidance provided by judge advocates and others responsible for advising commanders on the law. Officers in command of operational units are encouraged to utilize this publication as a training aid for assigned personnel.This publication provides general information and guidance. It is not directive, and does not supersede guidance issued by the chain of command.INTERNATIONAL LAWFor purposes of this publication, international law is defined as that body of rules that States consider binding in their relations with one another. International law is created by States. It derives from the practice of States in the international arena and from international agreements between States. International law provides stability in international relations and an expectation that certain acts or omissions will result in predictable consequences. If one State violates the law, it may expect that others will reciprocate. Consequently, failure to comply with international law ordinarily involves greater political and economic costs than does observance. In short, States comply with international law because it is in their interest to do so. Like most rules of conduct, international law is in a continual state of development and change. This publication seeks to accurately describe the state of international law on the date of the publication's issuance.Practice of StatesThe general and consistent practice among States with respect to a particular subject, which over time is accepted by them generally as a legal obligation, is known as customary international law. Customary international law is the principal source of international law and is binding upon all States.

Book Description
This publication, Field Manual FM 6-27 MCTP 11-10C The Commander's Handbook on the Law of Land Warfare August 2019, provides guidance to Soldiers and Marines on the doctrine and practice related to customary and treaty law applicable to the conduct of warfare on land and to relationships between opposing belligerents, in order to train and prepare for combat operations. Although some of the legal principles set forth herein also apply to warfare at sea and in the air, this publication otherwise concerns itself with the rules peculiar to naval and aerial warfare only to the extent that such rules have some direct bearing on the activities of Soldiers and Marines operating on land.Commanders, staffs, and subordinates must ensure that their decisions and actions comply with applicable U.S., international, and in some cases host-nation laws and regulations. Commanders at all levels will ensure that their Soldiers or Marines operate in accordance with the law of armed conflict (LOAC) and applicable rules of engagement. This is an official publication of the U.S. Army and a referenced publication for the U.S. Marine Corps. The principal audience for this publication is Army and Marine Corps commanders as well as Army and Marine Corps judge advocates. Commanders and staffs of Army and Marine Corps headquarters serving as joint task force or multinational headquarters should also refer to applicable joint or multinational doctrine. Trainers and educators throughout the Army and Marine Corps will also use this publication where appropriate. This publication often describes legal concepts in general terms for non-lawyers rather than exhaustively.
