I think the Joint Doctrine definition is too abstract, however, is not necessarily meaningless. I would say in addition to portions of the current definition, it should state how the center of gravity (COG) applies at a specific level. The relative level of operation should provide clarity to what COG means at each level of targeting or planning.

Operating successfully in a JIIM environment is a core competency for a SFWO. SFODAs conduct missions outside the areas of named conflict; often the only military interaction that JIIM partners receive. It is imperative that a SFWO conducts himself appropriately during this interaction, and mentors his detachment members to perform successfully in the JIIM environment.
