As Amended Through 17 October 2007
PREFACE
1. Scope
The
Department of Defense Dictionary of Military and Associated Terms
(short title:
Joint Pub 1-02 or JP 1-02) sets forth standard US military and associated terminology to encompass
the joint activity of the Armed Forces of the United States in both US joint and allied joint
operations, as well as to encompass the Department of Defense (DOD) as a whole. These
military and associated terms, together with their definitions, constitute approved DOD
terminology for general use by all components of the Department of Defense. The Secretary of
Defense, by DOD Directive 5025.12, 23 August 1989,
Standardization of Military and Associated
Terminology
, has directed the use of JP 1-02 throughout the Department of Defense to ensure
standardization of military and associated terminology.
2. Purpose
This publication supplements standard English-language dictionaries with standard
terminology for military and associated use. However, it is not the intent of this publication to
restrict the authority of the joint force commander (JFC) from organizing the force and executing
the mission in a manner the JFC deems most appropriate to ensure unity of effort in the
accomplishment of the overall mission.
3. Application — DOD and NATO Activities
JP 1-02 is promulgated for mandatory use by the Office of the Secretary of Defense, Military
Departments, Joint Staff, combatant commands, Defense agencies, and any other DOD
components. DOD terminology herein is to be used without alteration unless a distinctly different
context or application is intended. To provide a common interpretation of terminology at home
and abroad, US officials, when participating in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO)
or dealing with NATO matters, will use NATO terminology. When a NATO standard for a term
or definition does not exist, applicable DOD terminology (if any) may be used.
Note concerning DOD-NATO Standardization:
The United States is a signatory to NATO
Standardization Agreement (STANAG) 3680, which ratifies the
NATO Glossary of Terms
and Definitions (English and French)
(short title: AAP-6). Under the provisions of STANAG
3680, AAP-6 is established as the primary glossary for NATO. The United States carries out its
obligation to implement STANAG 3680 in the following manner: (a) English-language entries
approved for AAP-6 may be proposed by DOD elements for inclusion in JP 1-02 as DOD-
NATO entries. The purpose of such proposals is to increase multinational standardization.
After DOD-wide staffing by the US NATO Military Terminology Group (USNMTG),
terminology so approved for inclusion in JP 1-02 and DOD-wide use will appear, along with
DOD-only entries, in JP 1-02 with an asterisk in parentheses after the term to denote DOD-
NATO standardization of terminology, referred to as “alignment” in NATO. (b) As stated in
paragraph 3, US officials will adhere to NATO terminology when engaged in NATO matters,
JP 1-02

provided that applicable terminology exists. (c) An electronic copy of AAP-6 is provided under
“Other Publications” at the internet address cited in paragraph 7.
4. Criteria for Terms
The following criteria are used to determine the acceptability of terminology for inclusion
in JP 1-02:
a. Inadequate coverage in a standard, commonly accepted dictionary, e.g., by Merriam-
Webster.
b. Terminology should be of general military or associated significance. Technical or
highly specialized terms may be included if they can be defined in easily understood language
and if their inclusion is of general military or associated significance.
c. Terms for weaponry are limited to generic weapon systems.
d. Unless there are special reasons to the contrary, terms and definitions are not to consist
of or contain abbreviations or other shortened forms, e.g., acronyms.
e. Only UNCLASSIFIED terminology will be included.
f. Dictionary entries will not be provided for prowords, code words, brevity words, or
NATO-only terms.
g. Dictionary entries will not be Service-specific or functionality-specific unless they are
commonly employed by US joint forces as a whole.
h. Dictionary entries will not consist of components or sub-components contained in
missiles, aircraft, equipment, weapons, etc.
5. Other DOD Dictionaries
Other dictionaries or glossaries for DOD use will be published ONLY AFTER coordination
with the USNMTG and approval by the Director for Operational Plans and Joint Force
Development (J-7), Joint Staff.
6. Publication Format
This edition of JP 1-02 has been published in two basic parts:
a.
Main Body.
This part of the dictionary contains all terms and definitions approved for
use within the Department of Defense, to include those terms and definitions that are approved
for both DOD and NATO use. Each entry approved for both DOD and NATO appears with an
asterisk in parentheses, i.e., (*), after the term to denote DOD-NATO acceptance.

As Amended Through 17 October 2007
Preface
Note:
In rare instances, a term may have a combination of DOD-only definitions and DOD-
NATO definitions. In these instances, though an asterisk will appear after the term to denote
DOD-NATO standardization, DOD-only definitions will be preceded by “DOD only” in
parentheses.
b.
Appendix A.
Appendix A contains a listing of current abbreviations and acronyms in
common use within the Department of Defense. This is by no means a complete list of DOD
abbreviations and acronyms. Rather, it serves as a guide to current DOD usage in abbreviations
and acronyms.
7. JP 1-02 on the Internet
a. JP 1-02 is accessible on-line at the following internet address:
http://www.dtic.mil/doctrine/jel/doddict
and the following NIPRNET address:
https://jdeis.js.mil
where it is available in both electronic publication and searchable database formats.
b. As changes are approved for JP 1-02, they are added to the internet version, making the
internet version of JP 1-02 more up-to-date than any printed edition. The internet version thus
provides the latest changes worldwide between regular printed editions.
