Joint Publication 3-04 (2022) — Information in Joint Operations
doctrineOccult & Esoteric
The 2022 rulebook that shows info-war is a permanent institution.
Who they are
The U.S. Department of Defense.
What they do
On 14 September 2022 it published Joint Publication 3-04, making 'information' a formal joint function of military operations.
How it works
By codifying the authorities and structures for operating in the information environment.
Why it matters
It proves the discipline behind MindWar never went away — but that continuity is about doctrine, not about who built your phone's scroll.
The engine's record — word for word
**In plain terms:** the current doctrine proving information warfare is a continuous, codified institution — not a 1980 curiosity. On 14 Sept 2022 the Department of Defense published Joint Publication 3-04, Information in Joint Operations, formally codifying the Information Joint Function and the authorities for operating in the information environment[1]. Engine placement: the institutional-continuity spine of the MindWar chain (PSYOP to MISO to PSYOP-restored to JP 3-04) — continuity of DISCIPLINE is documented across decades. Continuity to the commercial scroll's construction is a separate, undocumented question (see mindwar, the convergence brake). Held; name no holder.
