A. 1. Defense Attache Office
A. 2. Office of Defense Cooperation
A. 3. DoD personnel detailed to other USG departments or
agencies.
Defense threat reduction agency personnel
A. 4. Other DoD elements and personnel in Azerbaijan to

responsibility.
None identified at this time
A. 5. DoD TDY elements and personnel assigned in support of
an element under COM authority, whose country clearance and
deployment TDY orders specify the COM as responsible for
security.
B. Annex B - DOD elements and personnel under the security
responsibility of the Combatant Commander.
B. 1. Commander USEUCOM Assigned DoD Elements and Personnel:
None identified at this time.
B. 2. Non Commander USEUCOM - Assigned Forces:
None identified at this time
B. 3. Other Commander USEUCOM assigned DoD elements and
personnel, who may be involved in recurring deployments and
possess an adequate organic force protection capability, to
include:
Joint Combined Exercise Teams (JCET)
B. 4. DoD elements and personnel in Azerbaijan for the
purpose of performing duties as part of Significant Military
Exercises (SME) and/or military operations directed by the
President of the United States, the Secretary of Defense, or
Commander USEUCOM, such as Joint Task Forces (JTF). Orders
directing such missions will specify force protection
responsibility.
B. 5. Other DoD temporary duty (TDY) elements and personnel

End MOA Text
--------------
3. (U) Per Ref A action request 2, Annex A has been reviewed
and Post judges that all listed DoD elements are fully
covered under Post's security program.
4. (U) HQ USEUCOM directorates, subordinate components
commands, and DoD agencies are reminded to immediately notify
HQ USEUCOM/EPOC and the USDR of any planned or projected
introduction or removal of DoD elements from any country or
region in the USEUCOM AOR. Upon notification of a planned
new element, EPOC and the USDR will initiate the process of
determining force protection (aka. security) responsibility
(COM or commander, USEUCOM). Similarly, EPOC and the USDR
will amend annexes A and B if required. National security
decision directive (NSDD) 38 requires all agencies with staff
operating under the authority of COM to ensure that, in
coordination with DOS, the COM's approval is sought on any
proposed changes in size, composition, or mandate of such
staff elements. This requires DoD to formally notify the COM
and DOS prior to the introduction of new DoD elements or
increase in the size of elements if the COM has or will have
security responsibility for such elements.
5. (U) IAW USEUCOM OPORD 03-11 (antiterrorism) commanders at
all levels are responsible for force protection of units,
activities, and facilities under their command to include
those designated by CDRUSEUCOM-COM MOA as falling under the
security responsibility of the commander. These
responsibilities and relationships will be detailed in the
CDRUSEUCOM-COM MOA and the accompanying matrix, which shows
at lines of responsibility. These documents are available on
the USEUCOM force protection homepage and serve as the formal
delegation of tactical command for force protection from
CDRUSEUCOM to subordinate commanders. Further delegation to
establish a clear line of responsibility through the chain of
command to the installation/unit level will be accomplished
by component commanders and their subordinates, as
appropriate.
