The Library includes publications from within the navy Doctrine Hierarchy and applicable al-lied/multiservice/multinational publications. NTTP 1-01, The navy Warfare Library , defines the organization andprocedures governing naval doctrine publications (NDPs); navy Warfare publications (NWPs); navy tactics, tech-niques, and procedures (NTTPs); navy tactical reference publications (NTRPs); fleet exercise publications(FXPs); and tactical memoranda (TACMEMOs). It defines relationships among commands and programs in-volved in tactics development, assigns responsibilities for developing and maintaining tactical and doctrinal publi-cations, and contains guidance for maintaining the NWL.

9 Where applicable, NTTP 1-01 addresses procedurespertaining to multiservice publications; Allied publications (APs); multinational publications (MPs); joint publica-tions (JPs); and the navy Lessons Learned System (NLLS) used by navy DOCTRINE, TACTICS, TECHNIQUES, PROCEDURES, AND RELATED DoctrineJoint Publication 1-02, DOD Dictionary of Military and Associated Terms, defines doctrine as the fundamentalprinciples by which the military forces or elements thereof guide their actions in support of national objectives. Itis authoritative but requires judgment in application. Within the NWL, doctrine refers to overarching guidancethat allows collections of navy units to operate effectively as a navy force. Doctrine therefore refers to both fun-damental principles and operational-level guidance. This operational-level doctrine is distinct from the tactics,techniques, and procedures (TTP) used to guide the specific operation of platforms and systems.

10 Doctrine is is-sued in top-level JPs, NDPs, and doctrine forms a bridge between the naval component of our nation s military strategy and our TTP. A com-mander, however, cannot operate solely under the guidance of broad strategy. Neither can the commander makeappropriate mission decisions if guided only by TTP. Doctrine guides our actions toward well-defined goals andprovides the basis for mutual understanding within and among the Services and the national policymakers. It en-sures our familiarity and efficiency in the execution of procedures and Naval Doctrine PublicationsNDPs describe the role of naval forces, outline their basic warfighting philosophy, and disseminate operational-levelprinciples for employment. NDPs are the highest level of navy doctrine (see Figure 1-1). They serve as thecapstone and keystone publications of the NWL by linking the navy s overarching military strategy to are five NDPs:1.
