'''Distributed Operations''' (DO) is a war-fighting concept drafted by the [[United States Marine Corps]] and developed primarily by their [[United States Marine Corps Warfighting Laboratory|Warfighting Laboratory]] as a response to the changing environment of the [[War on Terrorism|Global War on Terror]]. Adaptive enemies and a more complex environment were seen as requiring conventional forces to maintain the ability to decentralize decision making and distribute their forces. The overarching goal of DO is to maximize a [[Marine Air Ground Task Force]] commander's ability to employ tactical units across the depth and breadth of a non-linear battlespace.<ref>{{cite web|last1=Schmidle|first1=Robert E.|title=Distributed Operations: From The Sea|url=https://www.mca-marines.org/leatherneck/distributed-operations-sea|website=www.mca-marines.org|accessdate=2 August 2014}}</ref>
