The Navy for several years has carried out a variety of irregular warfare (IW) and counterterrorism (CT) activities, and has taken some steps in recent years to strengthen its ability to conduct such activities. Among the most readily visible of the Navys current IW operations are those being carried out by Navy sailors serving ashore in Iraq and Afghanistan. Many of the Navys contributions to IW operations around the world are made by Navy individual augmentees (IAs)individual Navy sailors assigned to various DOD operations. The Navy Expeditionary Combat Command (NECC) was established informally in October 2005 and formally on January 13, 2006. The creation of NECC consolidated and facilitated the expansion of a number of Navy organizations that have a role in IW operations.
