Marine Corps Combat Development Command

Quantico, VA
X Files- Major Product of the Synthesis Center
The Synthesis Center supports the command as a whole. Its specified tasks are:

Gather, organize and synthesize knowledge gained from MCWL experimentation to produce topically focused booklets called X-Files that clearly describe Tactics, Techniques, Procedures & Technology (TTPs) enablers that can help Marines to more effectively fight and win battles.

Ensure each X-File has the following characteristics relating to form and content:

  • Clear description of successful experimental TTPs
  • Identify TTPs to avoid or to not use at all
  • Identify “what to do” and describe “how to do it”
  • Use graphics to amplify text; not the other way around
  • Not-to-exceed 50 pages
  • Not-to-exceed 11 years of education on the Flesch-Kinkaid (F-K) readability scale

When directed, publish detailed After Action Reports (AARs) and other documentation necessary to get the right knowledge to the right people at the right time

Where applicable, prepare appropriate documentation of knowledge gained from experiments for input into the EFDS
