Editing Forward Operations Doctrine (Laeral)

'''Forward Operations''' or the '''Forward Operations Doctrine''' was a [[Laeral|Laeralian]] military and political doctrine calling for covert material support for ideologically-aligned militant groups abroad where such support would hinder a major threat to Laeralian security. Initiated in 1949 under President [[Sun Jia-wei]] to describe his principle of support for anti-regime militant groups in southern [[High Fells]] amidst the [[Accession of Lienne|Accession of Lienne (Second Fellsian War)]], the doctrine was revitalized in 1957 under Sun's premiership, and would continue through the end of the [[Great War]].

==Origins==
The Forward Operations doctrine can be seen as a continuation of the [[Gramontist]] principle of socialist internationalism, which was pursued on an ad hoc basis by succeeding governments during the [[Republican Era]]. This was pursued with the most lasting effects during the [[Accession of Lienne]], when President [[Sun Jia-wei]] authorized that Laeralian Marines covertly offer arms and training to the [[Liennese Provisional Army]] in 1947, prior to the Liennese declaration of independence.
