• The only content ‘nuance’ on the cover page is the person authorized to sign the memo.

• If this is a NEW JUON/JEON, or recommends MODIFICATIONS to the capability requirements in a previously validated JUON/JEON, the memo must be endorsed by the Combatant Commander, Deputy/Vice Commander, or Chief of Staff.

• If this is an administrative modification to a previously validated JUON/JEON, the memo can be endorsed by the Combatant Command J-8, or those mentioned above.

• If this is a Vice Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff (VCJCS)-directed JUON/JEON, while the appropriate J-Dir or JS Office will generate the JUON/JEON for submission, the endorsement must come from the Joint Staff J-8.

• There are two administrative ‘nuances’ in the template on the cover page:

• The software provides a place to insert a .jpg of your command’s letterhead, if you have one. If not, just print it out on stationary with the letterhead already present.

• The software has a ‘placeholder’ for a digital signature. You must either use Adobe Acrobat to add a digital signature, or of course, print the document and add a wet signature. Then you will need to scan it back into PDF.
