Employment of the United States Marine Corps Operating Forces in a Post OIF/OEF Security Environment: To Engage, Respond, and Protect

D.M Sadowsky

By leveraging the unique capabilities of the Marine Air-Ground Task Force, in cooperation with our joint, combined, and interagency partners, the Marine Corps is positioned to meet the requirements outlined in the National Security Strategy by fundamentally altering the mission and structure of the current operating force. This report recommends a change to the force structure, employment, and operational tasking of the United States Marine Corps in a post OIF/OEF security environment. The operational concept revolves around the formation and deployment of a Maritime Expeditionary Team, a forward deployed joint and interagency unit that is task organized, regionally based, and specifically trained to engage with foreign partners and allies, respond to crises, and protect the interests of the United States as directed by the geographic combatant commanders.
