    The Marine Corps Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU) has made strides towards reaching the goals set forth in Expeditionary Force 21 (EF 21); however, the MEU has also fallen short in other areas and will need to evolve to fulfill the goals envisioned in EF 21, particularly in developing an amphibious landing craft, increasing littoral maneuverability, and engineering new platforms to increase logistical capabilities. A line of effort in EF 21 was “increasing naval integration” by “strengthen[ing] our partnership with the Navy, Coast Guard, and SOF [Special Operations Forces].”1 In certain aspects the Marine Corps has evolved to strengthen that partnership and an example of this strengthened partnership is the development and use of the USS San Antonio. Although the USS San Antonio was commissioned prior to EF 21, the ship is an example of not only the integration of the Navy and Marine Corps by its design; it also enhanced the command and control (C2) capability with the inclusion of a combat information center, joint intelligence center, and supporting coordination center.2 This increased C2 capability was a focus area of EF 21 and a meets the goal of maintaining C2 even as command structures change and the MEU conducts disaggregated…

    “First, technology overconfidence, particularly among high-ranking commanders and staff, deludes American forces into believing they can dissolve the fog of war. Second, there is an insistence, reinforced by information technology, for high-ranking commanders to try to impose their will on very distant battles. Third and finally, there is a continued American compartmentalization of operations, nothing in planning and execution. At any given point of Anaconda, a tragic situation could have been avoided if one headquarters had shared information with another” (Czarnecki, 2005, pg.…

    The most important aspect of the program is the enduring and long-term relationships developed between leaders in the program, and the interagency and international cooperation it fosters. These activities directly contribute to an improved security environment for the GCC while increasing cooperation, interoperability, and mutual understanding between partners at all levels. The program also provides a stabilizing influence as citizen soldiers demonstrate commitment to civilian control of the military not often found in the traditions of the partnered country.

    ’The center of gravity means something to everyone, but not the same to anyone’ (Saxman, 1992 p. 4) Introduction Since Prussian military theorist Carl von Clausewitz’s treatise of On War was pub-lished in 1832 (Clausewitz, 1989 p. XI), the world has changed. Indeed, one could argue that Clausewitz, developing his theories, was never able to visualize dynamic and complex environment of contemporary warfare, fighting the enemies like al Qaeda or little green men, likewise, envisioned new domains of cyber and space to be emerged. The armed forces in various theatres and in a situation of diverging and converging threats, are currently expected to conduct wide range of operations ranging from the counterinsurgency to full-scale military operations. As boundaries between symmetric and asymmetric, irregular and regular continue to blur,…

Sometimes dreams or future plans come true and sometimes not, but when they come true, no one knows what kind of obstacles they may encounter.…

    Unconventional Warfare (UW) is considered the trademark of the U.S. Army Special Forces (SF). In fact, UW often serves as the focus for training, planning, and discussion within every aspect of the SF community. Most debates involving UW turn into an analysis of defining Unconventional Warfare and trying to figure out how to fit current SF operations into that definition. Special Forces prides itself on owning UW and serving as the Department of Defense’s subject matter experts on operating by, with, and through an indigenous force. The debate over Special Force’s ownership of this domain should not rely solely on the training, funding, or even doctrine that validates UW as a SF core task.…

War was always been a declaration of hostility between two opposing groups clashed over a battlefield in a duel with the ultimate aim to impose its will on the other. However, the advent of new technologies has completely changed these legendary and almost static clashes.…
