“A Cooperative Strategy for 21st Century Seapower” recognized the economic links of the global system and how any disruption due to regional crises – manmade or natural – can adversely impact the U.S. economy and quality of life. This new strategy charts a course for the Navy, Coast Guard and Marine Corps to work collectively with each other and international partners to prevent these crises from occurring or reacting quickly should one occur to avoid negative impacts to the U.S.

- Good Morning/Day/Evening, Today I would like to discuss the new Maritime Strategy with you, giving a short overview of what it is, and then allow time for some discussions. The new Maritime Strategy was signed this past October by the three Maritime Service Chiefs, Admiral Roughead, USN, Admiral Allen, USCG, and General Conway, USMC, who together presented the strategy at the International SeaPower Symposium in Newport 17 October 2007. This significant and strategic milestone, was the culmination of over a year-long effort of academic rigor, in-depth analysis, open and inclusive dialogue, wide ranging competitions of ideas, and an involved leadership that ensured that all aspects of maritime and national interests and guidance were incorporated and included. This strategy reflects all of those inputs, analysis and guidance that we received, discussed and then agreed upon – which has now set the rudder and course for our Sea Services; there is no classified supplement, this is the new Maritime Strategy.
- What we know: This slide presents some basic data points that we, as maritime nations, know very well as significant facts that influence our daily lives, the economics of each of our nations, and the global community as a whole. With these facts in mind, among many others related to the importance of the maritime commons, we were challenged by ADM Mullen, then Chief of Naval Operations and now Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, in June 2006 to rethink the Navy’s Strategy -- a strategy that had not been thoroughly revised in a rigorous and academic fashion since the Cold War days of the 1980’s. There have been significant changes across the global spectrum since the, but the data on this slide reinforces the global importance of the maritime domain.
- As we developed the foundation for the new maritime strategy, we took an in-depth look at the strategic environment for the next 15 to 20 years. With the Naval War College as the lead for many of our studies, numerous war games and seminars were conducted, many of them open to the public, to look at what were many of the driving influences that would affect our nation, the global commons, and world stability that would help us with the strategy development. What was fairly evident was that within the context of the Strategic Environment, there clearly exists a New Era, an evolved era of global interconnectedness, comprised of an ever-changing set of world military and economic players, shifts in economic centers of gravity, increased competition for resources across the globe, new challenges and dangers to commerce, stability, and peace; with uncertain global climate changes that have the possibility of affecting all of our lives . Tensions of varying levels exists in many nations and across national boundaries with regards to freedom of expression, tolerance, economic growth, and extremism, all with the potential to generate internal conflicts, leading to much larger regional conflicts, ultimately affecting the global system of trade and interconnectedness. We continue to see how governments, non-governmental organizations, international organizations, and public and private sectors are forming interconnected partnerships to address many of these challenges. All of these findings, discussions, and strategic thinking, led us to the conclusion, that there is a global system that is in transition, one that is unsettled, unbalanced, and potentially dangerous, not just to the United States, but to the global community. Our strategy goal, therefore, is to seek a balanced a stable world, one where we can be best postured, trained, and able to promote that stability.
- The new Maritime Strategy was agreed upon and signed in October by General Conway, Admiral Allen, and Admiral Roughead and presented at the International SeaPower Symposium – So, what is new with this strategy: We clearly believe that preventing war is as important as winning wars – this does not mean that we have diminished the need for strong military power capable of fighting and winning our Nation’s wars, but that we also believe that it is just as important to prevent those wars from happening as well. The Sea Services also raised the importance of cooperative relationships as the basis for global maritime security – a common goal of all maritime nations regardless of political differences. Maritime nations have always shared common interests on the sea, but all nations rely on the safety of those seas to maintain and enhance their ways of life. We also raise the importance of those missions related to Humanitarian Assistance & Disaster Relief to a core element of maritime power – we have always done these missions, and will always do it, just now we will plan and train to do these on a more regular basis. We also see a greater degree of connectedness at all levels of our national power, not just the Sea Services, and not simply Joint, but also at the interagency level across the range of missions that we currently do and will do. Our challenge is therefore to apply SeaPower in a manner that protects U.S. vital and domestic interests, even as it promotes greater collective security, stability, and trust across the globe.
- As mentioned earlier, the fact that this document was signed by the heads of the three Sea Services was unique and a precedent setting decision; this acknowledges our strong maritime bond and the need to continue to work more closely together. Writing a single service strategy in itself is a difficult undertaking, but we felt that it was worth the effort to make this strategy more than just a single service view, but a more enduring and comprehensive vision the role and use of the Sea Services. Part of our strategy development was also done with the American Public through our Conversations with the Country and Senior Executive Seminars. This involvement was a great window for us to canvas the nation and look into what the public wants their military to do – first and foremost was the desire for us to protect the homeland and defend their way of life. The strategy also acknowledges that there is a global system of connected economies which depends on the freedom of movement across the maritime commons; undeniably the principal means for the majority of the world’s commerce. With such a global interconnection of economies, shocks to the system caused by conflicts, disasters, and war, affect all of our lives in one way or another. Our vital interests are therefore best served by being around the globe, postured in a way to prevent, deter, limit, and localize conflicts, wars, and disruptions to the system we all rely upon.
- Although the Sea Services conduct many missions, the following six capabilities comprise the core of U.S. maritime power and reflect an increase in emphasis on those activities that prevent war and build partnerships : Forward Presence Deterrence Sea Control Power Projection Maritime Security Humanitarian Assistance & Disaster Response The first four core elements listed have always been fundamental to our modern Navy, and were essential elements to our Nation in winning the Cold War...and are just as important and essential today. The last two of this list, Maritime Security and Humanitarian Assistance & Disaster Response, have now been elevated to core elements by the new maritime strategy – we have always done them, but we will now be more proactive and purposeful in our training, missions, and resourcing of those capabilities associated with them.
- There have been, and continue to be, a number of Theater Security Cooperation (TSC) and Humanitarian & Civil Assistance (HCA) missions involving deployments by Navy ships. The Orange and Red dots represent actual locations of TSCs and HCAs planned by Navy Component Commanders utilizing the ships noted on the slide. Current deployments : BOXER is conducting 2-month deployment to SOUTHCOM for HCA missions in Central & South America under Operation Continuing Promise. BOXER has completed HCA missions to Guatemala and El Salvador and will stop in Colombia enroute the final Continuing Promise HCA missions in Peru later this month. While FORT McHENRY & SWIFT completed their role in the Africa Partnership Station TSC to Gulf of Guinea and West Coast of Africa nations, NMCB 74’s Det is still in Monrovia, Liberia. GEORGE WASHINGTON, FARRAGUT & KAUFFMAN conducted Partnership of the Americas TSC events, including UNITAS LANT, as WASHINGTON circumnavigated South America. FARRAGUT & KAUFFMAN are currently participating in UNITAS PAC. ASHLAND’s TSC visits included Madagascar, Mauritius, Comoros, Seychelles, and Kenya. ESSEX ESG (with HARPERS FERRY, JUNEAU & MUSTIN) deployed off Burma for potential HA/DR missions (Operation Caring Response) after the devastation of Tropical Cyclone Nargis. MERCY is currently deployed to the Philippines for Pacific Partnership 08 HCA missions; follow-on HCA stops are scheduled for Vietnam, Singapore, and Papua New Guinea. TORTUGA, JARRETT & FORD are conducting CARAT TSC events in the Philippines, followed by CARAT TSC events in Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore and Brunei. Future deployments : KEARSARGE will conduct a future HCA deployment to SOUTHCOM later in FY08 called Operation New Horizons. Other Recent Examples of TSC and HCA (or HA/DR) missions : Global Fleet Station/African Partnership Station, US-led response to African nation requests for maritime training.

Construction of rudimentary surface transportation systems. Well drilling and construction of basic sanitation facilities. Rudimentary construction and repair of public facilities. Theater Security Cooperation (TSC) involves: Assistance that fulfills unit-level training requirements, which incidentally create humanitarian benefit to local populace. Theater Security Cooperation (TSC): All DoD interactions with foreign defense establishments are used to build relationships that promote specific US security interests, develop allied and friendly military capabilities for self-defense and multinational operations, and provide US forces with peacetime and contingency access to a host nation. Theater Security Cooperation (TSC) activity: Military activity that involves other nations and is intended to shape the operational environment in peacetime. Activities include programs and exercises that the US military conducts with other nations to improve mutual understanding and improve interoperability with treaty partners or potential coalition partners. They are designed to support a Combatant Commander’s theater strategy in the Theater Security Cooperation (TSC) plan.
- Key Takeaways The Maritime Strategy calls for both high-end investments to meet emerging threats, and low-end investments to build cooperative partnerships; Our current investment portfolio is somewhere in between these two areas. Exacerbated by a fiscally challenged environment, we have difficult choices to make for POM-10 … Our challenge in executing the Maritime Strategy via the PPBE process is to place equal emphasis on preventing wars as we do winning wars, without forfeiting our ability to do the latter.
