Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Each year Department of Defense (DoD) funding requests include money for the operation and modernization of U.S. projection forces -- forces that are configured primarily to respond rapidly to Presidential directives for long-distance entry into enemy territory against armed opposition. They include the two divisions of the U.S. Army XVIII Corps (the 82nd Airborne and 101st Airmobile Divisions), the three active Marine divisions and air wings, and parts of the sea-based Navy and Air Force tactical air forces. The issue before the Congress is one of choosing among alternate levels and modernization programs for these forces. Since World War II, most of these forces have been used primarily outside NATO's Central Region in Europe. They are generally thought of in relation to non-European contingencies and, in fact, are likely to be used if the United States were to employ military force rapidly outside Europe. Projection forces are planned, however, to help the United States pursue what has been called a "one-and-one-half war" strategy, namely, the capacity to wage simultaneously a major conflict centered in Europe with the Warsaw Pact and a less demanding military contingency elsewhere. Thus, the size and structure of the projection forces that the Congress is asked to fund derives from the way the DoD estimates they might be used both in Europe and elsewhere. The scenarios DoD employs as analytic devices to size and structure forces are purposely constructed to be very demanding. These scenarios reflect major assumptions that inherently generate high force requirements: (1) that the United States would have little support from allies; (2) that a half war demanding considerable U.S. resources could occur concurrently with a major war centered in Europe; (3) that such a conflict might involve Soviet forces; and (4) that many forces employed in a half war -- particularly ground forces -- could not be redeployed for operations in the major conflict.

Book excerpt: This study concludes airpower will play an increasingly dominant role in future US contingency responses. Power projection is defined as the finite application of military power by national command authority to achieve discrete political ends outside the borders of the United States, its territories, and possessions. Power projection contingencies are characterized as wars and operations short of war, but not conflicts that are global or total in nature. Future contingencies that demand a US response may occur without warning, be time sensitive, and require short duration deployments. US forces may not have immediate access to or a previously established presence in potential theaters of operation. Due to the changing nature of the international environment and domestic priorities, the President defined a new National Secunty Strategy that emphasizes projecting military forces in response to regional conflicts. The military services are currently modifying their doctrine and force structures to reflect the shift towards power projection. The services agree power projection forces must be lethal, flexible, deployable, mobile, and capable of surviving an increasingly hostile threat environment. Comparing force characteristics reveals airpower has greater flexibility, deployability, mobility, and is better able to survive future threat environments than surface forces. New domestic imperatives have also forced the services to engage in a healthy competition to preserve their share of a shrinking defense budget. In terms of efficiency, apportioning resources according to an arcane formula that does not reflect force capabilities or the future utility of primary service functions is illogical. Building a strong power projection capability requires a thorough evaluation of the relative efficacy of air, land, and sea power to perform the power projection mission.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) examines many developments that could have short- or longer-term consequences for the budget and the economy. In coming decades, one such development is expected to be a slower rate of growth of the labor force relative to its average over the past few decades. That slowdown is anticipated to occur primarily because of the aging and retirement of large numbers of baby boomers and because women's participation in the labor force has leveled off since the late 1990s after having risen substantially for the preceding three decades. This report describes CBO's methods for projecting such trends through 2021. Charts and tables. This is a print on demand report.
