Re-Shaping the USMC as a Crisis Management Force: Working Naval Integration
07/30/2021
By Robbin Laird
The Marines are re-focusing their efforts from the Middle East land wars to shaping their way ahead to build a purpose-built force to facilitate sea denial and assured access in support of fleet and joint operations against potential adversaries.
One way they are doing this is working with the U.S. Navy in new ways to operate together.
Because the U.S. Navy is itself undergoing fundamental change as they return to a clear priority on blue water operations and littoral engagements, this means that the Marines are changing with a sense of urgency while the Navy is itself.
It is really an interactive engagement exploring ways to shape more effective crisis management and combat capabilities to deal with strategic competition.
