Description
Instructions In the CNO’s NAVPLAN (2021), he states, “Using concepts such as Distributed Naval Operations (DMO), Littoral Operations in a Contested Environment (LOCE), and Expeditionary Advanced Base Operations (EABO), our forces will mass sea and shore-based fires from distributed platforms. By maneuvering across all domains, we will create operational dilemmas, exploit uncertainty and overwhelm our adversaries. Controlling the seas by constraining or destroying the adversaries’ fleets will enable freedom of movement at sea and the projection of power ashore.” For your initial post in this module’s graded discussion, post a response of 200–250 words by Wednesday to the question below. Please ensure that your response cites at least two scholarly sources or government reports.Geographic commands can be organized by service (Department of the Navy, Department of the Army, and Department of the Air Force) or function (air, land, and sea). Given what you now know about the security goals of the United States, the goals of the services, and what they have now, where should the Marines be? Should they be in a naval or land-based functional command or should it depend on circumstance?What material from the course supports your answer and how does it support your answer?Provide an example in history that you think reflects the challenges of the day that supports your case.
