  2. Overarching Concept: The Sea As Maneuver Space “The strategic concept articulated in the Maritime Strategy, using the sea as maneuver space, is the overarching concept of this publication. Naval forces use this conceptual approach—seabasing—to overcome impediments to access.” • Provides joint force commanders with the ability to conduct selected functions and tasks at sea with minimal reliance on infrastructure ashore. • A concept for employing a variety of platforms, versus a specific type of platform. • Navy/Marine Corps/Coast Guard are already a sea-based force. • We continuously operate forward conducting both “soft power” and “hard power” missions • Need to develop a broader portfolio of capabilities to extend benefits of Seabasing to joint, multinational, and inter-agency partners. • At-sea transfer of people and materiel…has emerged as a key enabler for deploying, employing, and sustaining joint forces from the sea. • Building upon the foundation provided by amphibious ships, aircraft carriers, and military sealift ships, ongoing initiatives include the development of high-speed inter- and intra-theater connectors, enhanced connectors, maritime prepositioning capabilities that allow for assembly and projection of forces at and from the sea using both vertical and surface means, and integrated naval logistics. Must increase distributed, persistent forward-presence to fulfill “prevent and prevail” aspects of National Defense Strategy and Maritime Strategy.

Give parents a chance to raise their children to a better standard of living than the one they themselves enjoyed. Do that and we deter not the tactics of terrorists—they will still try to kill—but rather the ends that they seek to achieve. – ADM Mike Mullen Chairman Joint Chiefs of Staff 6
