5. Maritime Strategy“Preventing Wars is as important as winning wars.” Expanded Core Capabilities Forward Presence. Globally postured to secure our homeland Deterrence. Preventing war, globally, regionally; Theater Security Cooperation activities Sea Control. Ability to operate freely at sea Power Projection. Postured for rapid response to crisis's around the world…anywhere…anytime Maritime Security. Countering irregular/transnational threats Humanitarian Assistance/Disaster Relief. Foster and sustain cooperative partnerships through action in times of need “A Cooperative Strategy for 21st Century Seapower” • The Maritime Domain: • The world’s oceans, seas, bays, estuaries, islands, coastal areas, littorals, and the airspace above them • Covers ¾ of Earth’s surface • Supports 90% of the world’s trade, 2/3 of petroleum • Carries the lifeblood of a global system that links every country on earth

6. Strategy Objectives Focus on the Individual Marine Improve Training and Education for Fog, Friction, and Uncertainty Expand Persistent Forward Presence and Engagement Posture for Hybrid Threats in Complex Environments Reinforce Naval Relationships • Ensure Amphibious Force Levels Meet Strategic Requirements • Create Joint Seabasing Capabilities • Lead Joint/ Multinational Operations and Enable Interagency Activities • Maintain A Ready and Sustainable Reserve • Build and Deploy Multi-capable MAGTFs A national imperative - Strengthening the MAGTF for employment across the ROMO

14. Marine Air Ground Task Force (MAGTF [‘mag-taff]) “MAGTF \’mag-taff\n [derived from a longstanding naval expeditionary tradition and state of mind]; Marine Air-Ground Task Force. 1: a combination of four military arms-command, ground, air and support-whose whole is exponentially stronger than its parts. 2: a self-contained and self-sustained combined arms striking force, capable of operating from land or on a mobile and protected sea base. 3: a scalable, modular building-block organization that ensures the most appropriate and cost-effective capabilities are applied to the task at hand. 4: a enabler for Joint Task Force operations. 5: a rheostat of equally expandable or retractable crisis response options that can be tailored to meet any crisis. 6: a unique form of naval expeditionary operations practiced by the United States.” United States Marine Corps, “Send in the Marines . . . the Art of MAGTF Operations.”

24. MLG Capabilities • Combat Logistics Regiment Forward – Assumes former H&S BN and Brigade Level Missions. • DS Combat Logistics Regiment – Provides DS logistics to the Marine Division. Structured to provide DS logistics support to the RCT (Regimental Combat Team). • GS Combat Logistics Regiment – Provides GS logistics to the MEF. Provides functional capability to the DS CLR and CLB mission dependent. • Nucleus of the GS CLR HQ is Supply Bn, Maint Bn and Med Bn • The LCE element of the MEU is the MEU CLB. About 300 Marines and Sailors provide combat support, specifically supply; maintenance; transportation; explosive ordnance disposal; military police; water production and distribution; engineering; medical and dental services; fuel storage and distribution; and other services to the deployed MEU. The CLB gives the MEU the ability to support itself for 15 days in austere expeditionary environments.

33. Marine Aircraft Wing (MAW) The mission of the MAW: Conduct air operations in support of the Marine Forces to include: Offensive Air Support, Anti-air Warfare, Assault Support, Aerial Reconnaissance, Electronic Warfare, and Control of Aircraft and Missiles. As a collateral function, the MAW may participate as an integral component of naval aviation in the execution of such other Navy functions as the Fleet Commander may direct.

34. MARINE AVIATION LOGISTICS SQUADRON (MALS) The mission of the MALS: Provide aviation logistics support to include aircraft intermediate maintenance repair capability, avionics repair capability, aviation supply support, aviation ordnance support and information systems support to all operational squadrons within the MAG.

38. AIR Speed is… Enterprise Approach Applies Theory of Constraints principle Utilizes “Time to Reliably Replenish” concept to size and position safety stock Maximizes throughput of material in bottlenecked processes Increases ability to meet warfighter demand (i.e., readiness) Reduces investment in material (i.e., inventory, equipment capacity, and facilities) Applies Lean and Six Sigma principles to maintenance and supply processes to optimize throughput

39. 2015 MAGTF Logistics ADOPTING BEST COMMERCIAL PRACTICES, THE FUNCTIONS OF LOGISTICS WILL UNDERGO A TRANSFORMATION TO REPLACE MASS WITH INFORMATION AND SPEED (SEABASED LOGISTICS). SEABASING MAINTENANCE FOR BOTH AVIATION AND GROUND COMBAT EQUIPMENT WILL BE CRITICAL TO MAINTAINING HIGH TEMPO FOR EXTENDED PERIODS AND THE ABILITY TO RECONSTITUTE EQUIPMENT (SEABASED LOGISTICS).
