Reseña del editor

This study examines force structure options available to the United States Army to improve performance of its units in military operations other than war (MOOTW) without jeopardizing those units ability to fight and win two near simultaneous major theater wars (MTW). The study begins by establishing the need for increased MOOTW competency based on recent historical trends, realistic assessments of future threats, and existing strategic guidance. Subsequently, the study examines the impact of recent force structure decisions and their potential to enhance MOOTW effectiveness in future operations. The study analyzes possible options discussed in existing literature to determine if they meet screening criteria to maintain combat readiness, meet strategic guidance, and provide for worst-case scenarios. The study then assesses these options based on their ability to reduce individual units' operational tempo, increase organizational flexibility, and gain political and organizational acceptance. Based on these assessments, the study provides a range of refined options available to Army policy makers that incorporate the best aspects of existing proposals.
