Debates over the U.S. global defense posture are not new. As policymakers today evaluate the U.S. forward military presence, it is important that they understand how and why the U.S. global posture has changed in the past. Today's posture is under increasing pressure from a number of sources, including budgetary constraints, precision-guided weapons that reduce the survivability of forward bases, and host-nation opposition to a U.S. military presence. This monograph aims to describe the evolution of the U.S. global defense posture from 1783 to the present and to explain how the United States has grown from a relatively weak and insular regional power that was primarily concerned with territorial defense into the preeminent global power, with an expansive system of overseas bases and forward-deployed forces that enable it to conduct expeditionary operations around the globe. This historical overview has important implications for current policy and future efforts to develop an American military strategy, in particular the scope, size, and type of military presence overseas. As new and unpredictable threats emerge, alliance relationships are revised, and resources decline, past efforts at dealing with similar problems yield important lessons for future decisions. The author draws recommendations out of these lessons that touch on the importance of strategic planning; the need to think globally; the desirability of a lighter, more agile footprint overseas; and more.

The DoD plans to reduce the number of troops permanently stationed overseas, consolidate overseas bases, and establish a network of smaller forward locations with limited personnel. Realigning the U.S. overseas posture involves closing obsolete and redundant bases, constructing new facilities costing billions of dollars, and ensuring that other needed infrastructure is in place to support realigned forces and missions. There are two shortcomings in the dept's. approach: (1) DoD has not reported on global posture matters in a comprehensive manner; (2) Geographic combatant commands have not established a consistent approach to monitor initiative implementation, assess progress, and periodically report on results.

In 2004, the Department of Defense (DoD) announced sweeping changes to restructure U.S. military presence overseas and reduce military posture in Europe. In August 2010, the Secretary of Defense called for a review of DoD operations and activities to identify opportunities to decrease costs in order to free funds to support other DoD priorities. This report determined the extent to which the European Command: (1) estimates and reports the total cost of DoD's installations in Europe; and (2) has defined methods for evaluating posture alternatives and including the views of interagency stakeholders in its posture planning process. Includes recommendations. Charts and tables. This is a print on demand edition of an important, hard-to-find publication.

U.S. Air Force (USAF) global posture—its overseas forces, facilities, and arrangements with partner nations—faces a variety of fiscal, political, and military challenges. This report seeks to identify why the USAF needs a global posture, where it needs basing and access, the types of security partnerships that minimize peacetime access risk, and the amount of forward presence that the USAF requires.

This budget marks a major inflection point for the Department of Defense. Over the last year, Secretary Carter has shifted the weight of the defense budget to focus on five evolving challenges we face - great power competition from a resurgent Russia and a rising China, regional threats from North Korea and Iran, and the enduring need to counter terrorism - because, while the basic elements of our nation's defense strategy remain valid, today's security environment demands that DoD be flexible and innovative in response. Armed with a bipartisan budget deal that provided some critical stability for 2017 by setting the size of the budget for two years, this year's budget, described in this posture statement, drives change by setting its shape and direction: to adjust to a new strategic era, and to seize opportunities for the future. It makes and sharpens breakthrough investments in new operational concepts, in pioneering and dominating technological frontiers (including undersea, cyber, space, electronic warfare, and other advanced capabilities), in reforming the DoD enterprise, and in building the force of the future. The product of a Secretary of Defense who's determined to be open to new ideas, to fight the fights of today while significantly re-envisioning and recommitting to high-end deterrence for tomorrow, and to care for and leverage the enduring advantage that is and always will be our people, this budget is key to ensuring that America's military can continue to defend our country and help make a better world for generations to come.

NATO's upcoming debate over how to handle new strategic challenges should address not only policy and strategy, but also the thorny details of defense budgets and programs. If the European allies lack the proper military forces, they will not be able to help meet new challenges even if their political views are responsive. Additional investment funds will be needed if they are to pursue such critical initiatives as the revolution in military affairs (RMA), peace support missions, NATO enlargement, weapons of mass destruction (WMD) defense, power projection outside Europe, and fair burden-sharing. Because some reductions seem necessary, the tradeoff between quantity and quality likely will become a defining issue for NATO. Common western interests will be better served if European forces are somewhat smaller than now, but more capable of performing new, high- priority missions. Relevant forces and high quality are the keys to the future.
