Strategic sealift is essential to the Department of Defense for it to carry out its national security mission. Surge sealift is provided primarily by DoD's organic fleet. Sustainment sealift is accomplished through chartering commercial ships. U.S. maritime policy places the primary requirement for sustainment sealift on the U.S. maritime industry. Policies dating to the 1920s attempt to ensure an adequate number of ships by providing operating subsidies and cargo preference. Despite these policies, the size of the U.S. commercial fleet has decline& DoD uses foreign flag ships to meet its needs when U.S.- flagged vessels are not available. Foreign flag ship use is significant and presents risk to the conduct of military operations. The world maritime industry has undergone significant change. The rise of flags of convenience and open registries has altered the industry. This thesis reviews U.S. maritime policy, DoD's requirement for sealift and options for obtaining sealift. It identifies and explores the nature of the risk related to strategic sealift facing the DoD as it enters the 21st century and suggests that the risk associated with the use of foreign flag vessels is low.

Since the 1980s, strategic sealift has been formally designated as a U.S. Navy mission. With over ninety percent of all military equipment and supplies required to support U.S. military forces in combat being delivered by sea, and as globalized interests and risks continue to spread, this mission is vital to the country's economic and national security. Despite its necessity, sealift is rarely discussed as anything other than an operations adjunct and must be carried out in an environment of unprecedented fiscal constraints. Global Reach provides a unique examination into the development and implementation of more than a century of U.S. national defense sealift policy. Presenting a comprehensive history on the evolution of sealift from the Spanish American War (1898) to Operation Enduring Freedom/Iraqi Freedom (2002-12), Herberger, Gaulden, and Marshall reflect on what has and has not worked in that time from both a legal and operational perspective. As international demands grow and change, so too must the sealift policies that are directly tied to how the nation will address them. With its thorough history and cogent analysis, Global Reach provides the context necessary to understand this complex, important topic, but also lays out a roadmap for how the U.S. can continue to meet and respond to the increasing challenges of the years to come.

The ships and mariners of the U.S. merchant marine have played an important role in every war that the U.S. has entered this century. However, the U.S. merchant marine has been in a protracted decline. From a high of 3500 in 1945, the number of U.S.-flag ocean-going vessels has declined to 322 in 1997. And over the last 10 years, the number of active U.S. merchant seaman positions has fallen from 28,000 to 7,600. While the U.S. government has compensated for the decline in the numbers of ships by acquiring an organic strategic sealift fleet, no coordinated effort has been made to maintain an adequate pool of merchant mariners to man the ships. Currently, U.S. Maritime Administration estimates show that a shortfall of mariners available for strategic sealift will manifest early in the 21st century. Ironically, in the face of declining merchant marine, the U.S. is more dependent than ever on strategic sealift due to a reduced overseas presence and need the to have a force-projection military. This report frames the issue of the declining pool of mariners as a crisis that threatens to undermine the nation's ability to project military power in support of the National Security Strategy.

Strategic sealift has never been more important to US national security, and US strategic sealift capability has never been weaker than it is today. An ominous hint of what was to come can be found at the end of this 1991 thesis at the Naval War College, recommending: ... an intermodal network combined with Just In Time practices. U.S. flag carriers are seeing intermodalism as the watch-word of the future ... adapting an intermodal structure to strategic sealift requirements. Along the same lines, Just In Time provides today's businesses with up to the minute information and easy off-load access. That worked out just great during the pandemic as global supply chains ground to a halt.Now, as the US prepares for war in the Pacific, it is finally sinking in that fighting wars overseas requires ample, independent, US-flagged strategic sealift. In a world of escalating geopolitical tensions, the need to rapidly deploy forces and provide logistical support is more critical than ever. This book offers a compelling analysis of a nation's ability to project power across oceans and continents, connecting directly to the headlines of today. Beyond its strategic implications, the story of strategic sealift taps into our fundamental drive to explore, to venture beyond boundaries, and to ensure security and stability in a world often characterized by uncertainty.
