What strategic realities are driving the transformation of American global defense posture to contend with that uncertainty, and what changes is the Department of Defense working to bring about in relationships and capabilities around the world? The Proliferation Security Initiative Cornerstone of a New International Norm . 29 Commander Joel A. Doolin, JAGC, U.S. Navy The Proliferation Security Initiative (PSI), launched in 2003, is an international effort to limit the spread of weapons of mass destruction to rogue states and terrorists. With sixteen core member states and some sixty cooperating nations, it enjoys today many advantages of law and organization in coastal waters, but it lacks useful authority to interdict WMD on the high seas. PSI itself, however, represents an opportunity to alter international law and fill that critical gap. Asia Rising India in the Indian Ocean . 58 Donald L. Berlin India has strengthened its position on the Indian Ocean’s littoral and among the ocean’s island nations. India also has become a more palpable presence in key maritime zones; its links with the most important external actors also have been strengthened. These are significant achievements, and they derive from India’s growing economic clout, maritime strength, and a surer hand in diplomacy. As this process unfolds further, it will have a transforming effect on the Indian Ocean basin and, eventually, the world. China’s Maturing Navy . 90 Rear Admiral Eric A. McVadon, U.S. Navy (Retired) A new and much more capable Chinese navy, especially its submarine force, is being acquired and deployed. It is not yet mature, but its rapid and impressive modernization is making it a navy that is arguably the only one that the U.S. Navy must deter or be able to defeat—unless, under other circumstances, it becomes a high-seas partner.

  • 2017 Progress Report
    Department of Defense Response to Executive Order 13287, “Preserve America,” Section 3: Reporting Progress on the Identification, Protection, and Use of Federal Historic Properties Includes Information on the Departments of the Army, Navy, and Air Force fiscal years 2014-2016 October 2017 Defense Section 3 Report 2 Introduction This report satisfies the requirements of Section 3(c) of Executive Order (EO) 13287, “Preserve America,”1 for the Department of Defense (DoD). The Preserve America EO directs each Federal agency with real property management responsibilities to submit reports on its “progress in identifying, protecting, and using historic properties in its ownership.” The Advisory Council on Historic Preservation (ACHP) developed questions to assist Federal agencies in meeting the reporting requirements of the Preserve America EO. DoD’s consolidated answers to those questions posed by the ACHP includes information on the Departments of the Army, Navy, and Air Force for fiscal years (FYs) 2014-2016.2 This report references policy and guidance documents from the Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD) and the Military Departments. These documents provide the framework necessary to balance and integrate proactive management of cultural resources with all aspects of the military mission. This report also provides summary data on the DoD Cultural Resources Program. The DoD is a large and complex Federal agency with the critical mission to provide the military forces needed to deter war and to protect the security of the United States.3 The DoD’s installations and facilities are critical pieces of this national defense mission. The DoD manages the largest portfolio of real property assets (structures and buildings), which includes historic properties, in the Federal government.

Studies that have been conducted to determine how best to make this transformation have not offered a comprehensive methodology or model that has proven useful. The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship between the practices of military leadership teams and organizational innovation in historic and highly successful military commands, specifically in the World War II Pacific theater of operations, to gain insights into how current and future leadership may influence innovation. The research examined historical documents, leader accounts, and scholarly literature on innovation. Through this case study, insights were gained into how current and future leadership may influence the transformation into innovative organizations through their practices.

The Fiscal Year (FY) 2017 President’s Budget submission is governed by the 2014 Quadrennial Defense Review (QDR), which implements the 2012 Defense Strategic Guidance (DSG) and continues our efforts to ensure our ability to protect the homeland, build security globally, project power and win decisively. As described in the Chief of Naval Operations’ A Design for Maintaining Maritime Superiority and the Commandant of the U.S. Marine Corps’ Advance to Contact, today’s strategic environment is dramatically more globalized with accelerating change. Global connections continue to multiply, fueled by rapid advances and proliferation in technology, particularly information technology. Our competitors are pursuing advanced weapon systems at levels and a pace of development that we have not seen since the mid-1980s.
