US Navy organization and missions: Today's Navy: "On-scene, on-call, and on-demand"
Article Abstract:
The US Navy's mission, to maintain, train, and equip combat-ready naval forces capable of winning wars, has not changed for 2004 and it has taken a new look at how it prepares the national fleet to meet the requirements for increased effectiveness, capability and greater flexibility. The US Navy of the new century is evolving to meet the challenges of the era after the 9/11 terrorist attacks and its key role is to mature the concept of using the sea base as the foundation for joint organization operations.
