Quadrennial Defense Review

Key Mission Areas

Obviously, the secretary of defense is speaking for all of the Armed Forces and for the civilian government of the United States.

Defend the United States and support the civil authorities at home. Homeland security is a priority at all times.

Succeed in counterinsurgency, stability and counterterrorism operations in the war on terror. We must kill and destroy the enemy to prevent another 9/11.

Build the security capacity of partner states (allies). The United States can not do the job alone. Coalition countries must be trained and supported in the war on terror.

Deter and defeat aggression in anti-access environments. We must deter aggression before it happens and defeat it when it occurs.

Fifth, we must prevent proliferation and counter weapons of mass destruction that might be deployed by rogue states. Rogue states must not be allowed to acquire weapons of mass destruction and must be denied the ability to acquire them in the first place.

Finally, we must also operate effectively in cyberspace and enhance the All-Volunteer Force. We must deter threats to our electronic security and keep the volunteer force strong. It is much better than a conscript army.

General George W. Casey Jr.-Six Objectives:

For this objective, General Casey has stated that he is seeking to organize train and equip U.S. forces for on-time deployment to the theaters. In addition, the efforts must support the main thrust and transfer of mass from Iraq to Afghanistan.

Continue Efforts to Restore Balance. The Army must maintain progress towards FY 2011 Goals. The Army is in the third year of a four-year plan to restore balance in the Army, and it is making progress toward achieving those goals. Getting the Army back in balance remains the goal through FY 2011. The U.S. Army must maintain its focus on this goal and ensure that growth is completed and progress maintained towards a BOG-Dwell ratio of 1:2 for the Active Component and 1:4 for the Reserve Component for complete modularity and rebalancing the force.

Sustain soldiers Families and Civilians. Need to consolidate and improve on the gains we have made. We will also institutionalize both Comprehensive Soldier Fitness Program and an Army Risk Reduction and Health Promotion Program to strengthen the health of our force. Also, we need to increase our understanding of the implications of a rotational cycle and modularity on Soldier and Family support.

Establish an Integrated Management System for Army Business Operations. This requires a streamlined management system for the Army's business operations, but also a reformed acquisition and requirements process.
