| Summary / Abstract (Note) | Throughout the decade of the 1990s, the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps spent considerable time and energy attempting to define their roles in a new security environment created by the end of the Cold War. The decline of Soviet power, accentuated by large cutbacks in military spending and a withdrawal fromCentral and Eastern Europe, left the United States without a peer competitor politically, diplomatically, ormilitarily-on the world scene.1 As ideas and concepts churned throughout the Department of Defense, the Navy andMarine Corps issued a series of strategic and operational concept papers that defined the new security environment along with the roles and missions of the sea services. |
