In 1993, the U.S. Atlantic Command (USAC) was assigned the mission to maximize America's military capability through joint training, force integration, and deployment of ready U.S.-based forces to support the geographic commands', its own, and domestic requirements. This report discusses the USAC's actions to establish itself as the joint force trainer, provider, and integrator of most continental U.S.-based forces; views on the value of the USAC's contributions to joint military capabilities; and the recent expansion of the USAC's responsibilities and the possible effects on the USAC.

The authors of this monograph argue that the lynch-pin in the power projection strategy of the United States is a completely transformed U.S. Atlantic Command (USACOM). The monograph details how USACOM has been allowed to "evolve" since its inception in 1993 but is yet to achieve its full potential for implementing the CONUS-based power projection strategy. Recognizing USACOM as a principal actor in support of this new strategy, the authors recommend that USACOM should be further transformed into a "Joint Forces Command." Their analysis exposes the need for a significant review of Title 10 of the U.S. Code and a reexamination of some of the fundamental tenets underlying the structure and command of the U.S. armed forces. The reappraisals they propose will impact the Office of the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the Joint Staff, the Military Departments, and the unified combatant commands in important ways.

As the twenty-first century approaches, the United States faces the critical challenge of ensuring that its military forces can meet a full range of demands. Joint operations are key to meeting this challenge, and the U.S. Atlantic Command (USACOM) was designed to play a major role in advancing the evolution of joint military capabilities. In response to congressional interest in Department of Defense (DOD) efforts to improve joint operations, GAO determined (1) USACOM'S actions to establish itself as the joint force trainer, provider, and integrator of most continental U.S.-based forces; (2) views on the value of the Command's contributions to joint military capabilities; and (3) recent expansion of the Command's responsibilities and its possible effects on the Command.
