US Greek Naval Relations Begin

/reports/2003/us-greek-naval-relations-begin

This paper discusses the U.S. Navy’s campaign against Greek pirates who interfered with American shipping in the Aegean during the second decade of the nineteenth century. This campaign was not a particularly important one in the overall history of the U.S. Navy, nor did it strongly influence subsequent Greek-American naval relations. Nevertheless, it illustrates some key aspects of the nature of the Greek war for independence, and of the republic in North America that had itself won its independence less than half a century earlier.

Why was the Navy at the forefront of the far-forward attacks on alQaeda in Afghanistan and the move against Iraq, while willing to take a back seat to the Coast Guard at home? Why did the Navy respond to one of the worst failures in defense at home in the nation's history principally by striking farther forward than it ever had before? Current national policy and naval strategy provide much of the answer, of course. History, however, also provides some clues.

A Deep Legacy

/reports/1998/a-deep-legacy

Already the environment the Navy must operate in, the technology available to it, and the culture and attitudes that drive its decisions are beginning to differ from what they were in the Cold War. It is reason­ able to assume that they will continue to evolve. Throughout its history the United States Navy has had to adapt to its environment. The Navy has reacted to its environment in many differ­ent ways. After looking at the Navy's history we have identified patterns in how the Navy reacted in the past that can be used to shape and direct future debates about how naval forces could operate.
