O knihe
This paper explores the first time deployment of a C-17 squadron to a forward operating base (FOB) during a major contingency, in this case, Operation ENDURING FREEDOM (OEF). It relates the unique challenges faced by the commanders and operators alike in devising and implementing new standard operating procedures to accomplish the unit's assigned task. The purpose of the paper is to address the question: Should the construct and support of a deployed C-17 unit at a forward operating location mirror the deployment package of combat C-130 units? By analyzing real world C-17 employment and illustrating those concepts with examples from the most recent deployments in support of OEF, the thesis of this paper is that to fully maximize the capabilities of the C-17, its deployment package, when operating in an intratheater environment, should be based on the plans currently in place and used for C-130 units flying similar missions into hostile environments.
