Peace Operations: DOD's Incremental Costs and Funding for Fiscal Year 1994
Abstract
U.S. military forces participated in several contingency operations during fiscal year 1994. These operations included (1) activities in support of U.N. peace operations in Bosnia, Haiti, Somalia, and Southwest Asia; (2) the increased deployment of military capability to South Korea in response to heightened tensions; and (3) the enforcement of a revised U.S. migration policy designed to prevent Cuban migrants from reaching the United States. The map shows where these operations occurred and the Department of Defenses (DOD) reported incremental costs for each operation. DOD does not budget for the cost of contingency operations. Therefore, a common characteristic of each operation is that it was not included in DOD's budget for fiscal year 1994. DOD had to absorb the cost of these operations within its existing budget or seek supplemental appropriations. During fiscal year 1994, DOD received supplemental appropriations for some of these operations.
