The Norway Airlanded MEB's Role in Crisis Response for the 1990's

Abstract

This monograph examines whether the Norway Airlanded Marine Expeditionary Brigade (NALM), a unique MAGTF, will be a viable concept for crisis response as part of America's defense strategy for the 1990's. The NALM concept was designed to provide the Supreme Allied Commander Europe and the theater level planners with a viable instrument of war with which to execute their campaign plan on the northern flank of Europe. A strategic deployment option, the NALM concept consists of the use of selected equipment and supplies prepositioned In facilities In Central Norway. A Marine Expeditionary Brigade will be airlifted to link up with prepositioned equipment for further movement to an employment area within Norway.
