Seeking the Perfect Edge: Joint Enhancment of Service Title X Responsibilities

Abstract

Demonstrations of U. S. military innovation and adaptation permeate recent and ongoing joint operations. These characteristics are critical where U.S. military forces are poised against a complex, distributed, often elusive enemy. Long-term U.S. success lies in refining, recalibrating, and enhancing the effectiveness of the joint force. This enhancement must include the institutionalization of a joint culture. The incorporation of joint enhancement into Title X responsibilities of all services will facilitate tomorrow's victories as a rule vice an exception. These enhancements, focused on service education, training, and doctrine, will increase the capability of future joint forces to defeat the evolving enemy of the future. This paper utilizes the Marine Corps as an example and focuses on its required modifications. Despite focusing on shortfalls unique to the United States Marine Corps, similar deficiencies exist across all of the uniformed services. Highlighting issues specific to the Marine Corps will facilitate the analysis of other services. The ultimate goal is to aid in the future improvement of an already formidable joint force.
