Defining GFS Different Perspectives
A hub where all manner of joint
interagency international organizations navies
coast guards and nongovernmental organizations
could partner together as a force for good.
ADM Mike Mullen CNO GFS is
a persistent sea base of operations from which to
coordinate and employ adaptive force packages
within a regional area of interest.
SOUTHCOM Website The Global
Fleet Stations GFS pilot program will serve as
a regional cornerstone for phase 0 Shaping and
Stability Operations. GFS supplies an adaptive
force package that supports the 1000ship Navy
with a persistent presence.

Scoping the Project by Region Gulf of Guinea

• Vast expanse of ocean
• Navies and Coast Guards span a wide range of
  capabilities and needs
• Varied political/cultural/socioeconomic
  environments and situations per country offering
  a broad spectrum of government nongovernment
  and military assistance opportunities.
• Past and future pilot/HADR programs
• Opportunities for crosscampus integration

Peacetime Engagement Scenario

• Context GFS conducting training with the
  Nigerian Navy for maintenance security of
  petroleum infrastructure boarding operations
  fisheries protection border dispute resolution.
• Threat Movement for the Emancipation of the
  Niger Delta MEND militia boards a Nigerian
  Shell Oil platform near Bonny Island littoral
  steals 100s of barrels of petroleum with a small
  coastal tanker 200300 ft and a swarm of 5 fast
  boats with small arms/RPGs 3 Shell hostages
  taken.
• In cooperation with the Nigerian Government GFS
  is tasked by AFRICOM to lead the ensuing
  operation in support of the Nigerian Navys
  constitutional role.
• Why
• International training and exercises are
  fundamental parts of GMP and GFS mission
• Similar attacks are a recurring threat
• Bonny River and littoral waters are
  representative of critical traffic ways
• Negligible offshore capability is endemic to the
  region

• Why
• Information Readily Available AIDS Rates
• Pertinence to Shaping and Stability in Region
• Project Hope Representative Cooperative
• Flex the Ability of GFS to Support a NGO

29
Interagency/NGO Coordination Scenario

• Context. GFS is commencing her maiden deployment
  to the GoG Area of Operations AO. One of the
  primary mission areas of GFS Interagency/NGO
  integration is being conducted by a NGO Project
  Hope. GFS is supporting Project Hope in combating
  the HIV/AIDS epidemic through prevention care
  treatment and support in three countries
  Liberia Cameroon Angola. GFS unique
  capabilities enable her to deliver house store
  and support Project Hope in their mission.
• Assumptions
• GFS will not provide security to personnel
  associated to the NGO while ashore.
• The duration of logistical support to the NGO is
  6months.
• There is no direct threat to the security of NGO
  personnel and equipment during the initial
  deployment of Project Hope personnel in country.

Background of GFS A lot of ideas
Different views common threads an at sea
training platform that provides persistent
regional presence with a minimal footprint
ashore. CDR Mike Fulkerson U.S. Naval Forces
Europe The Navy envisages establishing as many
as five GFSs around the world each of which
might be built around a single amphibious ship or
highspeed sealift ship. CRS shallow draft
Navy ships and support vessels to operate around
rivers and littoral waters in key regions of the
world. Christopher J. Castelli
InsideDefense.com
49
Initial Concept A Regionally Tailored SeaBase
The GFS concept is based on the establishment
of a network of seabased Fleet Stations
worldwide each one servicing specific regions
where the economic and national interests of a
globalizing world of nationstates converge.
Locations for the initial seabased Global
Fleet Stations based on fleet demand and input
includes SE Asia Oceania East and West Africa
the Arabian Gulf and South and Central
America. Captain Wayne Porter USN

Peacetime Engagement
Defined Peacetime Engagements are those
operations that create an environment that
encourages peace discourages violence and
instability and builds confidence. At the same
time we also use resources to help diminish
threats counteract factors that lead to
instability and lessen the potential severity of
conflicts that may arise. Ref Secretary of
Defense William S. Cohen
56
Disaster Relief
Defined An act of nature such as a flood
drought hurricane earthquake volcanic
eruption or epidemic or an act of man such as
a riot violence civil strife explosion fire
or epidemic which is or threatens to be of
sufficient severity and magnitude to warrant
United States foreign disaster relief to a
foreign country foreign persons or to an
international organization. Ref NWDC TACMEMO
307.605 HA/DR Operations Planning
57
Humanitarian Assistance
Defined Programs conducted to relieve or reduce
the results of natural or manmade disasters or
other endemic conditions such as human pain
disease hunger or privation that might present a
serious threat to life or that can result in
great damage to or loss of property. The foreign
assistance provided is designed to supplement or
complement the efforts of host nation civil
authorities or agencies that may have primary
responsibility for providing humanitarian
assistance. Humanitarian Assistance operations
are those conducted outside the US its
territories and possessions. Ref NWDC TACMEMO
307.605 HA/DR Operations Planning
58
Interagency/NGO Coordination
Defined Within the context of Department of
Defense involvement the coordination that occurs
between elements of Department of Defense and
engaged US Government agencies for the purpose of
achieving an objective. This term and its
definition modify the existing term and its
definition and are approved for inclusion in the
next edition of JP 102. Ref JP
30 Supporting nonmilitary interagency NGO and
IGO entities that will serve as extensions of
GFS capability in influence operations. Ref

Part of the Navys overarching Seabasing CONOPS
a GFS is a persistent sea base of operations
focusing primarily on Phase 0 shaping
operations theater security cooperation and
global maritime awareness. GFS offers a means to
increase regional maritime security through the
cooperative efforts of joint interagency and
multinational partners as well as
nongovernmental organizations without imposing a
footprint ashore. CNO CNOG Feb 2007
