This study examines the four major methods currently used to achieve military responsiveness, (forward-basing, airlift, sealift, and prepositioning), and evaluates their effectiveness. Afloat prepositioning is determined to offer the most costeffective, flexible and responsive method for increasing current operational mobility. The study also suggests that afloat prepositioning can be increased with existing funds and assets. It is recommended that POMCUS material be prepositioned on fast sealift ships, the Army's PREPO ships, and/or Ready Reserve Force ships. The study concludes that this reallocation of assets would create a new capability for the operational commander: a highly mobile, heavy-mechanized, division-sized force.
