This paper raises questions regarding the U.S. Navy's readiness to deal effectively with low level third world threats. The employment of helicopters outside their normal mission areas during Operation Earnest Will, the Kuwaiti reflagging operation, is used as a basis for describing the the kind of innovative actions that will enable the armed forces to counter the low technology, guerilla war-at-sea scenarios which it will encounter in the future. Various mission areas are highlighted in an attempt to stimulate discussion on how the unique capabilities possessed by each service could lead to more joint operations and less redundancy.
