An examination of the history of the US Navy salvage in peace and war reveals that the unique organization of US Navy salvage, traditionally and as necessitated by current peacetime requirements, is not optimized for wartime operations across the spectrum of conflict. As shown by this history (most lately in Operation Desert Storm) and despite lessons learned and relearned through the entire twentieth century, today's Naval Task Force Commander is not optimally supported in the salvage mission area, even given present naval capabilities. Navy staffs are not organized or manned to incorporate salvage into either long term or short range planning.
