This paper proposes a force assignment evolution which would assign a Joint Expeditionary Force (JEF) to each regional unified command. This would allow for the unified commander-in-chief to have COCOM over the initial crisis response forces on a daily basis. The JEF would have an Army, Navy, Marine Corp, and Air Force component, which would routinely train and employ together. The paper considers the expeditionary history of the individual services, joint task forces, and the Rapid Deployment Joint Task Force as a means of developing the JEF concept.
