The United States has chosen to emphasize a power projection role for its military. This capability proved itself during Operation Desert Storm. However, Desert Storm also pointed out a significant weakness. To stop the U.S. military, an enemy need only interrupt the logistics chain. How well does the U.S. guard its Logistic ability.

This in turn could cause the U.S. to abandon or change national priorities. Iran, Logistics, Major regional conflict, Sealift, Airlift, Submarines, Mining, Terrorism, Security.
