Marcus

5. Based on this Operational Objective, what Force must be employed?

The assignment looks more collaborative vs. work that can be broken down into individual tasks. I would like to shoot for Saturday afternoon as a cut off for contribution, so that material is not being turned in the evening on Sunday. Again I will package the groups work for submission. It would be useful for this block of instruction for every one to contribute thoughts on each question. The comments section is not perfect, and requires you to hit enter when you are done but it offers a running tab of contributions on the material. Please share your thoughts and cite the reference where you may have gained some information. Please share any feedback to make this process smoother.]]> 2018-12-10 14:12:28 UTC https://padlet.com/evans505/TEAMMACARTHURMB/wish/312922453 william_b_pie https://padlet.com/evans505/TEAMMACARTHURMB/wish/313636420 Anybody want to commit to a zoom chat Wednesday and/or Thursday evening around 1700?

I think a critical vulnerability of SWPA is that they had transport and logistics vessels, but not a strong fighting fleet. So they compensated for that Critical Vulnerability by bringing in 3rd Fleet.]]> 2018-12-23 19:09:18 UTC https://padlet.com/evans505/TEAMMACARTHURMB/wish/316569904 puknuk https://padlet.com/evans505/TEAMMACARTHURMB/wish/316572764 I'm looking at it now]]> 2018-12-23 20:17:38 UTC https://padlet.com/evans505/TEAMMACARTHURMB/wish/316572764 puknuk https://padlet.com/evans505/TEAMMACARTHURMB/wish/316572865 Bill I think I'm a little confused, if you can call 757-277-6323.
