Military Operations. 1.2 Neither Party shall engage in any offensive military operation. This requires the total cessation of all military action and includes, but is not limited to, such acts as:
Military Operations. Cooperation between the American and British militaries is unparalleled not only with respect to US relations with other states but perhaps even in the annals of alliances. No other state has the daily involvement in the planning and preparation of operations that the UK has with the US. US and British forces have cooperated well in Iraq and adapted quickly to the changing conditions on the ground as the war evolved from its initial conventional phase to counterinsurgency operations. Still some British experts observed that many in Britain worry that this may occur only at the tactical level. They are concerned that British influence at the operational level or on doctrinal development in the US is limited. Both Washington and Whitehall are concerned that the coalition in Iraq is less a coalition and more a clear partnership. The major European troop contributors to Iraq removed their forces by the end of 2005. Outside NATO there are no countries with military force contributions that compare in size to the United Kingdom. Pentagon and Whitehall experts frequently suggest that he January 2007 “surge strategy” or British Operation Sinbad in the south have shown some progress in military terms. But privately they all also agree that continued political progress along with sustained increases in the size and sophistication of Iraqi security forces will be crucial if the insurgency and Al Qaeda are to be defeated. Even the most optimistic analysts in both countries agree that a large-scale presence by the US and UK in Iraq for the foreseeable future is inevitable. British troops have steadily been reduced from a high of over 40,000 during the invasion to only about 5500 by the summer of 2007.11 Overall the United Kingdom contributes approximately 6800 personnel for operations in Iraq and the Persian Gulf. This includes not only the British Army but also the Royal Navy and Air Force.12 It also seems clear that reductions will continue in the near future though PM Xxxxx may wish to avoid a precipitous withdrawal. He noted during his visit with Xxxxxxxxx Xxxx that any decision to reduce British forces “will be made on the military advice of our commanders on the ground”.13 This may be due to a desire not to embarrass Xxxxxxxxx Xxxx and bring about a serious disruption of the Anglo-American relationship. Still two realities are clear. First, while the performance of British forces in the three provinces that has been their responsibility has been exemplary, succes...

Military Operations. The Prime Vendor must have the ability to support surges in demand which may be needed for an extended period of time on short notice. For this type of scenario, the capability to ramp-up quickly to meet early requirements, as well as sustainment for an extended period of time is essential. Mobilization –A full scale military mobilization or a national emergency could increase demand for supplies of those items and quantities listed in the Prime Vendor catalog. This increase in quantity may be needed for a six-month period or longer. Normal mobilization strategies provide lead times of at least 30 days to build to the necessary support level. The Prime Vendor must have the ability to support this increased level of supply for an extended period of time.
