IX Department of Defense Organization and Management A Goldwater-Nichols Reform 901. Sense of Congress on Goldwater-Nichols Reform It is the sense of Congress that the following principles should be adhered to in any reform of the Goldwater-Nichols Department of Defense Reorganization Act of 1986: (1) Civilian control of the military and the civilian chain of command must be preserved. (2) The role of the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff in providing independent military advice, as the principal military advisor to the President and the Secretary of Defense, must be preserved. (3) Any changes to the Goldwater-Nichols Act of 1986 should be rooted in a clear identification and understanding of the issues and the objectives and ramifications of any changes. (4) Any changes to the Goldwater-Nichols Act of 1986 should enhance the capabilities of the United States Armed Forces. (5) Each Geographical Unified Command has its own distinct area of emphasis and expertise, as well as requirements and responsibilities. Combining Northern Command and Southern Command, or combining European Command and Africa Command, would severely degrade mission effectiveness, but would provide only marginal increased efficiency. Additionally, consolidating Geographic Unified Commands would cause unacceptable risk to both global strategic influence as well as regional capability, and would exacerbate already significant capacity challenges. (6) The emphasis on strategy and planning in the Goldwater-Nichols Act must be sustained. (7) Complex security challenges will become increasingly transregional, multi-domain, and multi-functional. (8) Therefore, the Department of Defense, including streamlined headquarters staffs, must be more agile and adaptive. 902.

Sense of Congress regarding Connecticut’s Submarine Century (a) Findings Congress makes the following findings: (1) On March 2, 1867, Congress enacted a naval appropriations Act that authorized the Secretary of the Navy to receive and accept a deed of gift, when offered by the State of Connecticut, of a tract of land with not less than one mile of shore front on the Thames River near New London, Connecticut, to be held by the United States for naval purposes (2) The people of Connecticut and the towns and cities in the southeastern region of Connecticut subsequently gifted land to establish a military installation to fulfil the Nation’s need for a naval facility on the Atlantic coast. (3) On April 11, 1868, the Navy accepted the deed of gift of land from Connecticut to establish a naval yard and storage depot along the eastern shore of the Thames River in Groton, Connecticut; (4) Between 1868 and 1912, the New London Navy Yard supported a diverse range of missions, including berthing inactive Civil War era ironclad warships and serving as a coaling station for refueling naval ships traveling in New England waters. (5) Congress rejected the Navy’s proposal to close New London Navy Yard in 1912, following an impassioned effort by Congressman Edwin W. Higgins, who stated that this action proposed is not only unjust but unreasonable and unsound as a military proposition (6) The outbreak of World War I and the enemy use of submarines to sink allied military and civilian ships in the Atlantic sparked a new focus on developing submarine capabilities in the United States. (7) October 18, 1915, marked the arrival at the New London Navy Yard of the submarines G–1, G–2, and G–4 under the care of the tender U.S.S. OZARK, soon followed by the arrival of submarines E–1, D–1, and D–3 under the care of the tender U.S.S. TONOPAH, and on November 1, 1915, the arrival of the first ship built as a submarine tender, the U.S.S. FULTON (AS–1). (8) On June 21, 1916, Commander Yeates Stirling assumed the command of the newly designated Naval Submarine Base New London, the New London Submarine Flotilla, and the Submarine School; (9) In the 100 years since the arrival of the first submarines to the base, Naval Submarine Base New London has grown to occupy more than 680 acres along the east side of the Thames River, with more than 160 major facilities, 15 nuclear submarines, and more than 70 tenant commands and activities, including the Submarine Learning Center, Naval Submarine School, the Naval Submarine Medical Research Laboratory, the Naval Undersea Medical Institute, and the newly established Undersea Warfighting Development Center. (10) In addition to being the site of the first submarine base in the United States, Connecticut was home to the foremost submarine manufacturers of the time, the Lake Torpedo Boat Company in Bridgeport and the Electric Boat Company in Groton, which later became General Dynamics Electric Boat. (11) General Dynamics Electric Boat, its talented workforce, and its Connecticut-based and nationwide network of suppliers have delivered more than 200 submarines from its current location in Groton, Connecticut, including the first nuclear-powered submarine, the U.S.S. NAUTILUS (SSN 571), and nearly half of the nuclear submarines ever built by the United States. (12) The Submarine Force Library and Museum, located adjacent to Naval Submarine Base New London in Groton, Connecticut, is the only submarine museum operated by the United States Navy and today serves as the primary repository for artifacts, documents, and photographs relating to the bold and courageous history of the Submarine Force and highlights as its core exhibit the Historic Ship NAUTILUS (SSN 571) following her retirement from service. (13) Reflecting the close ties between Connecticut and the Navy that began with the gift of land that established the base, the State of Connecticut has set aside $40,000,000 in funding for critical infrastructure investments to support the mission of the base, including construction of a new dive locker building, expansion of the Submarine Learning Center, and modernization of energy infrastructure. (14) On September 29, 2015, Connecticut Governor Dannel Malloy designated October 2015 through October 2016 as Connecticut's Submarine Century, a year-long observance that celebrates 100 years of submarine activity in Connecticut, including the Town of Groton's distinction as the Submarine Capital of the World, to coincide with the centennial anniversary of the establishment of Naval Submarine Base New London and the Naval Submarine School. (15) Whereas Naval Submarine Base New London still proudly proclaims its motto of The First and Finest (16) Congressman Higgins’ statement before Congress in 1912 that Connecticut stands ready, as she always has, to bear her part of the burdens of the national defense (b) Sense of Congress Congress— (1) commends the longstanding dedication and contribution to the Navy and submarine force by the people of Connecticut, both through the initial deed of gift that established what would become Naval Submarine Base New London and through their ongoing commitment to support the mission of the base and the Navy personnel assigned to it; (2) honors the submariners who have trained and served at Naval Submarine Base New London throughout its history in support of the Nation’s security and undersea superiority; (3) recognizes the contribution of the industry and workforce of Connecticut in designing, building, and sustaining the Navy’s submarine fleet; and (4) encourages the recognition of Connecticut’s Submarine Century by Congress, the Navy, and the American people by honoring the contribution of the people of Connecticut to the defense of the United States and the important role of the submarine force in safeguarding the security of the United States for more than a century. 1090.

Sense of Congress regarding the importance of Panama City, Florida, to the history and future of the armed forces (a) Findings Congress makes the following findings: (1) On December 6, 1941—one day before the attack on Pearl Harbor—the War Department established Tyndall Field as an Army Air Force gunnery school in Panama City, Florida. (2) Tyndall Field was named in honor of native Floridian Lieutenant Francis B. Tyndall, who received the U.S. Air Force flying ace designation for his service in the First World War. (3) Tyndall Field became an important center for aerial gunnery training during the Second World War, hosting training missions using aircraft including A–33, 0–47, AT-6, Martin B-26 Marauders, and B–17 bombers. (4) On January 13, 1948, Tyndall Field became Tyndall Air Force Base and was an active site for air training and defense throughout the Cold War. (5) Tyndall AFB is now home to the First Air Force as well as the 325th Fighter Wing Headquarters and their F–22 Raptors. (6) The 325th Fighter Wing has been instrumental to national security at such crucial junctures as the Cuban Missile Crisis, throughout the Cold War, and more recently in intercepting unidentified aircraft and supporting anti-smuggling efforts. (7) On July 20, 1945, the Navy Mine Countermeasure Station was established in Panama City. (8) The Navy Mine Countermeasure Station developed into the Naval Support Activity Panama City (NSAPC), which has faithfully carried out its mission since its inception and continues to support the crucial efforts and important research of tenant command organizations such as the Naval Surface Warfare Center: Panama City Division (NSWC PCD) and the Navy Experimental Diving Unit (NEDU). (9) Research performed at NSWC PCD has been integral to equipping the Navy with the personnel and technology necessary to maintaining its status as the world’s greatest and most technologically advanced. (10) NSWC PCD’s newest facility, the Littoral Warfare Research Facility, is one of the Navy’s major research, development, test, and evaluation laboratories and where standards for weapons integration on Littoral Combat Ships are often developed. (11) NEDU is a global hub of research, development, and testing for undersea operations. (12) During the Second World War, the Wainwright Shipyard in Panama City built over 100 vessels for the war effort and employed over 15,000 people. (13) Panama City’s shipbuilding legacy continues as home to one of today’s most prolific domestic shipbuilders, Eastern Shipbuilding. (14) The Department of Defense is the largest employer in Panama City, where many of the residents and their relatives have proudly served in the Armed Forces for generations. (b) Sense of Congress Congress— (1) commends the longstanding dedication and contribution to the Armed Forces by the people of Panama City, both through the legacy of naval shipbuilding and through their ongoing commitment to support the mission of Panama City’s military installations and the personnel assigned to them; (2) honors the members of the Armed Forces who have trained and served at the several military installations in and around Panama City; (3) recognizes the contribution of the industry and workforce of Panama City to naval shipbuilding; and (4) encourages the recognition of the importance of Panama City to the history of the Armed Forces by Congress, the Air Force, the Navy, and the American people by honoring the contribution of the people of Panama City to the defense of the United States. 1094.

Sense of Congress on United States policy and strategy in Afghanistan (a) Findings Congress finds the following: (1) The United States continues to have vital national security interests in ensuring that Afghanistan is a stable, sovereign country. (2) President Obama signed a Strategic Partnership Agreement and a Bilateral Security Agreement with the President of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan, which commits the United States to the long-term security of, and defense cooperation with, the Government of Afghanistan and designates Afghanistan as a major non-NATO ally (3) The unity government in Afghanistan, led by President Ghani and Chief Executive Abdullah, should be applauded for their continued leadership and commitment to Afghanistan’s stability and security. (4) Stability and security in Afghanistan reinforces stability and security in the region. (5) The best long-term guarantor of stability and security in Afghanistan is a stable unity government and a capable Afghan National Defense and Security Forces (ANDSF). (6) The President’s current policy is to draw down from 9,800 to 5,500 United States troops by January 1, 2017. As the recent commander in Afghanistan, General John Campbell, testified to the Senate Armed Services Committee, the 5,500 [U.S. troops] plan was developed primarily around counterterrorism. There’s very limited train-advise-and-assist...in those numbers. To continue to build on the Afghan Security Forces, the gaps and seams in aviation, logistics, intelligence...we’d have to make some adjustments to that number. (7) The President’s policy of limiting the number of United States troops that the commander can employ in Afghanistan is hindering the effectiveness of the United States mission therein. (8) Further, at the current policy of 9,800 United States troops, the new commander of Operation Resolute Support in Afghanistan, General John Mick (9) General John Campbell also stated …Afghan shortfalls will persist beyond 2016. Capability gaps still exist in fixed and rotary-wing aviation, combined arms operations, intelligence collection and dissemination, and maintenance. (10) General John Campbell further stated I have the authority to protect coalition members against any insurgents…to attack the Taliban just because they’re Taliban, I do not have that authority. (11) The Taliban have made territorial gains and are holding terrain in key geographic areas in Afghanistan, including in Helmand Province. (12) The Taliban held the city of Kunduz, Afghanistan, which is the first time the Taliban have held a major city in Afghanistan in 14 years. (13) The Haqqani Network, a designated foreign terrorist organization aligned with the Taliban, is the most lethal group on the battlefield in Afghanistan, and continues to provide safe haven to al-Qaeda. (14) The Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) has established an affiliate in Afghanistan. (15) Since the death of the Taliban’s leader, Mullah Mohammad Omar, and the ascendance of Mullah Akhtar Mansoor and Saraj Haqqani, head of the Haqqani Network, to Taliban leadership, the Taliban have not engaged in political reconciliation negotiations with the Government of Afghanistan. (16) The President has the statutory, legal authority to strike the Taliban and the Haqqani Network. (b) Sense of Congress It is the sense of Congress that— (1) the President should authorize at least 9,800 United States troops to continue the train, advise, and assist and counterterrorism missions in Afghanistan after 2016; (2) the President should provide the United States commander in Afghanistan with the authority to unilaterally strike the Taliban and the Haqqani Network; (3) the President should provide additional resources to strike the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) in Afghanistan; (4) the President should provide the United States commander in Afghanistan the authority to conduct the train, advise, and assist mission below the corps level of the Afghan National Defense and Security Forces (ANDSF); (5) the United States should provide United States Armed Forces lift and close air support to ANDSF units until the ANDSF has a fully capable, organic lift and close air support capability and capacity; (6) the United States should provide monetary and advisory support for 352,000 ANDSF personnel and 30,000 Afghan Local Police, including intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance support, through 2018; (7) it should continue to be a top priority to provide United States Armed Forces deployed to Afghanistan with necessary medical, force protection, and combat search and rescue support; and (8) United States military personnel who are tasked with the mission of providing combat search and rescue support, casualty evacuation, and medical support should not be counted as part of any force management level limitation on the number of United States ground forces in Afghanistan. 1216.
