USS DWIGHT D. EISENHOWER The Mission We in the Navy have a pride which has evolved from attitudes and convictions steeped in honored tradition. This pride is a direct result of the incom- parable experience of living and fighting on the sea -- a dangerous and unforgiving environment which demands from all of us a high degree of personal and family sacrifice. It includes the spirit of adven- ture in travel and living overseas. Most important, it is the experience known to every Navy man and woman of being on watch around the clock in the service of our country and of being a shipmate to all past, present and future Sailors. -- Navy Policy Book The vital economic, political and military inter- ests ofthe United States are truly global in nature and scope. In many respects these interests are located across broad oceans, and to a great extent they intersect those of current and emergent re- gional powers. It is in the world's littorals where the naval service, operating from sea bases in inter- national waters, can influence events ashore in support of our interests. e Naval forces are particularly well-suited to the entire range of military operations in support of our national strategy. They continue the historic role of naval forces engaged in preventive diplomacy and otherwise supporting our policies overseas. -- Forward From the Sea 7655 Dwgdz D. Efaewawm mm at Hmm, 746-zeeq.
