admiral against agencies asked assumed attack budgets civil command comments confusion defense department distinct event forces foreign generals given great homeland less likely mission natural northern process protect provide reflection reluctance seeing separate stands stretched support terrorist threats
Northern Command's mission to protect the homeland against foreign threats is separate and distinct from its mission to provide support to civil agencies in the event of a terrorist attack of catastrophic proportions. So part of the confusion you're seeing is the natural shaking-out process as the Defense Department stands up a new command and adopts a new mission that most generals assumed with great reluctance in the first place, given that their forces and budgets were already stretched thin. In that sense, Admiral Keating's comments were probably less about someone gunning to take the lead, and more a reflection of how much support Northern Command will likely be asked to provide in the event of a real catastrophe. David Heyman
