The Global Response Force (GRF) is built for rapid response to unforeseen or, more specifically, unplanned operations. This study illustrates a method for determining the best access strategies given constraints in aircraft, intermediate staging bases, operational capabilities, and other factors. The study applies this method to each geographic combatant command and develops specific, tailored strategies for each.
