Establishment of the Department of Defense (DoD) Commission on 
Roles and Missions of the Armed Forces

AGENCY: Department of Defense.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Commission on Roles and Missions of the Armed Forces is 
being established in consonance with the public interest and in 
accordance with the provision of Public Law 92-463, the ``Federal 
Advisory Committee Act.'' The Commission was directed to be established

    The Commission will provide advice to the Secretary of the Defense, 
the secretaries of the military departments, the heads of other DoD 
components and the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and House 
of Representatives, by providing an independent review of the roles and 
missions of the Armed Forces. It will review the efficacy and 
appropriateness for the post-Cold War Era of the current allocations 
among the Armed Forces of roles, missions and functions; evaluate and 
report on alternative allocations of their roles, missions and 
functions; make recommendations for changes in the current definition 
and distributions of those roles, missions, and functions.
    The Commission will be composed of a Chairman and 6 Commissioners 
who will be appointed by the Secretary of Defense from among private 
United States Citizens with appropriate and diverse military, 
organizational, and management experiences and historical perspective.
    The initial meeting of the Commission will be on May 24, 1994, from 
1 p.m. until 6 p.m. at Suite 1200 F, 1100 Wilson Avenue, Rosslyn, VA.
