PHASE III
(1 Dec - 1 Jan)
29. Deploy 6 transport squadrons to Europe.
30. Institute pacific blockade or naval blockade, as necessary.
31. Implement 6-division plan in Europe, as necessary.
32. Expand mobilization and take other military actions, as necessary.
NOTES:
1/ Contains representative major actions. Depending on situation and political guidance, numerous supplementary actions or changes would be undertaken. For example, a permanent increase in the US military establishment could be undertaken in lieu of partial mobilization; in addition, involuntary extension of current enlistments could be considered.
2/ It is important to note that mobilization and deployment schedules are dependent on basic decision to declare national emergency. Lead-time of necessary preparatory actions before and after M-day will govern timing of ultimate operations. If basic decision on declaration of national emergency is deferred, corresponding deferrals of most events would result.
3/ Deployment of TAC squadrons could come earlier, in connection with implementation of airlift.
4/ Could be executed at any time after 15 November.
