Michael Auslin's AEI Report on The Indo-Pacific Commons

Michael Auslin's produced a superb bit of thinking on how the US should conduct itself in what he calls the "Indo-Pacific" Commons.  The calls for enhanced naval presence in this part of the world have become a relentless drumbeat; we cannot ignore it, we cannot bury our heads in the sand and simply dole out equal cuts to each Armed Service as we seek to get our financial house in order.  We must properly fund that element of military power most closely related to protecting and sustaining our position of global leadership.
