What a Navy Is For?
A navy’s purposes deal with the movement and delivery of goods and services at sea;
in contrast, an army’s purpose is to purchase and possess real estate.
Thus, a navy is in the links business, while an army is in the nodes business.
Seen that way, a navy performs one or more of four functions and no others:
At sea, it (1) assures that our own goods and services are safe;
(2) that an enemy’s are not.
From the sea, it (3) guarantees safe delivery of goods and services ashore;
(4) prevents delivery ashore by an enemy navy.
… the seat of purpose is on the land!

“Why study tactics? It is the sum of the art and
science if the actual application of combat
power. It is the soul of our profession.”
Vice Admiral Arthur K. Cebrowski
