From LTG Jeffrey W. Talleys page: RECENT AND UPCOMING CHANGES The regionally aligned forces, or RAF, concept is an example of one of the latest major changes undertaken by the Army. Under RAF, forces are aligned with a geographic combatant commander on a full-time basis with the goal of deterring crises through partnerships rather than deploying Soldiers in response to a crisis. Simply put, the vision of RAF is to transform the Army into a regionally engaged, agile, culturally savvy force capable of global response. In addition to the RAF efforts, the Army is in the process of transitioning from an Army at war to an Army of preparation for rapid response. This preparation involves a great deal of focus on the command supply discipline and command deployment discipline programs. At the same time, the Army is downsizing to meet budget constraints, meaning that units will have to meet mission requirements with fewer resources. 1.usa.gov/1BFC7Pa
