The threat to the United States remains complex, ambiguous and real. Ever since the United States military response in the aftermath to the 9/11 attacks, the U.S. Military has become the subject matter expert in counterterrorism operations while engaging in Afghanistan, Iraq, the Horn of Africa and other places around the globe. While major advances in preparation, planning, funding and training in support of counterterrorism operations have been achieved by the U.S. Law Enforcement Community over the last decade, there remains a necessity and opportunity for greater synergy between the U.S. Military and U.S. Law Enforcement for counterterrorism operations within homeland. The recommendation in this paper will be to design a model where military representatives have greater involvement with U.S. civilian law enforcement in counterterrorism operations within the United States. The U.S. military, specifically Special Operations Forces, possesses a pool of talent in advanced counterterrorism operations that is not being utilized by civilian law enforcement because of the current law enforcement models and the traditional interpretation by the U.S. military of their role in continental United States operations.
