2. NATO's navies can be integrated into a single striking force with a minimum of delay and with considerable efficiency. 3. The American Navy should operate more frequently in North- jern European waters where the wind and sea proved to be tin. predictable and caused delays in operation to better familiarize it self with conditions there.

4. The gravest problem still to be unsnarled is that of communica- tions, both ashore and at sea. Besides demonstrating that NATO's northernmost partners can count on strong backing in a crisis, Mainbrace is bound to have had a psychological impact on Sweden, traditionally neutral, who has re fused to join either Eastern or Western military alliances.
