At these meetings, the Defense Science Board Task Force will focus on "out-of- the-box" thinking and scenarios to assess vulnerabilities to human life, economy, military power, domestic political morale and stability, external political influence and prestige. The Task Force will provide illustrative scenarios and suggested methods for ongoing threat and vulnerability assessments, particularly during Operation Enduring Freedom.
