ISBN: 9781497522282 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 148 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Characterized by some authors as a rehearsal for the First World War, the Russo- Japanese War was arguably the world's first modern war. During this war, the lethality of weapons on the 20th Century battlefield was clearly demonstrated. Recording the events of the Russo-Japanese War were military and civilian observers from every major power of the time. These observers wrote voluminous accounts of the war that clearly illustrated this new battlefield destructiveness. The research question of this thesis is what tactical lessons were available to the observer nations of the Russo-Japanese War...

ISBN: 9781507579244 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 228 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Future American military operations, be they high-intensity combat, peacekeeping, peace enforcement, counter-insurgency, or otherwise, are likely to require multinational contributions. This requirement is due to several possible considerations, to include limited American military resources or the need to demonstrate legitimacy for an operation through international participation. America's first opportunity to lead a coalition as a superpower occurred during the 1950-1953 Korean War. Its coalition faced a war it did not want. Additionally, the coalition included multinational components...

ISBN: 9781502877352 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 80 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book examines how several ancient states dealt with the issues of military recruitment, how they differed and ultimately how these varying approaches met the needs of their countries.

In a constantly changing world threatened by the likelihood of terrorist acts, the American people need military leaders who clearly demonstrate an understanding of American core values, and who are both competent and morally focused.

The process of developing leadership styles, however, is not easy and it requires a...

The French-Algerian War and FM 3-24, Counterinsurgency: A Comparison
ISBN: 9781500383039 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 128 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Many aspects of counterinsurgency (COIN) operations in today's contemporary operating environment suggest historical review of previous COIN experiences can provide critical insight. Such reviews tend to fail to be incorporated into doctrine as time and era change reduced the perceived relevance of previous experiences. Development of COIN doctrine requires a detailed study of available insurgency experiences to enable the U.S. military to apply the crucial principles of COIN to current threat models. An example of an army which struggled to develop COIN doctrine as it combated an insurgency...

ISBN: 9781505408690 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 310 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book uses a comparative analysis of the Malayan Emergency, the American experience in Vietnam, and Operation Iraqi Freedom to examine the role and effectiveness of artillery units in complex counterinsurgency environments. Through this analysis, four factors emerge which impact the employment of artillery units: the counterinsurgency effort's requirement for indirect fires, constraints and limitations on indirect fires, the counterinsurgency effort's force organization, and the conversion cost of non-standard roles for artillery units. In conclusion, the book offers five broadly...

Coercion theory centers on an actor's ability to influence the decision making of an opponent. This monograph examines military operations in Libya 2011, Operations Unified Protector and Odyssey Dawn, through the lens of coercion theory. It seeks to answer the question: if the United States and its allies attempted to apply coercion theory against Gaddafi preceding and during military operations, why did he seemingly exhibit no behavioral changes prior to his death? This monograph purports that even though Operations Odyssey Dawn and Unified Protector succeeded in supporting the removal of...

Beginning of the End: The Leadership of SS Obersturmbannfuhrer Jochen Peiper
ISBN: 9781500162641 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 150 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. SS Obersturmbannfuhrer Jochen Peiper was one of Germany's most colorful military leaders of World War II with an audacious reputation. The name Peiper will always be linked to the Malmedy Massacre, the death of Belgian civilians and more than seventy American soldiers, but there is still a myth around Peiper. Why was a twenty-nine year old Waffen-SS officer chosen to lead the German spearhead unit during the Battle of the Bulge in December 1944? Peiper was a special leader within the one of the most elite Waffen-SS divisions, the Leibstandarte-SS Adolf Hitler. Peiper was charismatic and...

Blasphemy: How the U.S. Government Practiced a type of Operational Art to Defend Latin America during the Cold War
ISBN: 9781500608651 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 78 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Two centuries of philosophy and war have informed the latest evolution of the definitions of strategy and operational art defined in the Department of Defense's Joint Publication 1-02. By harmonizing the relationship between strategy and operational art, doctrine logically links the organization and employment of military forces to strategy. However, joint doctrine fails to identify where the instruments of diplomacy, information, and economic power are organized, employed, and integrated through ends, ways, and means to achieve national objectives. By replacing the term "military forces"...

Leonard Wood, Operational Artist of Scheming Careerist
ISBN: 9781500609870 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 58 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Leonard Wood conducted a variety of civil and military operations as the Military Governor of Cuba and the Military Governor of the Moro Provence in the Philippines. Critics generally praise his military governorship of Cuba, and condemn his military governorship of the Moro Province. The logic these critics use is that Wood was successful in Cuba because he did not use violent military actions to pacify the Cubans, and that he was not successful in the Moro Province because many of his actions to pacify the Moros were violent, and frequently brutal. Critics cite Wood's desire for career...
