Lost Unconventional Warfare Lessons from the Yugoslav Front
ISBN: 9781500568320 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 52 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. During the early years of the Cold War, the United States Army developed the new doctrine of Unconventional Warfare. This work focused on U.S. soldiers working through and with indigenous guerrilla units to achieve tactical successes in support of the larger theater campaign. The early doctrine writers failed to incorporate three key lessons from the guerrilla war fought in Yugoslavia (1941-1945). The lessons were the selection and employment of the right people as advisors, the effective employment of guerrillas (who have a different agenda) and setting the conditions for effective...

Leadership in the Shenandoah Valley and North Africa: Historical Studies in Mission Command
ISBN: 9781507854501 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 150 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Mission command, as outlined in Army Doctrine Reference Publication (ADRP) 6-0, Mission Command, is the contemporary philosophy through which army commanders combine mission, intent, and subordinate initiative to win in unified land operations. Though not known to them as mission command, prominent leaders such as Field Marshal Erwin Rommel and Major General Thomas J. "Stonewall" Jackson used similar concepts. This study specifically examines how these leaders employed three of the six principles outlined in current mission command doctrine. They are: (1) build cohesive teams through mutual...

Will-to-Fight: Japan's Imperial Institution and the U.S. Strategy to End World War II
ISBN: 9781502926128 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 60 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Sun Tzu asserts that success is not winning every battle fought, but subduing the enemy's will without fighting. Nevertheless, modern military thought fails to distinguish an enemy's will-to-fight from their means to do so, limiting the ways military leaders apply operational art, problem framing, and conflict termination in pursuit of strategic objectives. The author asserts that gaining and maintaining a position of relative advantage for favorable conflict resolution requires leaders to understand the enemy's will-to-fight with equal fidelity as their means. This study examines U.S....

The History of the Airborne Forward Air Controller in Vietnam
ISBN: 9781500830915 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 92 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The US Department of Defense predicts that ground forces of the future will wage tomorrow's wars by replacing large numbers of personnel and organic firepower for advanced technology and superior maneuverability. Those forces must be prepared to face an unconventional enemy who will operate in small, lethal units interspersed with the civilian population rather than facing coalition forces with massed formations. This scenario of blurred lines of battle and difficulty determining friend from foe resembles very closely what the US military faced in Vietnam. This book will address the successes...

Psychological Operations Supporting Counterinsurgency: 4th PSYOP Group in Vietnam
ISBN: 9781500452070 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 138 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Military and civilian agencies conducted Psychological Operations on an unprecedented scale during the Vietnam War. Emphasis on PSYOP from MACV and the U.S. Mission resulted in the creation of an interagency organization providing direction to the overall PSYOP effort. The military PSYOP force supporting MACV underwent a series of organizational changes over seven years as the force struggled to meet ever-increasing demands, but never reached their full potential in Vietnam. Difficulties in measuring effectiveness combined with a lack of understanding of PSYOP techniques and capabilities more...

The Denuclearization of North Korea: The 1944 Agreed Framework from Penning to Present and Alternative Options
ISBN: 9781500481018 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 124 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The denuclearization of North Korea, a formalized policy objective of the United States since the signing of the 1994 Agreed Framework, is the singularly most important objective of Washington regarding Pyongyang. The Agreed Framework is an accord that provides North Korea two light-water reactors in exchange for the elimination of its capabilities to produce nuclear weapons. However, many debates have arisen over the soundness of this policy option. The purpose of this thesis is to assess four different policy options for achieving the permanent or long-term denuclearization of North Korea:...

Savages in a Civilized War: The Native Americans as French Allies in the Seven Years War, 1754-1763
ISBN: 9781502809773 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 140 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The Seven Years' War was the first truly global war but it will forever be recognized in North America as the French and Indian War because of the extensive use of Native American allies by the French from 1754-1758. These irregular forces were needed to offset the massive manpower advantage the British possessed in North America, 1.5 million British colonists to 55,000 French colonists. This book examines the complex relationship the French had with their Indian allies who were spread throughout their territorial holdings in North America. It examines French and Indian diplomatic relations...

Development of Amphibious Doctrine
ISBN: 9781500798390 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 156 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Although the U.S. had conducted amphibious operations since the Revolutionary War, it was not until after the Spanish-American War that the military services attempted to codify procedures in doctrine. Early emphasis focused on command relationships and the responsibilities of commanders, eventually expanding to incorporate operational concepts, tactical techniques, and the necessary equipment. In an environment characterized by inter-service rivalry, as well as monetary and materiel constraints, dedicated individuals and organizations overcame numerous obstacles to develop, practice, and...

Agricultural Manpower Shortage in the World War II: Analysis of a Historical Operational Environment
ISBN: 9781500371531 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 276 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. What caused the agricultural manpower shortage in World War II? Historians have proffered a variety of explanations that attribute linear causality to a handful of independent variables. No scholar, however, has attempted to study the manpower shortage in its full causal complexity. This paper, following the muse of analytic eclecticism, assembles a variety of cutting-edge political-science scholarship to develop a modified version of the Institutional Analysis Framework. I apply this framework to the study of the agricultural manpower shortage during World War II. I argue that the...

Basing and Operational Reach
ISBN: 9781500608569 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 84 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Basing is a critical component of American warfare, and the expeditionary posture of the United States military poses challenges to operational planners and logisticians alike. Force projection is a key requirement for the US Army, and the use of basing directly speaks its success. From the "iron mountains" of Operation Desert Storm, to forward operating bases along the zone of separation in Bosnia-Herzegovina, to forward logistics bases and combat outposts of Iraq and Afghanistan, basing provides a critical position to deploy, stage, project, and fight forces. A lack of clear guidance for...

Teutoburg Forest, Little Bighorn, and Maiwand: Why Superior Military Forces Sometimes Fail
ISBN: 9781505360080 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 142 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Usually in history it seems that the technologically advanced society has a greater advantage in warfare than more primitive societies. For most battles this seems to hold true; however, there are exceptions to this rule. This book examines three different battles in history where a primitive, tribal force was able to decisively defeat a better-equipped, more advanced army. Following the introduction the second chapter focuses on the Romans versus Germanic tribes at the Battle of Teutoburg Forest; the third chapter investigates Custer and the Battle of the Little Bighorn; and the fourth...

United States Cybersecurity Strategy, Policy, and Organization: Poorly Postured to Cope with a Post-9/11 Security Environment
ISBN: 9781500750244 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 140 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Is United States cybersecurity strategy, policy, and organization postured to cope with the post-9/11 security environment? Through an exhaustive review of recurring and stand-alone strategic cybersecurity strategy and policy documents and a detailed assessment of the United States cyber organization within the Department of Homeland Security, Department of Defense, and Department of Justice, the United States is indeed vulnerable to a cyber attack. Despite the recent emphasis on cyber attacks against private and governmental organizations, the genesis of American interest and awareness of...

Combat Engineers of World War II: Lessons on Training and Mobilization
ISBN: 9781511615457 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 108 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. United States Army combat engineers were not properly trained to conduct their mission during World War II. Research of combat engineer training and operations during the interwar period and subsequently in the Pacific, North African, and European theaters revealed the extraordinary efforts required both to train new engineers and to develop selectees into capable combat engineer units. This research demonstrates that significant reductions to military personnel levels and readiness during the interwar period required a hasty fielding of forces in wartime that were not trained to previously...

The United States Army and Large Cities Prior to the Global War On Terror
ISBN: 9781503219014 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 70 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The United States Army has relied on a variety of doctrinal manuals for urban operations over the past seventy years. During this period, it conducted operations in Manila, Berlin, Tokyo, Seoul, Saigon, and Panama City, among other cities. While U.S. Army keystone doctrine changed many times to reflect new strategic contexts, urban doctrine remained relatively static. In particular, U.S. Army urban doctrine has never addressed effectively the unique requirements and characteristics of operations in large cities (those with a population over 750,000). Analysis of the history of U.S. Army...

Key Considerations for Irregular Security Forces in Counterinsurgency
ISBN: 9781500703936 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 138 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Counterinsurgents have raised and employed irregular security forces in many campaigns over the last century. Irregular security forces are indigenous forces, not part of the regular police or military organizations of the host nation, that are recruited locally to provide a basic level of security in a given area. Irregular security forces, when used in conjunction with all other available capabilities, contribute to, but do not in and of themselves, ensure success. While irregular security forces can be effective in conducting local security, intelligence gathering, surveillance and other...

First Kansas Colored Volunteers: Contributions of Black Union In the Trans-Mississippi West
ISBN: 9781500136826 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 122 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Over one hundred and eighty thousand black men fought for the Union during America's Civil War. From infantrymen, to artillerist and cavalry soldiers, these soldiers combined to form one hundred and sixty-six Union regiments. On 29 October 1862 at Island Mound, Missouri, the First Kansas Colored Volunteers, an infantry regiment comprised mainly of blacks from Kansas and Missouri, became the first black regiment to experience combat during the Civil War. Their courage and outstanding performance in battle, as recorded, are unquestioned. What have been omitted from research thus far are their...

The Mentorship Course of Action: Increasing African American Interest in the Maneuver Branches
ISBN: 9781511540223 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 74 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The maneuver branches have been accessing a relatively low percentage of African American Second Lieutenants in comparison to other branches of the Army. This trend is significant because in the current Army system, a lack of proportional African American participation in the two largest maneuver branches, Infantry and Armor, means that there will likely be a dearth of African Americans holding senior Army leadership positions in the future. This study proposes that the maneuver branches implement a formal mentoring program at the pre-commission sources to address African American bias...
