In response, Union commanders who were merely to protect lines of communication...

The enactment of the Post 9/11 GI Bill has made this a more urgent problem for two reasons. First, a larger number of servicemembers and veterans are using these benefits at for-profit colleges. Second, as...

Government Neutrality Regarding Religion
ISBN: 9781503144019 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 42 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. As national headlines highlight ethical breeches at the very top of our military structure, others have documented a concern about undue religious persuasion in the military. In the wake of alleged religious infractions, Air Force Instruction 1-1 was published with a paragraph entitled, "Government Neutrality Regarding Religion." This paragraph discourages leaders from openly practicing and referencing religion. There seems to be a disconnect-we are attempting to reduce religious discourse and effects as incidents of moral indiscipline rise. Our history documents religious influence in the...

"Worthy of His Sufferings": How Strategic Leaders Learned from Failure
ISBN: 9781503003149 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 36 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych.

How does a leader turn the psychological trauma of failure into an important learning experience that leads to personal growth? What leadership characteristics and actions are most important in recovering from a leadership failure? This paper examines these questions along...

For more than 2 decades, Somalia has been the prime example of a collapsed state, thus far resisting no fewer than 15 attempts to reconstitute a central government, while the 16th such undertaking, the current internationally-backed but struggling regime of the "Federal Republic of Somalia," just barely maintains a token presence in the capital and along the southeastern littoral-and that due only to the presence of a more than 17,000-strong African Union peacekeeping force. In fact, for much of the period, insurgents spearheaded by the Harakat al-Shabaab al-Mujahideen (Movement of Warrior...
