Marine Corps Equities in the Arctic
ISBN: 9781508924272 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 36 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Increased human activity in the Arctic will bring an increased need for maritime operations, ranging from peacetime search and rescue to sea control in times of conflict. Economic activity may outpace the ability of the US Navy and Coast Guard to develop capabilities to operate in the Arctic. Presently there is a very limited US icebreaker capability and no surface combatant ships are reinforced for operations in a sea-ice environment. The Marine Corps may execute a sea control mission in the Arctic to make up for the sea services capability gaps, operating in the straits and narrows that...

African American Sailors: Their Role in Helping the Union to Win the Civil War
ISBN: 9781500759452 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 46 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Since the very beginning of American history, African Americans have served alongside their white counterparts in virtually every major armed conflict on the high seas. This was especially true during the Civil War. The Union Navy continued to experience a shortage of available manpower to sufficiently man its fleet of 600 plus ships. Life aboard naval vessels was particularly harsh and naval recruiters did not hesitate to enlist African Americans. The African American sailor saw his service as an opportunity to rise above the status of social discrimination and segregation. Because of the...

Seabees: National Instrument of Power Projection
ISBN: 9781511537124 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 48 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Seabees are versatile instruments of power projection because of their capabilities to execute disaster relief operations, engineering civic action, and overseas construction that contribute to National Security Strategy's (NSS) efforts in diplomatic, information, military, economic, development, strategic communications, and homeland security. Unfortunately, the recent reduction in Seabee force structure is detrimental to national security. Further reduction would create capacity degradation with direct impact to US power projection. Degraded Seabees will result in a capability gap that...

Commander's Intent of Major General Joseph Hooker during the Chancellorsville Campaign
ISBN: 9781500922443 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 58 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Did "Fighting Joe" Hooker of the army of the Potomac lose his nerve during the Chancellorsville Campaign of 1863? Perhaps history has failed to recognize Major General Joseph Hooker's true commander's intent for this campaign. Hooker's intent was simple: maneuver forces to Lee's flank and rear in order to force a withdrawal of Confederate troops from Fredericksburg. Hooker had no intention of engaging in a "risky confrontation" with General Robert E. Lee and the army of northern Virginia. Hooker's plan would fail due to his own steadfast belief in the ability of his plan to force Lee to...

ISBN: 9781511540230 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 32 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. U.S. amphibious warfare began its development in the early 1900's, became a real capability in World War II, and today provides the nation with a means to achieve its policy objectives with an ability to project military power from the sea. During World War II, the first real test of this amphibious assault capability came at the beginning of the Central Pacific drive on Tarawa in 1943 and culminated with the final amphibious operation in the Pacific at Okinawa, some 350 miles south of mainland Japan. Ultimately, the U.S. military's tactics, techniques, and procedures for conducting...

The Enlightenment, the Great Awakening, and the frontier were tremendously strong forces in influencing the American Revolution. Acting in concert, these forces made a Revolution inevitable. The Enlightenment directly influenced revolutionary thoughts. Ideas of natural rights, sensibility, and equality stemmed from enlightened thought. The Great Awakening and religious revivals of the mid- eighteenth century brought hope and salvation to the commoner. This evangelical style religion upset the formal churches and institutions and undermined existing church authority. The frontier offered vast,...

Improving Shaping Efforts in Africa's Maghreb and Sahel
ISBN: 9781511540285 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 36 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Shaping efforts In the Maghreb and Sahel are extensive and commendable but lack appropriate interagency synchronization and an appropriate balance between the development and defense approaches. In order to achieve greater success in this critical region of Africa, the United States must adapt to the asymmetric environment, empower the DoS to lead and execute foreign policy, decrease the perceived militarization of foreign policy, and adjust within DoD to address the likely challenges of today and tomorrow.

The Finnish Campaigns: Failure of Soviet Operational Art in World War II
ISBN: 9781505366839 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 36 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The Soviet Union is well-known for its development of operations as the linkage between tactics and strategy, and its application as operational art. The Red Army's development of deep battle during the interwar years and its refinement during World War II is an exceptional example of operational art and a testament to the genius of the Soviet Union's military theorists. Soviet-style operational art grew from an ideological concept at a heoretical level, to a political controlled strategic doctrine, emerged as an offensive biased operational mindset, and, if Finland is overlooked, resulted in...

Shared Blame (Inertial Leadership, Indiscipline, and Horse Blinders): The Failure of the "Other" Confederate Cavalry Brigades During the Gettysburg Ca
ISBN: 9781500368814 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 42 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The Confederate Cavalry that remained with the main body of the Army of Northern Virginia during the initial days of the Gettysburg Campaign failed to assume Stuart's eastern flank reconnaissance and security mission when he was unable to perform it. Evidence shows that there is shared responsibility for this failure among commanders at the brigade, division, corps, and army levels. Much of the blame of their failure to perform reconnaissance and security is placed on the Confederate Cavalry Commander, J. E. B. Stuart. What is often overlooked are the actions of the cavalry formations that...

Cross-Domain Synergy: Warfare in the 21st Century
ISBN: 9781511557115 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 34 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Today's strategic environment is dynamic and rapidly changing. Warfighting domains, including air, land, and sea, where the United States has dominated for almost one half-century, are increasingly being tested by traditional states, as well as non-state actors. Globalization has facilitated the ability of less capable nations to garner critical warfighting technology. The parity in technology between nations at war is no longer as great. This leveled the playing field and allowed for non-state actors to have dramatic influence on powerful nations, which has not been the case in the past....

Some of the darkest moments in those conflicts have come from the ethical failings of some of our service members. The Marine Corps prides itself on maintaining high ethical standards; however, we are not immune to these failings - as seen by the body desecration video and SS flag photos in Afghanistan. These failings have occurred during times of high operational tempo and have caused Marine Corps leadership, the public, and civilian leaders to question our ethical foundations and training. What can the Marine...

The post-Cold War era presented to the nations of the world the opportunity to experience peace in a way that had not been enjoyed for decades, if not centuries.

Since the U.S first recognized the state of Israel in 1948 U.S.-Israel relations have been close.
