Post-Cold War Defense Reform: Lessons Learned in Europe and the United States
ISBN: 9781574885774 / Angielski / Twarda / 1 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Beginning with the landslide political changes in Europe in the early 1990s, politicians and military planners started to contemplate the possible effects on military postures.
