A propos de cet article

iv, 23, [3] pages. Endnotes. Some slight wear to the cover edges.

Focusing primarily on the Army, he highlights the requirements associated with combat operations against terrorists, accelerating transformation and the new emphasis on homeland security and force protection. At the same time, he points out that the Army and the other Services must remain involved worldwide in day-to-day assurance, dissuasion, and deterrence activities; execution of peace operations and other smaller-scale contingencies; and remaining ready for other major combat operations. Dr. Crane asserts that these obligations require the Army to reshape and expand its force structure. The author joined SSI in September 2000 after 26 years of military service that concluded with 9 years as Professor of History at the U.S. Military Academy.…
