Book excerpt: The first Stryker Brigade, touted as the centerpiece of the post-Cold War Army, underwent a rigorous series of comprehensive tests and exercises over the short span of three-and-a-half years, a period in which our country became embroiled in a war against Global Terrorism. While this publication examines Army Transformation and the development of the Stryker, it focuses primarily on the brigade's combat operations in Iraq from November 2003 to October 2004. The brigade's performance in combat provides the reader with dramatic insights into conflict as well as the Army's ongoing transformation efforts.

Download or read book From Transformation to Combat: the First Stryker Brigade at War - the Test of Combat in Iraq in 2003 - 2004, Mosul, Baghdad, an Najaf, Tall Afar, Carter Ham written by U. S. Military and published by . This book was released on 2018-01-14 with total page 95 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between November 2003 and October 2004, after four years of planning and preparation, the Army's first Stryker-equipped force received its baptism by combat on the plains of Iraq. The deployment of the 2d Infantry Division's 3d Brigade challenged more than just the Army's ability to field a new type of combat unit or a new piece of equipment. It sought to showcase and validate new information-age technologies, doctrines, and organizations that could serve as models for the future transformation of the service's fighting forces. Testing the Army's very ability to make key cultural changes in the way that it trained, led, fought, and supplied its forces in the field, the new brigade would have to prove more agile, more flexible, and more deadly than its predecessors.This study explores the origin, development, and initial combat experience of this unique unit, the first installment of an "Interim Force" that would pave the way toward the Army of the future. From the training grounds of Fort Lewis, Washington, to the battlegrounds of Mosul and Tall Afar, Iraq, the odyssey of the "3-2" tested the very premise of the Army's initial Transformation strategy. This preliminary account provides a firsthand field assessment of that ambitious effort and should encourage further thought about our continuing efforts to prepare the Army for its role in an increasingly turbulent world.Contents * A Need for Change * Establishing a Process * Step One: Reorganize, Train, and Equip * Step Two: Fielding Stryker * Step Three: Operational Readiness * Step Four: Taking the Field * The Test of Combat: November 2003-November 2004 * Task Force Olympia * Initial Operations * Task Force Arrow: An Najaf * Operation Road Warrior: Baghdad * Tall Afar, Iraq * Mosul, Iraq * Relief in Place * Analysis * Bibliographical Note

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The evolutionary pace of the Army has increased as we deal with the ever changing operational environment-especially the challenges associated with responding to insurgent and terrorist attacks in Iraq and Afghanistan. Major Craig Triscari provides the first primer for tactical leaders to accommodate the complexities of transforming formations that are often in the final preparation stages for combat. His book is a timely guide to prevent commanders across the Army from recreating the wheel as they field and deploy the new modular brigades. The principles outlined are equally relevant for active and reserve components and are a good foundation for leaders subsequently designated to field the Future Combat System (FCS) force." Colonel Mike Rounds 1st SBCT Commander and Commander, JRTC Operations Group The only book that lays out today's brigade and below transformation process in plain English. If you are interested in knowing how to successfully transform your unit, this is the book that can help you understand the challenges you will have to face. Major Craig Triscari will take you through a process of transformation from start to finish using plain English so that the reader is not lost in military jargon. In order to make transformation easier, the book focuses on essential components of completing a transformation in a timely manner, while sustaining the war fighting skills that have made our units feared and respected throughout the world. This book was written with the specific intent that the reader can apply the ideas in this book to any period of transformation or reorganization within the Army. While it is impossible to put everything you will need to know about transformation in one source document, this book will build a solid base of fundamentals of who, what, when, where, and why we transform.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beginning in 2013, the U.S. Army began an effort to "engage regionally and respond globally." A central tenant of this strategy, building upon National strategic guidance, is the necessity to build partner capacity. Army units, through the regionally aligned forces concept, may find themselves conducting security force assistance (SFA) missions across the globe as a means to achieve these results. However, after examining the Army's SFA mission in Operation IRAQI FREEDOM from 2003-2010, it becomes apparent that institutional and organizational shortcomings plagued the Army's initial efforts in this critical aspect of the campaign. Many of these shortcomings remain in the Army today, particularly within the Army's core formation: the brigade combat team (BCT). This monograph examines the Army's role in conducting SFA in Iraq, drawing key lessons from the Army's experience there, and then provides recommendations on how the Army can better optimize the BCT to conduct SFA, while still retaining its core mission to fight and win America's wars.

This book was released on 2002 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historically, to deter and defeat major threats in Europe and Asia, the United States has relied on forward-deployed Army and Air Force forces, Navy and Marine Corps forces afloat, long-range aircraft in the continental United States (CONUS), prepositioned unit sets in key regions, and reinforcing units from CONUS. For short-warning crises in other regions, Marine Expeditionary Units, the 82nd Airborne Division, Special Operations Forces, and Air Force/Navy air would be combined as appropriate to provide a limited capability that has usually been sufficient for noncombat evacuations and other lesser contingencies. The United States has not had the ability to deploy large joint forces globally from North America in a matter of days or weeks: The transportation challenge has been simply too great. Army transformation efforts seek to establish that ability, turning the Army from the Legacy Force made up of well-equipped heavy warfighting forces, which are difficult to deploy strategically, and rapidly responding light forces, which lack staying power against heavy mechanized forces, to, first, an Interim Force of Stryker Brigade Combat Teams' brigade-sized forces equipped with a family of current generation medium weight wheeled armored vehicles--then, 15 to 20 years out, the Objective Force, equipped with the Future Combat System (FCS), a medium weight tank that the Army hopes can be as survivable and lethal as the 70-ton M-1 tank.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This reference work is an ideal resource for anyone interested in better understanding the controversial Iraq War. It treats the war in its entirety, covering politics, religion, and history, as well as military issues. The Iraq War started in 2003 in a quest to rid the nation of weapons of mass destruction (WMDs) that were never found. It lasted over 8 years, during which more than 30,000 U.S. service members were wounded and almost 4,500 American lives lost. Comprised of some 275 entries, this comprehensive encyclopedia examines the war from multiple points of view. Each article is written by an expert with specialized knowledge of the topic. The reference covers every aspect of the Iraq War, from the U.S. invasion (Operation IRAQI FREEDOM) through the rise of Al Qaeda in Iraq, the surge, and the U.S. withdrawal. Other significant aspects of the conflict are addressed as well, including Abu Ghraib, WMDs, the controversial use of private military contractors, and Britain's role in the war. The book also features an overview essay, a "causes and consequences" essay, maps, photos, a chronology, and a bibliography.

Book excerpt: This in-depth study of U.S. involvement in the modern Middle East carefully weighs the interplay of domestic, cultural, religious, diplomatic, international, and military events in one of the world's most troubled regions. The monumental, five-volume The Encyclopedia of Middle East Wars: The United States in the Persian Gulf, Afghanistan, and Iraq Conflicts is a must-have resource for anyone seeking to comprehend U.S. actions in this volatile region. Under the expert editorship of Spencer C. Tucker, the encyclopedia traces 20th- and 21st-century U.S. involvement in the Middle East and south-central Asia, concentrating on the last three decades. Beginning with the 1980–1988 Iran-Iraq War, it covers the 1979–1989 Soviet occupation of Afghanistan, the 1991 Persian Gulf War, allied punitive actions against Iraq during the 1990s, the Afghanistan War, the Iraq War, and the Global War on Terror. Many smaller military actions against Iran, Iraq, Libya, Afghanistan, and other regimes that have been involved in international terrorism are also included. Diplomacy, religion as it pertains to Middle East conflict, and social/cultural developments are other key subjects of analysis, as is the interplay of politics with military policy in the United States and other nations involved in the region.

This book was released on 2012-08-12 with total page 562 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the story of how the United States Army responded to the challenges of the end of the Cold War by transforming itself into the most capable ground force in the world today. It argues that from 1989 through 2005 the U.S. Army attempted, and largely achieved, a centrally directed and institutionally driven transformation relevant to ground warfare that exploited Information Age technology, adapted to post?Cold War strategic circumstances, and integrated into parallel Department of Defense efforts. The process not only modernized equipment, it also substantially altered doctrine, organization, training, administrative and logistical practices, and the service culture. Kevlar Legions further contends that the digitized expeditionary Army has withstood the test of combat, performing superbly with respect to deployment and high-end conventional combat and capably with respect to low-intensity conflict and the counterinsurgency challenges of Iraq and Afghanistan.

Book excerpt: In 1999, the Army announced its intention to transform its forces into a more strategically responsive force that could more rapidly deploy and effectively operate in all types of mil. oper., whether small-scale contingencies or major theater wars. Army plans call for an over 30-year transformation that will lead to the ability to deploy a brigade anywhere in the world within 96 hours, a div. in 120 hours, and 5 div. within 30 days. The 1st step in this process is to form and equip 6 Interim BCT (IBCT). The first 2 brigades are now being formed. This report: identifies the expected capabilities of the IBCT; determines the Commander in Chief's views on the utility of the IBCTs; identifies the challenges that have arisen; and determines if the Army can capture lessons learned.
