Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the past decade, the end of the Cold War and the waxing Information revolution appear to have set in motion a tectonic cultural movement, both imperceptible and vast, that is changing both the way in which the military is used and the ends it is called upon to pursue. The essence of that cultural movement is a consensus among policymaking elites in the United States and like-minded nations that national power(diplomatic, economic, informational, and military) should be used to promote international stability and reshape other nations and cultures as open, pluralistic, market-oriented democracies.

Download or read book Tactical Display for Soldiers written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1997-01-17 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the human factors issues associated with the development, testing, and implementation of helmet-mounted display technology in the 21st Century Land Warrior System. Because the framework of analysis is soldier performance with the system in the full range of environments and missions, the book discusses both the military context and the characteristics of the infantry soldiers who will use the system. The major issues covered include the positive and negative effects of such a display on the local and global situation awareness of the individual soldier, an analysis of the visual and psychomotor factors associated with each design feature, design considerations for auditory displays, and physical sources of stress and the implications of the display for affecting the soldier's workload. The book proposes an innovative approach to research and testing based on a three-stage strategy that begins in the laboratory, moves to controlled field studies, and culminates in operational testing.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Post-Cold War political pressures are likely to increase the demand for the U.S. military in general and the U.S. Army in particular to conduct operations other than war (OOTW). This report analyzes how changing demographics worldwide will affect the operational requirements of future OOTW missions. Two key factors that have influenced U.S. success or failure in the past are 1) political-military communication, and 2) mission creep and mission swing. Without effective political-military communication, military planning may be derived from political rhetoric or, alternatively, political decisions may be based on faulty understandings of military capabilities or considerations. Equally critical is sufficient recognition of, and planning for, mission creep (in which political goals shift, requiring military operations different from those planned at the intervention's outset) and mission swing (in which the operational environment undergoes quick deterioration or improvement unrelated to the presence or efforts of intervening forces). The report concludes with specific recommendations regarding Army doctrine, training, equipment, and force structure.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examines the rise of Operations Other Than War (OOTW) as a new and prominent tasking for the armed services of the United States. What force structure could both be ready to fight wars (destroy houses) and resolve conflicts short of War (clean windows) -- to do such chores as nation building, counterdrug operations, counterterrorist operations, arms control, and peace operations? The purpose of this study is to analyze the implications of the apparent paradigm shift in what civilian leaders require of the U.S. military instrument of power. With the Cold War over, the national security strategy includes the reaffirmation of democracy as a primary objective and the promotion of global free market economics to consolidate and strengthen democratic gains. Achieving these ends requires a peaceful process for resolving societal conflicts, generating needed reforms, and making transitions in governments. Since the United States has no major military threat in the short term, nonvital and often humanitarian concerns are consuming larger portions of its military budgets and personnel. This study argues that this new emphasis is a viable and relevant focus for the country and that the military clearly has the duty, competency, and capability to shoulder these roles and missions. The study addresses why the U.S. military can do these chores, despite contrary arguments, and who within the Armed Forces is already doing these extraordinary missions and can continue to do them without compromising operational readiness or fiscal parameters. The OOTW mission requires a new cooperation and coordination with national and international nonmilitary agencies, organizations, and coalitions to achieve its objectives. The Special Operations Command, which has the skill and will to serve well in the full spectrum of armed conflict, also has the cultural, social, and technical know-how to perform the more complex chores of nation building and humanitarian operations.

Download or read book Operations Other Than War: Who Says Warriors Don't Do Windows? written by Lieutenant Colonel Usaf Char Hasskamp and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2012-09-22 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examines the rise of operations other than war (OOTW) as a new and prominent tasking for the armed services of the United States. The author, Lt Col Charles W. Hasskamp, USAF, is an advocate of the OOTW mission, and he argues that the US Special Forces Command is an excellent instrument for the task. The author bases his position on these points. First, the end of the cold war has provided the United States a respite from the focused geopolitical strategy and challenge of "containment." Unfortunately, without the stability coerced by a bipolar world, the shutters have come off and the shades have gone up on "windows" that reveal a new world disorder. While the world has an increasingly interdependent global economy, the legacies of weapons of mass destruction, terrorism, drug trafficking, and religious and ethnic extremism generate increasing threats to that free market, democratic ideal the American public espouses for all countries. Second, the US government's current national security strategy emphasizes "engagement and enlargement" as they factor into US preventive diplomacy. The national military strategy emphasizes "flexible and selective engagement" which relates to preventive deterrence. Both of these strategies emphasize the use of US military forces for considerable work other than fighting the nation's wars-that is, for OOTW. As recent experience shows, there is considerable pressure to use the American military as an arbitrator and peacemaker to the world. This study examines the arguments for and against expanding our military's nontraditional roles and missions. It concludes that the US armed forces can do and will continue to be able to perform an excellent job in operations other than war, as they have done in the past. The danger is that this endeavor could jeopardize the readiness of a force structure necessary to maintain the more traditional war-fighting capabilities. The study suggests that an actually smaller force and smaller defense budget can still accomplish the primary mission of fighting the nation's wars while also undertaking the myriad of peacetime engagements and conflict preventions our leaders have ordered. Moreover, the Special Operations Command, which has the skill and will to serve well in the full spectrum of armed conflict, also has the cultural, social, and technical know-how to perform the more complex chores of nation building and humanitarian operations.

Download or read book Assessing the Prospects and Limitations of Military Operations Other Than War (MOOTW). written by and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the end of the Cold War and the Gulf War, the US military has been increasingly tasked for operations short of war, in what has come to be labeled Military Operations Other Than War (MOOTW). While the MOOTW concept has been incorporated into extant US military doctrine, specific missions attributed to MOOTW remain controversial, such as peace operations (Somalia, Haiti, and Bosnia) or humanitarian operations (Somalia, Rwanda). This paper broadly analyzes contemporary MOOTW missions and evaluates their relevance for the military in the future. First, it looks historically to determine the roots of MOOTW and how it differs from earlier, related, concepts such as Low-Intensity-Conflict and Unconventional Warfare. The missions encompassed in MOOTW are not new but follow a long history in the US military, described herein. Several differing concepts of future threats are reviewed to determine the continued applicability of MOOTW. Within a wide variety of future threat environments, MOOTW missions should still be able to contribute to enhancing national security. However, the ability of MOOTW responses to counter the threat does not, alone, justify using the military. The paper next examines which MOOTW missions can or should be carried out by the military. Many of the missions in MOOTW are likely to involve combating organized violence; hence those missions are appropriate for the military. For those that do not involve combat, there are several rationale: the military provides exclusive expertise, has appropriate resources, or performing those missions contributes to justifying military budgets and personnel designed for other threats or conflicts. These rationales are not sufficient to justify using the military in some MOOTW missions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the end of the Cold War, the frequency of U.S. military involvement in operations other than war (OOTW) has increased, while the force structure and number of military personnel have been reduced. You asked us to examine the impact of OOTW on the military services. As agreed with your office, we examined the (1) impact of OOTW on the warfighting capability of each of the services, including the time to recover warfighting skills; (2) extent to which reporting systems fully capture the impacts; (3) available information on the effect of OOTW on morale and retention; (4) ability of U.S. forces to respond to a major theater war while engaged in OOTW; (5) Department of Defense (DOD) efforts to alleviate any adverse impacts; and (6) funding provided by Congress for OOTW. We focused our efforts primarily on Army and Air Force units that have been engaged in operations in Bosnia and Southwest Asia (SWA) over the past several years and also included Navy units engaged in counterdrug operations in the Caribbean.

Book excerpt: The probability of, and demand for using the military to execute other than war missions, is increasing dramatically. These missions use the skills, capabilities, and resources of the military, but do not require the use of offensive force in their execution. They include theater of operations actions such as humanitarian and nation assistance, and domestic actions in response to natural disasters, and civil disturbance. The most recent addition to possible missions is support to communities to solve domestic infrastructure problems. There is significant debate in the military, government, and public sectors concerning the appropriateness of diverting military effort to other than war missions. This question is a particular concern as the nation downsizes its military. This paper addresses these missions, their impact on the readiness of the force, and their impact on force structure. It argues that there are valid other than war missions for the military and that assignment of the right unit to the right mission can benefit both the supported area/agency and the military unit executing the mission.
