Book Intelligence Power in Peace and War

Download or read book Intelligence Power in Peace and War written by Michael Herman and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1996-10-13 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Intelligence services form an important but controversial part of the modern state. Drawing mainly on British and American examples, this book provides an analytic framework for understanding the 'intelligence community' and assessing its value. The author, a former senior British intelligence officer, describes intelligence activities, the purposes which the system serves, and the causes and effects of its secrecy. He considers 'intelligence failure' and how organisation and management can improve the chances of success. Using parallels with the information society and the current search for efficiency in public administration as a whole, the book explores the issues involved in deciding how much intelligence is needed and discusses the kinds of management necessary. In his conclusions Michael Herman discusses intelligence's national value in the post-Cold War world. He also argues that it has important contributions to make to international security, but that its threat-inducing activities should be kept in check.

Download or read book Army Medical Logistics written by Department of the Army and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2012-10 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The AHS (Army Health System) is a component of the Military Health System (MHS) that is responsible for operational management of the health service support (HSS) and force health protection (FHP) missions for training, predeployment, deployment, and postdeployment operations. The Army's MEDLOG system (including blood management) is an integral part of the AHS in that it provides intensive management of medical products and services that are used almost exclusively by the AHS and are critical to its success. Also key to this success is the delivery of a MEDLOG capability that anticipates the needs of the customer and is tailored to continuously provide end-to-end sustainment of the AHS mission throughout full spectrum operations. Providing timely and effective AHS support is a team effort which integrates the clinical and operational aspects of the mission. The provision of MEDLOG support requires collaboration between the medical logisticians, clinicians, and other health care providers within the operational environment and encompasses the following functions: Medical materiel procurement and distribution (acquisition, receiving, shipping, storage, and stock record/property accounting); Medical equipment maintenance and repair; Optical fabrication and repair; Management of patient movement items; Production of medical gases; Blood storage and distribution; Medical hazardous waste management; Management of medical facilities and infrastructure; Medical contracting support; Total product life-cycle management of medical materiel and equipment. This manual describes the capabilities of the MEDLOG system and its role in sustaining the AHS mission. Medical logistics support for deployed forces is the primary focus of this manual. However, generating force or national strategic-level MEDLOG support is also addressed to present a clear picture of the processes involved and resources expended to guarantee a Class VIII support infrastructure. This Class VIII infrastructure ensures the seamless delivery of health care from the point of injury through successive roles of care to the continental US (CONUS) support base. This publication opens with an overview of Army MEDLOG, followed by a description of each MEDLOG unit, the capabilities available, and role of care where each element may be employed. This manual also covers the information systems and enablers available to facilitate the flow of supplies and equipment throughout the area of operations (AO), as well as the current force (Medical Force 2000, Medical Reengineering Initiative, modular division, and brigade combat team [BCT] force designs) and emerging concepts scheduled to occur as part of current and future force fielding events.

Book Counterinsurgency and the Global War on Terror

Download or read book Counterinsurgency and the Global War on Terror written by Robert M. Cassidy and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2006-04-30 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since September 2001, the United States has waged what the government initially called the global war on terrorism (GWOT). Beginning in late 2005 and early 2006, the term Long War began to appear in U.S. security documents such as the National Security Council's National Strategy for Victory in Iraq and in statements by the U.S. Secretary of Defense and the Chairman of the JCS. The description Long War—unlimited in time and space and continuing for decades—is closer to reality and more useful than GWOT. Colonel Robert Cassidy argues that this protracted struggle is more correctly viewed as a global insurgency and counterinsurgency. Al Qaeda and its affiliates, he maintains, comprise a novel and evolving form of networked insurgents who operate globally, harnessing the advantages of globalization and the information age. They employ terrorism as a tactic, subsuming terror within their overarching aim of undermining the Western-dominated system of states. Placing the war against al Qaeda and its allied groups and organizations in the context of a global insurgency has vital implications for doctrine, interagency coordination, and military cultural change-all reviewed in this important work. Cassidy combines the foremost maxims of the most prominent Western philosopher of war and the most renowned Eastern philosopher of war to arrive at a threefold theme: know the enemy, know yourself, and know what kind of war you are embarking upon. To help readers arrive at that understanding, he first offers a distilled analysis of al Qaeda and its associated networks, with a particular focus on ideology and culture. In subsequent chapters, he elucidates the challenges big powers face when they prosecute counterinsurgencies, using historical examples from Russian, American, British, and French counterinsurgent wars before 2001. The book concludes with recommendations for the integration and command and control of indigenous forces and other agencies.

Book Warlords Rising

Download or read book Warlords Rising written by Troy S. Thomas and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2005 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Violent non-state actors (VNSA) often serve a destabilizing role in nearly every humanitarian and political crisis faced by the international community. As non-state armed groups gain greater access to resources and networks through global interconnectivity, they have come to dominate the terrain of illegal trade in drugs, guns, and humans. Warlords Rising arms those confronting the mounting challenge by delivering an innovative, interdisciplinary framework of analysis designed to improve understanding of non-state adversaries in order to affect their development and performance. Examining the utility of traditional theories of deterrence and warfighting in light of the insight gained through this interdisciplinary approach, the authors elevate the powerful role of environmental shaping in group development, recast deterrence in ecological terms, and lay out a strategy to defeat non-state adversaries if necessary. Whether the goal is preventing, coercing, or conquering, the framework of analysis presented here is designed to be universal, allowing for structured analysis across regions, types, and functions of non-state actors and providing the decision maker and policy maker witha variety of modes and methods of intervention.

Book Germany and the Axis Powers from Coalition to Collapse

Download or read book Germany and the Axis Powers from Coalition to Collapse written by R. L. DiNardo and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It seemed that whenever Mussolini acted on his own, it was bad news for Hitler. Indeed, the Fuhrer's relations with his Axis partners were fraught with an almost total lack of coordination. Compared to the Allies, the coalition was hardly an alliance at all. Focusing on Germany's military relations with Italy, Romania, Hungary, and Finland, Richard DiNardo unearths a wealth of information that reveals how the Axis coalition largely undermined Hitler's objectives from the Eastern Front to the Balkans, Mediterranean, and North Africa. DiNardo argues that the Axis military alliance was doomed from the beginning by a lack of common war aims, the absence of a unified command structure, and each nation's fundamental mistrust of the others. Germany was disinclined to make the kinds of compromises that successful wartime partnerships demanded and, because Hitler insisted on separate pacts with each nation, Italy and Finland often found themselves conducting counterproductive parallel wars on their own. DiNardo's detailed assessments of ground, naval, and air operations reveal precisely why the Axis allies were so dysfunctional as a collective force, sometimes for seemingly mundane but vital reasons-a shortage of interpreters, for example. His analysis covers coalition warfare at every level, demonstrating that some military services were better at working with their allies than others, while also pointing to rare successes, such as Rommel's effective coordination with Italian forces in North Africa. In the end, while some individual Axis units fought with distinction—if not on a par with the vaunted Wehrmacht—and helped Germany achieve some of its military aims, the coalition's overall military performance was riddled with disappointments. Breaking new ground, DiNardo's work enlarges our understanding of Germany's defeat while at the same time offering a timely reminder of the challenges presented by coalition warfare.
