Download or read book How Many Can Be Joint Supporting Joint Duty Assignments written by and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Goldwater-Nichols Department of Defense (DoD) Reorganization Act of 1986 directed a broad range of organizational and functional changes to improve the ability of the military services to carry out successful joint military operations. However, from the act's initial implementation, the defense agencies and the services have raised numerous concerns about its provisions and procedures. Congress recognized these concerns and tasked DoD to revisit the implementation of the Goldwater-Nichols legislation. The conferees of the 1993 National Defense Authorization Act reviewed the procedures, both statutory and regulatory, for designating a position as a joint duty assignment and concluded that 'the time has come to reconsider the joint duty assignment list, particularly with respect to Defense Agencies.' In response to a request by the Director of Manpower and Personnel of the Joint Staff (JS/J-1), RAND examined the joint officer management that forms the basis of the response to the congressional directives. To respond to Congress effectively, the research approached the issue of joint officer management from both the demand and supply sides. The goal of the demand-side research was to recommend a procedure for measuring the joint content of a position; the goal of the supply-side research was to determine how many of the positions with joint content the services could support. This report describes the results of the supply-side analysis.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Goldwater-Nichols Department of Defense (DoD) Reorganization Act of 1986 directed a broad range of organizational and functional changes to improve the military services' ability to carry out successful joint military operations. Title W of the act contains the personnel provisions including management policies, promotion objectives, and education and experience for officers assigned to "joint" billets. However, the defense agencies and services have from the act's initial implementation raised numerous concerns about its provisions and procedures. Congress recognized these concerns and tasked DoD to revisit the implementation of Title Iv of the Goldwater-Nichols legislation. The In response to a request by the Director of Manpower and Personnel of the Joint Staff (JS/J-1), RAND examined the joint officer management that forms the basis of the response to the congressional directives. To effectively respond to Congress, the research approached the issue of joint officer management from both the demand and supply sides. The goal of the demand-side research was to recommend a procedure for identifying joint duty positions and to understand the implications of applying the procedure by generating several notional new Joint Duty Assignment Lists (JDALs); the goal of the supply-side research was to determine how large a JDAL the services could support. This report describes the results of the demand-side analysis.

Download or read book Who is Joint written by John Frederic Schank and published by RAND Corporation. This book was released on 1996 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An analysis of joint officer management from the demand side to assist in a response to a congressional directive to review joint billets and joint duty assignments. The goal of the demand-side research was to recommend a procedure for identifying the joint content of positions and to examine the implications of applying the procedure to generate a new Joint Duty Assignment List. The researchers found from analysis of survey data that joint content can be adequately measured by using a combination of Joint Time and Joint Function and an algorithm was developed to rank-order the positions. The size of a list can then be cut to the desired number of positions the services can support. The authors recommend changing policy to allow O-3 positions to qualify for joint credit. They further suggest changes to the Goldwater-Nichols legislation to allow in-service billets for grades O-4 to O-6 and to use a specific methodology to identify critical billets. A companion report will describe the results and recommendations of the supply-side analysis.

Download or read book Victory On The Potomac written by James R. Locher and published by Texas A&M University Press. This book was released on 2002 with total page 552 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: War is waged not only on battlefields. In the mid-1980s a high-stakes political struggle to redesign the relationships among the president, secretary of defense, Joint Chiefs of Staff, chairman of the Joint Chiefs, and warfighting commanders in the field resulted in the Goldwater-Nichols Act of 1986. Author James R. Locher III played a key role in the congressional effort to repair a dysfunctional military whose interservice squabbling had cost American taxpayers billions of dollars and put the lives of thousands of servicemen and women at risk. Victory on this front helped make possible the military successes the United States has enjoyed since the passage of the bill and to prepare it for the challenges it must still face.Victory on the Potomac provides the first detailed history of how Congress unified the Pentagon and does so with the benefit of an insider's view. In a fast-paced account that reads like a novel, Locher follows the bill through congressional committee to final passage, making clear that the process is neither abstract nor automatic. His vivid descriptions bring to life the amazing cast of this real-life drama, from the straight-shooting chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, Barry Goldwater, to the peevishly stubborn secretary of defense, Caspear Weinberger.Locher's analysis of political maneuvering and bureaucratic infighting will fascinate anyone who has an interest in how government works, and his understanding of the stakes in military reorganization will make clear why this legislative victory meant so much to American military capability. James R. Locher III, a graduate of West Point and Harvard Business School began his career in Washington as an executive trainee in the Office of the Secretary of Defense. He has worked in the White House, the Pentagon, and the Senate. During the period covered by this book, he was a staff member for the Senate Committee on Armed Services. Since then, he has served as an assistant secretary of defense in the first Bush and the early Clinton administrations. Currently, he works as a consultant and lecturer on defense matters.

Download or read book Joint Duty Prerequisite for Promotion to O7 brigadier General written by Julius E. Coats and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 35 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Goldwater-Nichols Department of Defense Reorganization Act of 1986 mandated significant changes in the Department of Defense military personnel policy. These changes were designed to strengthen the position of the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and Commander-in-chiefs of unified and specified commands, to establish joint professional military education requirements for military officers and to mandate a joint duty requirement into promotion standards for general officers. Of significance is Section 404, Title IV, of the Act: it establishes the requirement of a joint duty assignment for field grade officers as a prerequisite for their promotion to the grade of 07 (flag officer). This study will examine some of the problems that the Army faces in ensuring that sufficient number of high quality officers receive a joint duty assignment to allow adequate selectivity for flag rank. Additional issues of the Joint/Army officers development policies will be examined to provide a deep background for examination of this new requirement's impact on Army personnel policy. The study then offers recommendations for effective implementation of the joint duty requirement and concluding observations about management of this new personnel policy; to wit, the Army leadership at all levels should view joint duty requirement for selection for flag officer with a positive attitude, not as a means for qualifying officers for flag officer but as a means of facilitating the military service's ability to successfully operate jointly in combat.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Noncommissioned Officer and Petty Officer BACKBONE of the Armed Forces. Introduction The Backbone of the Armed Forces To be a member of the United States Armed Forces--to wear the uniform of the Nation and the stripes, chevrons, or anchors of the military Services--is to continue a legacy of service, honor, and patriotism that transcends generations. Answering the call to serve is to join the long line of selfless patriots who make up the Profession of Arms. This profession does not belong solely to the United States. It stretches across borders and time to encompass a culture of service, expertise, and, in most cases, patriotism. Today, the Nation's young men and women voluntarily take an oath to support and defend the Constitution of the United States and fall into formation with other proud and determined individuals who have answered the call to defend freedom. This splendid legacy, forged in crisis and enriched during times of peace, is deeply rooted in a time-tested warrior ethos. It is inspired by the notion of contributing to something larger, deeper, and more profound than one's own self.
