Book Operational Deception   The Lost Art in Today s Operations

Download or read book Operational Deception The Lost Art in Today s Operations written by and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 23 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper attempts to show that operational deception, as an operational art, still has a purpose in America's military today. Historical case studies have shown that at a relative inexpensive cost, deception is a force multiplier that can change the outcome of a conflict and can allow a weaker force to defeat a stronger force. Some have argued that recent advances in technology and Information Warfare make deception unnecessary and a waste of resources and time. Conversely, as military leaders become more dependent on information technology, there will be more opportunities to use deception in order to achieve military objectives. The study and practice of deception must improve if the Joint Force Commander expects to be able to conduct effective deception operations. There should be more emphasis at professional education institutions, joint doctrine should be revised to emphasize the role of deception for the commander, and a new Directorate for Deception Operations on the Joint Staff should be established in order to strengthen America's ability to conduct deception operations.

Book excerpt: NOTE: NO FURTHER DISCOUNT FOR THIS PRINT PRODUCT--OVERSTOCK SALE -- Significantly reduced list price while supplies last Historical Perspectives of the Operational Art, a companion volume to Clayton R. Newell's and Michael D. Krause's On Operational Art, captures the doctrinal debate over the evolving concept of operational art-the critical link between strategy and tactics-in the face of the new complexities of warfare and the demands of irregular operations in the twenty-first century. Consisting of fifteen original essays selected and edited by Michael D. Krause in collaboration with R. Cody Phillips, the well-organized anthology presents the collective view of distinguished military historians and scholars that operational art must be adjusted to accommodate the changing circumstances happening around the world, especially when dealing with broad coalitions and alliances in regional environments and at an international level.

Download or read book Deception written by Robert M. Clark and published by CQ Press. This book was released on 2018-01-12 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The chapters on the exercises are a treasure chest of material to work with, covering a whole array of scenarios. . . . I think virtually every page and topic could spark robust and spirited classroom discussion starting with the text title itself." —Ronald W. Vardy, University of Houston "Most students have very little or no background [in this subject area], so Clark’s work is great to introduce students to intelligence and the analytical disciplines . . . a really excellent book that fills a gaping hole in the public literature and is of genuinely great value to both students and practitioners." —Carl A. Wege, Professor Emeritus, College of Coastal Georgia Bridging the divide between theory and practice, Deception: Counterdeception and Counterintelligence provides a thorough overview of the principles of deception and its uses in intelligence operations. This masterful guide focuses on practical training in deception for both operational planners and intelligence analysts using a case-based approach. Authors Robert M. Clark and William L. Mitchell draw from years of professional experience to offer a fresh approach to the roles played by information technologies such as social media. By reading and working through the exercises in this text, operations planners will learn how to build and conduct a deception campaign, and intelligence analysts will develop the ability to recognize deception and support deception campaigns. Key Features New channels for deception, such as social media, are explored to show readers how to conduct and detect deception activities through information technology. Multichannel deception across the political, military, economic, social, infrastructure, and information domains provides readers with insight into the variety of ways deception can be used as an instrument for gaining advantage in conflict. Contemporary and historical cases simulate real-world raw intelligence and provide readers with opportunities to use theory to create a successful deception operation. A series of practical exercises encourages students to think critically about each situation. The exercises have several possible answers, and conflicting raw material is designed to lead readers to different answers depending on how the reader evaluates the material. Individual and team assignments offer instructors the flexibility to proceed through the exercises in any order and assign exercises based on what works best for the classroom setup.

Book Operational Deception Doctrine Melding the Air  Ground  and Naval Effort

Download or read book Operational Deception Doctrine Melding the Air Ground and Naval Effort written by and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper examines the relationship between the theory and practice of operational deception, and our new Battlefield Deception doctrine. The paper begins with an examination of the art of war focusing on what both ancient and modern theorists reveal about deception and its relationship to surprise. It continues with the historical review and analysis of several successful deception operations beginning with those conducted during the Second World War. Following this campaign analysis the paper examines our new doctrine on battlefield deception to determine the maxims of deception. These deception maxims are then compared with the theory and practice of deception to determine if our new doctrine is flawed. The study concludes that while adequate for tactical operations, the doctrine is flawed at the operational level. The authors have written the manual purely from a land component perspective, ignoring the fact that it is at the operational level of war that the effects of air, ground, and naval components are joined. It also is inconsistent with the historical cases reviewed. Historically it is proven that the Army and Army Group commanders integrated air and naval operations into their operational deception plans. Modern EAC level commanders must conduct both battle and deception using more than their own service components. Operational deception is Joint deception. (kr).

Book Deception Operations

Download or read book Deception Operations written by John G. Hathaway and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 41 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last ten years, initiatives at both the Department of Defense and Department of the Army levels have attempted to encourage a resurgence in the art of deception as a sustained war-fighting capability. This has seen an increased emphasis on deception in both U.S. doctrinal literature and in expanded coverage at our professional military institutions. This study seeks to examine the doctrinal foundation and historical perspective of deception operations to determine whether or not they should become an operational imperative at the Operational Level of War, or merely a doctrinal side show U.S. Military Forces. In addition, a review of present and for future issues, the technological necessities that could impact on our future deception operations, the overriding soviet emphasis on deception, and our current U.S. doctrinal education system will be addressed to provide an answer and recommendations to the question posed by the study title.

Download or read book Intelligence and Military Operations written by Michael Handel and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-09-13 with total page 481 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traditionally the military community held the intelligence profession in low esteem, spying was seen as dirty work and information was all to often ignored if it conflicted with a commander's own view. Handel examines the ways in which this situation has improved and argues that co-operation between the intelligence adviser and the military decision maker is vital.
