Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper focuses on the formulation of doctrine since World War II. In no comparable period in history have the dimensions of the battlefield been so altered by rapid technological changes. The need for the tactical doctrines of the Army to remain correspondingly abreast of these changes is thus more pressing than ever before. Future conflicts are not likely to develop in the leisurely fashions of the past where tactical doctrines could be refined on the battlefield itself. It is, therefore, imperative that we apprehend future problems with as much accuracy as possible. One means of doing so is to pay particular attention to the business of how the Army's doctrine has developed historically, with a view to improving methods of future development.

Download or read book On Tactics written by Brett Friedman and published by Naval Institute Press. This book was released on 2017-05-15 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally setting out to write the very book that he would have wanted to own as a young infantryman, the author penned On Tactics as a remedy for navigating the chaotic and inchoate realm of tactical theory. Challenging centuries-old conventional wisdom regarding the principles of war, tactics, and the roles of strategy, doctrine, experiential learning, and military history, Friedman's work offers a striking synthesis of thinking on tactics as well as strategy. Part One of the book establishes a tactical system meant to replace the Principles of War checklist. First, the contextual role of tactics with regards to strategy and war will be established. This will necessarily lean on major strategic theories in order to illuminate the role of tactics. This section will be formed around the Physical, Mental, and Moral planes of battlefield interaction used by theorists such as J.F.C Fuller and John Boyd. Each plane will then be examined in turn, and many of the classic Principles of War will be discussed along with some new ones. It will present some standard methods that tacticians can use to gain an advantage on the battlefield using historical examples that illustrate each concept. These "tactical tenets" include maneuver, mass, firepower, tempo, surprise, deception, confusion, shock, and the role of the moral aspects of combat. Finally, Part One will circle back around by discussing the role of tactical victory- once achieved- in contributed to a strategy. Part One is short by design. It is intended to be both compelling and easily mastered for junior non-commissioned officers and company grade officers, while still rich enough to be interesting to both specialist and non-specialist academics. It is a book meant not just for bookshelves but also for ruck sacks and cargo pockets. Part Two builds on Part One by exploring concepts with which the tactician must be familiar with such as the culminating point of victory, mission tactics and decentralized command and control, offensive and defensive operations, and the initiative. Part Three will conclude the book examining implications of the presented tactical systems to a variety of other issues in strategic studies.
Download or read book The AEF Way of War written by Mark Ethan Grotelueschen and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2006-11-20 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 2007 book provides the most comprehensive examination of American Expeditionary Forces (AEF) combat doctrine and methods ever published. It shows how AEF combat units actually fought on the Western Front in World War I. It describes how four AEF divisions (the 1st, 2nd, 26th, and 77th) planned and conducted their battles and how they adapted their doctrine, tactics, and other operational methods during the war. General John Pershing and other AEF leaders promulgated an inadequate prewar doctrine, with only minor modification, as the official doctrine of the AEF. Many early American attacks suffered from these unrealistic ideas that retained too much faith in the infantry rifleman on the modern battlefield. However, many AEF divisions adjusted their doctrine and operational methods as they fought, preparing more comprehensive attack plans, employing flexible infantry formations, and maximizing firepower to seize limited objectives.
Download or read book Practical Guerrilla Warfare written by R. J. Godlewski and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-10-13 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book represents the inaugural volume of the INTEGRATED TACTICAL WARFARE series produced by R.J. Godlewski to teach certain aspects of asymmetrical or fourth-generation warfare to military and security professionals. This series represents the personal views and beliefs of the author and do not necessarily represent the policies of any organization or business affiliated with the author. Nor do any books contained within this series necessarily advocate war or the damage and destruction of property and harming innocent human lives. 'This text exists because all other discussions on guerrilla warfare concentrate on one of three approaches: the historical, the glorifiable, and the descriptive. The first illuminates the broad history of guerrilla warfare within human civilization and, perhaps because of this, most books on the subject remain such historical treatises. The second offering turns renegades and murderers into popular heroes as much as Reconstruction turned Jesse James and Prohibition turned Al Capone into legends. The final group represents those books that possess more photographs and illustrations on "how-to" wage guerrilla warfare than honest discussion of its existence. There is nothing inherently wrong with this latter offering, rather that governments and other organizations that actively supported irregular warfare in one manner or another prepared most of these books. In other words, bureaucracies produced books on fighting bureaucracies (tyrannical or otherwise).'
