Book excerpt: The Marine Corps Way of War examines the evolving doctrine, weapons, and capability of the United States Marine Corps during the four decades since our last great conflict in Asia. As author Anthony Piscitelli demonstrates, the USMC has maintained its position as the nation's foremost striking force while shifting its thrust from a reliance upon attrition to a return to maneuver warfare.In Indochina, for example, the Marines not only held territory but engaged in now-legendary confrontational battles at Hue, Khe Sanh. As a percentage of those engaged, the Marines suffered higher casualties than any other branch of the service. In the post-Vietnam assessment, however, the USMC ingrained aspects of Asian warfare as offered by Sun Tzu, and returned to its historical DNA in fighting "small wars" to evolve a superior alternative to the battlefield.The institutionalization of maneuver philosophy began with the Marine Corps' educational system, analyzing the actual battle-space of warfare--be it humanitarian assistance, regular set-piece battles, or irregular guerrilla war--and the role that the leadership cadre of the Marine Corps played in this evolutionary transition from attrition to maneuver. Author Piscatelli explains the evolution by using traditional and first-person accounts by the prime movers of this paradigm shift. This change has sometimes been misportrayed, including by the Congressional Military Reform Caucus, as a disruptive or forced evolution. This is simply not the case, as the analyses by individuals from high-level commanders to junior officers on the ground in Iraq, Afghanistan, and elsewhere, demonstrate. The ability of the Marines to impact the battlefield--and help achieve our strategic goals--has only increased during the post-Cold War era.Throughout The Marine Corps Way of War: The Evolution of the U.S. Marine Corps from Attrition to Maneuver Warfare in the Post-Vietnam Era, one thing remains clear: the voices of the Marines themselves, in action or through analysis, describing how "the few, the proud" will continue to be America's cutting-edge in the future as we move through the 21st Century. This new work is must-reading for not only every Marine, but for everyone interested in the evolution of the world's finest military force.

Download or read book Naval Transformation Roadmap 2003 written by Department Navy and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-02-17 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Naval transformation will support joint transformation by delivering new military capabilities and dramatically enhancing current capabilities to protect and advance America's worldwide interests by assuring access and projecting power from the sea. While the Navy - Marine Corps Team is expanding the entire array of naval capabilities we provide the Nation, our transformation is centered upon the development of Seabasing: the concepts and capabilities that exploit our command of the sea to project, protect, and sustain integrated warfighting capabilities from the maritime domain. Seabasing and the supporting tools we are developing will usher in dramatic new ways of employing naval forces to deter conflict and, when required, to wage war. Throughout, every aspect of naval transformation will be, first and foremost, committed to and built upon the principles of jointness. Seabasing will provide new naval capability options for use by Joint Force Commanders in innovative combinations with the transformed capabilities of the other Services and Agencies. The transformation of America's naval forces is a continuous process, one that includes changes in the way we train, educate and employ our people; the way we organize and equip our warfighting formations; and the processes by which we distinguish and develop the naval capabilities that will be needed by future joint forces. This Naval Transformation Roadmap serves to identify the most significant of the enhanced naval capabilities we believe will be required by the nation, and captures many of the concrete steps we are taking to achieve them. It describes how naval forces will achieve the transformational warfighting capabilities needed to support the developing Joint Operating Concepts (JOCs) and the six critical operational goals described in the 2001 Quadrennial Defense Review (QDR). These naval capabilities are focused on projecting and sustaining forces in distant anti-access and area denial environments while protecting against our asymmetric vulnerabilities by exploiting our maritime superiority to protect and advance America's worldwide interests. Naval transformation also supports Sailors, Marines, civilians, and contractors through the modernization of naval personnel management systems. Throughout, our naval transformational process is intended to support the development of Department of Defense capabilities that are jointly integrated from inception, rather than being merely incorporated by future Joint Force Commanders under the pressure of emerging crises. The Navy - Marine Corps Team; with its two distinct Services, core competencies, and cultures; is proud to serve as a model for what can be achieved by different organizations working towards common ends.
Download or read book U S Marines In Vietnam The Landing And The Buildup 1965 written by Dr. Jack Shulimson and published by Pickle Partners Publishing. This book was released on 2016-08-09 with total page 363 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the second volume in a series of chronological histories prepared by the Marine Corps History and Museums Division to cover the entire span of Marine Corps involvement in the Vietnam War. This volume details the Marine activities during 1965, the year the war escalated and major American combat units were committed to the conflict. The narrative traces the landing of the nearly 5,000-man 9th Marine Expeditionary Brigade and its transformation into the ΙII Marine Amphibious Force, which by the end of the year contained over 38,000 Marines. During this period, the Marines established three enclaves in South Vietnam’s northernmost corps area, I Corps, and their mission expanded from defense of the Da Nang Airbase to a balanced strategy involving base defense, offensive operations, and pacification. This volume continues to treat the activities of Marine advisors to the South Vietnamese armed forces but in less detail than its predecessor volume, U.S. Marines in Vietnam, 1954-1964; The Advisory and Combat Assistance Era.

The Marine transformation is forever ingrained in our DNA, from recruit training to Officer Candidates School and throughout the rest of our lives. The transformation to becoming a Marine is often the defining moment in a person's life. All Marines must possess a clear understanding that our Eagle, Globe and Anchor is much more than an emblem, rather that earning the title "Marine" carries a life-long responsibility to defend our nation, to care for our fellow Marine, and to keep our honor clean. This publication is focused on one of our key leadership principles: know your Marines and look out for their welfare. It is a companion to Marine Corps Warfighting Publication 6-11, Leading Marines, and provides more detail to leaders about how to takecare of their Marines through the five phases of the transformation process. It is a leadership tool that provides sound examples and methods for success. Sustaining a Marine through this process requires engaged leadership. I encourage you to use this reference as a starting point for discussions amongst peers, subordinates, and seniors. Your dialogue and application will improve the welfare of all Marines and our institution. Sustaining our transformation is not a new concept; it has endured for over 230 years. The saying, "Once a Marine, Always a Marine" holds true because our transformations have been strengthened throughout our lives. We witness the health of our traditions and legacy in the proud smile of a new private graduating boot camp, or in the hearty handshake and greeting of two seasoned warriors. The Marine Corps family is alive and well, as is our rich heritage. I remain, Semper Fidelis...
