Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Smallholder farmers and pastoralists fulfil an invaluable yet undervalued role in conserving biodiversity. They act as guardians of locally adapted livestock breeds that can make use of even marginal environments under tough climatic conditions and therefore are a crucial resource for food security. But in addition, by sustaining animals on natural vegetation and as part of local ecosystems, these communities also make a significant contribution to the conservation of wild biodiversity and of cultural landscapes. This publication provides a glimpse into the often intricate knowledge systems that pastoralists and smallholder farmers have developed for the management of their breeds in specific production systems and it also describes the multitude of threats and challenges these often marginalized communities have to cope with.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is Joint Warfare Joint warfare is a military doctrine that places priority on the integration of the various branches of a state's armed forces into one unified command. Joint warfare is in essence a form of combined arms warfare on a larger, national scale, in which complementary forces from a state's army, navy, air, coastal, space, and special forces are meant to work together in joint operations, rather than planning and executing military operations separately.

Download or read book Joint Warfare of the US Armed Forces Joint Warfare is Team Warfare written by and published by . This book was released on 1991 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Joint Pub 1 guides the joint action of the Armed Forces of the United States, presenting concepts molding those Armed Forces into the most effective joint fighting force. These concepts are broad and require a leader's judgment in application. Since the American military has often fought as part of alliances and coalitions, this publication guides our multinational endeavors as well. The nature of modern warfare demands that we fight as a team. This does not mean that all forces will be equally represented in each operation. Joint force commanders choose the capabilities they need from the air, land, sea, space, and special operations forces at their disposal. The resulting team provides joint force commanders the ability to apply overwhelming force from different dimensions and directions to shock, disrupt, and defeat opponents. Effectively integrated joint forces expose no weak points or seams to enemy action, while they rapidly and efficiently find and attack enemy weak points. Joint warfare is essential to victory. Accordingly, this publication is written to help ensure members of the US Armed Forces fight successfully together. The joint team of the US Armed Forces comprises the members of each Service, active and reserve, and our supporting civilians. Although the Services organize, train, equip, and sustain forces, these forces are employed under joint force commanders. To help achieve our fullest combat potential, all American military leaders must integrate the concepts and values presented in this publication into the operations of the US Armed Forces. To this end, Joint Pub 1 is being given exceptionally broad distribution.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A detailed examination of Operation Husky, the US and British invasion and conquest of the Italian island of Sicily. Not only did the Sicily operation represent a watershed in tactical development of combined arms tactics, it was also an important test for future Allied joint operations. Senior British commanders left the North African theater with a jaundiced and dismissive view of the combat capabilities of the inexperienced US Army after the debacle at Kasserine Pass in Tunisia in February 1943. Sicily was a demonstration that the US Army had rapidly learned its lessons and was now capable of fighting as a co-equal of the British Army. The Sicily campaign contained a measure of high drama as Patton took the reins of the Seventh US Army and bent the rules of the theater commander in a bold race to take Palermo on the northern Sicilian coast. When stiff German resistance halted Montgomery's main assault to Messina through the mountains, Patton was posed to be the first to reach the key Sicilian port and end the campaign. This richly-illustrated volume details the highs and lows of the Sicily campaign, including the disastrous problems with early airborne assaults and the Allied failure to seal the straits of Messina, allowing the Germans to withdraw many of their best forces.

This book was released on 2012-10-01 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The President and Secretary of Defense have directed the Department of Defense (DOD) to transform in order to meet an uncertain future and the unfolding challenges of the 21st Century domestic and international security environments. As the Armed Forces of the United States transform, they must develop a common frame of reference to define and develop future joint force concepts, capabilities, requirements, and Service-provided forces. The existing frames of reference for the joint force are joint doctrine and Joint Vision. Joint doctrine only provides a common frame of reference for the current joint force. It does not, however, address the development or experimentation of future concepts and capabilities that could improve joint force operations. The Joint Vision provides a broad future vision and construct for military transformation. However, it contains little actionable detail for joint force planning and development. Joint doctrine and Joint Vision together will provide a baseline to help focus the development and comparative analysis of emerging concepts, capabilities, requirements, and Service-provided forces that will be employed within future joint warfare and crisis resolution. At the focal point of US military transformation and implementation is the Joint Requirements Oversight Council (JROC). The role of the JROC has evolved from a strictly materiel focus to a strategic integration role in the coevolution of joint doctrine, organization, training, materiel, leadership and education, personnel, and facilities (DOTMLPF) critical force considerations. As the crossroads for joint vision related requirements generation and development, the JROC currently must evaluate concepts, capabilities, architectures and requirements from each Service. What is missing for the JROC's use is a common perspective on joint warfare and crisis resolution in the 21st Century from which the JROC can review, integrate and compare emerging joint concepts, capabilities, architecture and requirements. To provide the missing common joint perspective for the JROC and address the Chairman's future joint vision in actionable detail, the Joint Staff's Directorate for Operational Plans and Joint Force Development (J-7) has worked on a JROC-sponsored project in collaboration with the Services, combatant commands, Joint Staff and defense agencies to develop An Evolving Joint Perspective: US Joint Warfare and Crisis Resolution In the 21st Century. This document provides a common joint warfighting perspective intended to identify and describe the key elements and desired capabilities that comprise the evolving and emerging American way of joint warfare and crisis resolution for the foreseeable future. This joint perspective grows from an understanding of the current environment, focuses on Joint Vision as the azimuth, and serves as the foundation for transformation. It captures and defines emerging consensus on the desired shifts in the characteristics and conduct of joint warfare and crisis resolution as well as the evolving joint fundamentals that will help to achieve the desired goals of military transformation. It provides an essential complement to Service transformation and warfighting perspectives and an integrating context for joint concept and architecture development, the Requirements Generation System (RGS), and Force Planning and development efforts.

Book excerpt: Our unified or joint system of command is at the heart of our ability to plan and conduct the operations required to implement the national military strategy. The joint system is disciplined by the principle that allows decisions to be made at the lowest possible level so that flexibility is given, along with the necessary authority, initiative, and responsibility, to those who can use it to the best advantage - the joint commanders on the scene.Our commanders exist to be ready to fight and fight successfully. Should deterrence fail, they are the ones who will carry out our war plans. We must make sure that commanders get the forces they need and that the forces of the four services are integrated properly. We must realize the full potential of those forces by ensuring that they can work together through sensible equipment, effective joint doctrine, and exercises. Interoperability and effectively coordinated joint and combined operations will give us a payoff that is greater than the sum of the individual parts.This book addresses one important aspect of our joint doctrine for unified operations within a theater - joint warfare for airland combat. Without clearly defined and well-practiced joint tactics, techniques, procedures and an organization for airland combat, the effective employment of all arms toward a single objective is made difficult, even wasteful and dangerous.The author is well qualified to write this book. He served on the Air Staff during the important years in which the airland battle interface was developed and participated in the Air Staff contributions to the U.S. Army's Extended Battlefield and AirLand Battle Concepts. While assigned to the Organization of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Colonel Cardwell participated in the development of NATO's and SHAPE's Conceptual Military Frameworks, SHAPE's Follow-On Forces Attack Concept, the Joint Staff's Interdiction and Follow-On Forces Attack Studies, and the Joint Doctrine Development Program.Colonel Cardwell has traced for us the development of airland combat strategy since World War I, outlined current thinking on the subject, and offered prescriptions for strengthening our capabilities for joint operations. In so doing, he has built a valuable source document on airland combat and contributed to the dialogue on joint doctrine in a meaningful and useful way.John W. Vessey, Jr.General, USA, Retired

This book was released on 2012-10-25 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication is the capstone joint doctrine publication. It provides doctrine for unified action by the Armed Forces of the United States. As such, it specifies the authorized command relationships and authority that military commanders can use, provides guidance for the exercise of that military authority, provides fundamental principles and guidance for command and control, prescribes guidance for organizing joint forces, and describes policy for selected joint activities. It also provides the doctrinal basis for interagency coordination and for US military involvement in multiagency and multinational operations. Joint doctrine promotes a common perspective from which to plan, train, and conduct military operations. It represents what is taught, believed, and advocated as what is right (i.e., what works best). Conducting joint operations generally involve 12 broad principles, collectively known as the “principles of joint operations”. These principles guide warfighting at the strategic, operational, and tactical levels of war. They combine the nine historical principles of war (present in joint doctrine since its inception) with three additional principles born out of experience across the range of military operations. US military service is based on values that US military experience has proven to be vital for operational success. These values adhere to the most idealistic societal norms, are common to all the Services, and represent the essence of military professionalism. Competent joint warfighters must be skilled in thinking strategically and at optimizing joint capabilities, applying strategic and operational art, and having a joint perspective. There are five values, while not specific to joint operations, that have special impact on the conduct of joint operations. The values are integrity, competency, physical courage, moral courage, and teamwork. The Armed Forces fulfill unique and crucial roles, defending the United States against all adversaries and serving the Nation as a bulwark and the guarantors of its security and independence. When called to action, the Armed Forces support and defend national interests worldwide. The Armed Forces embody the highest values and standards of American society and the profession of arms. The Armed Forces fulfill their roles, missions, and functions within the American system of civil-military relations. The Armed Forces also serve under the civilian control of the President who is the Commander in Chief. The nature of the challenges to the United States and its interests demand that the Armed Forces operate as a fully integrated joint team across the range of military operations. These operations may take place with the military forces of allies and coalition partners, US and foreign government agencies, state and local government agencies, and intergovernmental and nongovernmental organizations. The challenges are best met when the unified action of the Armed Forces elicits the maximum contribution from each Service and Department of Defense (DOD) agency and their unique but complementary capabilities. The resulting synergy from their synchronized and integrated action is a direct reflection of those capabilities. Joint warfare is team warfare. Effective integration of joint forces exposes no weak points or seams to an adversary. They rapidly and efficiently find and exploit the adversary's critical vulnerabilities and other weak points as they contribute most to mission accomplishment. This does not mean that all forces will be equally represented in each operation. Joint force commanders (JFCs) may choose the capabilities they need from the forces at their disposal.
