Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The traditional distinction between military and political affairs in American life has become less significant as military officers increasingly participate with civilians in the formulation of national policies. In an examination of the impact of this change upon professional military education, the authors present a forthright analysis of military responsibility today, the growth of education for policy roles, the form and content of that education, and its relation to the over-all duties of the armed forces. They have used hundreds of interviews and questionnaires and studied carefully the history and programs of the military academies, ROTC, Command and Staff Schools, Armed Forces Staff College, National War College, three service War Colleges, Industrial College of the Armed Forces, and other institutions.

Book excerpt: Introduction. The Goldwater-Nichols Department of Defense Reorganization Act of 1986 (Goldwater-Nichols Act) requires DoD to establish joint billets and develop a program of joint education. Joint Professional Military Education (JPME) is that portion of professional military education which concentrates on the instruction of join matters. JPME consists of a two-phase military educational requirement. Phase I is incorporated into the curriculum taught to officers at Service-operated staff colleges. The Phase II program deals with integrated strategic deployment, employment, and sustainment of air, land, sea, space, and special operations forces with an emphasis on joint planning. The primary institution tasked with teaching JPME Phase II is the Armed Forces Staff College (AFSC). The Industrial College of the Armed Forces and the National War College also provide both JPME Phase I and Phase II for senior-level officers. The Goldwater-Nichols Act also requires DoD to periodically review and revise the curriculum of each JPME school to enhance the education and training of officers in joint matters. Subsequent legislation mandates that the prim course at the AFSC be at least 3 months long. Of 9,317 joint billets identified in 1997, the Goldwater-Nichols Act requires that half (4,659 billets) must be filled by joint specialty officers or nominees. Evaluation Objectives. The evaluation objective was to determine whether the JPME Phase II program was meeting the provisions of the Goldwater-Nichols Act. We assessed the Services' processes for assignment of officers to JPME Phase II and their management of joint officer assignments. In addition, we evaluated the role of the AFSC in the education of joint officers and the development of joint specialty officers. We did not, however, review or analyze the content of the JPME Phase II curriculum. We reviewed management controls relative to the evaluation objectives.

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. Notice: This is a printed Paperback version of the "The Noncommissioned Officer and Petty Officer BACKBONE of the Armed Forces". Full version, All Chapters included. This publication is available (Electronic version) in the official website of the National Defense University (NDU). This document is properly formatted and printed as a perfect sized copy 6x9".

This book was released on 1992 with total page 49 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In response to a request, the General Accounting Office has examined various issues relating to the professional military education activities at the joint schools of the National Defense University located at Fort McNair in Washington, D.C. This report addresses the Industrial College of the Armed Forces' implementation of 41 recommendations contained in the April 1989 report of the Panel on Military Education. These recommendations were developed to assist the Department of Defense (DOD) in improving its professional military education programs for officers. This report is the last in a series addressing the nature and extent of actions DOD has taken to improve its officer education at the service and joint schools. (See "Related GAO Products" at the end of this report.) A primary objective of the Goldwater-Nichols Reorganization Act of 1986 was to strengthen combined and joint operations of the various military services. To fulfill this objective, the House Armed Services Committee established the Panel on Military Education in November 1987 to report its findings and recommendations regarding DOD's ability to develop joint specialty officers through its professional military education systems. The Chairman, Joint Chiefs of Staff, established policies, programs, guidelines, and procedures concerning joint professional military education. In May 1990, he issued guidance in the "Chairman's Memorandum 344-90, Military Education Policy Document." While Panel recommendations are advisory, military education institutions are required to incorporate the Chairman's guidance into their own education systems. The professional military education system of DOD is composed of eight service schools and three joint schools.
