Download or read book Understanding Commanders Information Needs written by and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A commonly held belief within the Army is that commanders of higher-echelon units (Echelons Above Brigade, or EAB) often fail to obtain the information that they need. The problem is viewed as a function not so much of unavailable information as of getting the right information in the right form to the right place at the right time, to be used in the right way. In recent years, the Army has sponsored or conducted a variety of studies of varying methodological quality, all aimed at addressing the higher-echelon command-and-control problem These studies, most of which resulted in lists of commanders' information needs, have conceptual and methodological flaws that severely limit their usefulness. More important, we maintain that these studies have missed the main point of the problem. Commanders' information needs are rarely specific pieces of data but are instead highly variable and human-intensive elements. Therefore, any assessment of those needs must describe command-post information processing in a manner that captures the interactions between the commander and his staff in producing, transforming, and consuming information. Such a requirement implies, in turn, that information needs be examined from the dual perspective of information science and social psychology.
Download or read book Patton Third Army And Operational Maneuver written by Major Jack D. Flowers and published by Pickle Partners Publishing. This book was released on 2015-11-06 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On 16 December 1944, the German Army launched an offensive in the Ardennes to split Allied forces and retake the ports of Antwerp and Liege. The German advance split the XII Army forces and left the 101st Airborne Division surrounded at Bastogne. To relieve the encircled units in the Ardennes and defeat the German offensive, Third Army conducted an impressive counterattack into the flank of the Germans. The flexibility to turn ninety degrees during the worst winter in thirty-eight years and relieve the encircled forces stands out as one of the greatest operational maneuvers in history. While this operation is unique, the actions of the commander and staff that planned and executed it deserve closer analysis to determine what enabled them to orchestrate this maneuver. It is especially remarkable, when taken in context, how rapidly the Army changed during the previous four years. The US Army anticipating eventual war in Europe began a transformation which included drastic changes in force structure and doctrine. The primary transformation in doctrine was the revision of Field Service Regulation 100-5. The 1941 edition of 100-5 superseded a tentative version published in 1939 which was the first major revision of warfighting doctrine since 1923. It was with this manual that the Army went to war. It was also the manual used to train and teach new and reserve officers who had little experience in the study and practice of war. How important and to what extent did Patton’s Third Army apply the doctrine in conducting the Battle of the Bulge? Particularly relevant to serving officers today is to analyze the operations of Third Army in terms of doctrine that existed in 1944 and today’s current doctrine. An examination of similarities and differences between the doctrines may allow development of possible conclusions on the ability of future forces to conduct decisive maneuver in compressed time and space.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the late eighties and early nineties, driven by the post–Cold War environment and lessons learned during military operations, United States policy makers made intelligence support to the military the Intelligence Community's top priority. In response to this demand, the CIA and DoD instituted policy and organizational changes that altered their relationship with one another. While debates over the future of the Intelligence Community were occurring on Capitol Hill, the CIA and DoD were expanding their relationship in peacekeeping and nation-building operations in Somalia and the Balkans. By the late 1990s, some policy makers and national security professionals became concerned that intelligence support to military operations had gone too far. In Subordinating Intelligence: The DoD/CIA Post–Cold War Relationship, David P. Oakley reveals that, despite these concerns, no major changes to national intelligence or its priorities were implemented. These concerns were forgotten after 9/11, as the United States fought two wars and policy makers increasingly focused on tactical and operational actions. As policy makers became fixated with terrorism and the United States fought in Iraq and Afghanistan, the CIA directed a significant amount of its resources toward global counterterrorism efforts and in support of military operations.
