{"product_id":"2940148679639","title":"The Evolution of US Army Tactical Doctrine","description":"In June 1979, the Combat Studies institute was formed within the US\u003cbr\u003eArmy Command and General Staff College. Among its several missions, the\u003cbr\u003einstitute is charged by the commander, US Army Training and Doctrine\u003cbr\u003eCommand, to undertake historical research into problems having a bearing\u003cbr\u003eupon the concerns of the modern Army and to disseminate\u003cbr\u003eresearch throughout the Army. Major Robert A. Doughty’s,\u003cbr\u003eUS Army Tactical Doctrine, 7946-76, is the first of a series\u003cbr\u003ethe Leavenworth Papers to be published under the auspices\u003cbr\u003eReview.\u003cbr\u003eIt is fitting that this inaugural study of the Combat Studies the fruits of this The Evolution of of studies called of the Military Institute should focus upon the formulation of doctrine since World War II. In no comparable period in history have the dimensions of the battlefield been so altered by\u003cbr\u003erapid technological changes. The need for the tactical doctrines of the Army to\u003cbr\u003eremain correspondingly abreast of these changes is thus more pressing than\u003cbr\u003eever before.\u003cbr\u003eFuture conflicts are not likely to develop in the leisurely fashions of the\u003cbr\u003epast where tactical doctrines could be refined on the battlefield itself. It is,\u003cbr\u003etherefore, imperative that we apprehend future problems with as much\u003cbr\u003eaccuracy as possible. One means of doing so is to pay particular attention to\u003cbr\u003ethe business of how the Army’s doctrine has developed historically, with a\u003cbr\u003eview to improving methods of future development. This study is the first step\u003cbr\u003ealong the road.","brand":"ReadCycle","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47108823220464,"sku":"2940148679639","price":2.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940148679639_p0.jpg?v=1763706693","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940148679639","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
