{"product_id":"2940148880196","title":"UNIT RECONSTITUTION - A HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE","description":"in an ongoing CAORA study of the reconstitution of units. CAORA members ^\u003cbr\u003efocused on several questions. These were: - --'\u003cbr\u003ea) What criteria might a commander use to withdraw a unit from combat\u003cbr\u003eoperations; what criteria constitute grounds for the commander to recommend\u003cbr\u003ea unit be withdrawn from combat?\u003cbr\u003eb) Mow does the distribution of casualties within a particular unit\u003cbr\u003eaffect unit reconstitution?\u003cbr\u003ec) What is the logistical system's response to personnel or equipment\u003cbr\u003elosses much above anticipated levels--the reaction -to \"surge\" casualties\u003cbr\u003ewhen reconstituting units? CAORA also requested a comparative historical\u003cbr\u003ebackground of unit reconstitution in the 20th century be included in CSI's\u003cbr\u003efinal report.\u003cbr\u003eWithin these zuidelines, the following -methodology is employed. The\u003cbr\u003edefinitions-reconstitution, regeneration, sustaining- support 4 replacement,\u003cbr\u003ereorganization, redistributed, resupply--are used in the context related in\u003cbr\u003eChapter 4, of CAORA's \"Current Reconstitution Concept,\" and' are attached asappendix\u003cbr\u003e1. This study proceeds from the general description of the unit\u003cbr\u003ereconstitution system used in the two world wars to the particular\u003cbr\u003ereconstitution of the 28th Infantry Division during and after the Schmidt,\u003cbr\u003eGermany operation of November 1944. There is also a brief description of\u003cbr\u003eIsraeli Armv reconstitution procedures on the Sinai front in the 1973\u003cbr\u003eMid-Mast War, and the U.S. Army's experience in Vietnam.\u003cbr\u003eThe historical examples from World War I and World War II illustrate the\u003cbr\u003eorocess of unit reconstitution and provide clues about general criteria\u003cbr\u003ewhich may be useful in identifying units in need of reconstitution. A brief\u003cbr\u003eoverview of the British, French, German, and American schemes for unit\u003cbr\u003ereconstitution in that those conflicts provides a comparative historical\u003cbr\u003ebasis. The French experience in World War I is most instructive because the\u003cbr\u003eFrench high command regenerated an entire army after the 1917 military\u003cbr\u003emutinies. In -the World War II and Israeli examples, unit reconstitution for\u003cbr\u003earmored forces receives attention.","brand":"ReadCycle","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47067894841584,"sku":"2940148880196","price":2.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940148880196_p0.jpg?v=1763709307","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940148880196","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
