Military Aviation: Issues and Options for Combating Terrorism and Counterinsurgency
Order Code RL32737 CRS Report for Congress Received through the CRS Web Military Aviation: Issues and Options for Combating Terrorism and Counterinsurgency January 27, 2006 Christopher Bolkcom Specialist in National Defense Foreign Affairs, Defense, and Trade Division Kenneth Katzman Specialist in Middle East Affairs Foreign Affairs, Defense, and Trade Division Congressional Research Service ˜ The Library of Congress Military Aviation: Issues and Options for Combating Terrorism Summary By all accounts, the U.S. military dominates state-on-state conflict. In the past, non-state actors (terrorists, guerrillas, drug traffickers) appeared to be less threatening to U.S. national security than the well funded, well organized, and potent armed forces of an enemy nation-state. The terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 illustrate, however, that small groups of non-state actors can exploit relatively inexpensive and commercially available technology to conduct very destructive attacks over great distances. Today’s U.S. armed forces were developed principally with state-on-state conflict in mind. Combating non-state actors, however, presents a number of distinct challenges in terms of operations, cost, and mindset. Non-state actors generally strive to hide within civilian populations. While U.S. policy makers typically seek quick and decisive victories, non-state actors seek protracted war. Non-state actors often employ cheap, commercially available weapons, that often result in expensive responses by the United States. Many of the weapons and methods employed today by U.S. armed forces can be used against non-state actors. Some, however, are more directly applicable than others. U.S. experience in conducting close air support (CAS), employing special operations forces (SOF) and advising friendly governments in using aviation to defend themselves from insurgents and terrorists may form a basis for building capabilities against non-state actors. -

Sea Names Categories and Their Implications
Sea Names Categories and Their Implications Ferian Onneling (Pro!essor, Utrecht Uolvetsity, The Netherlands) Abstract Taking account of the fact that usually water bodies would be named later than the land areas around them or within them, instrumental or locational connotations and the conditions (or the navigators would be the main naming concerns: attributes of the sea, directions, or ports or countries (OT the peoples living on their shores) aimed fOf. The only exception to this general trend would be the seas, gulfs and straits named. for navigators. This is not to be wondered at, since it was a marine commuirlty that Was instrumental in gi ving these names. The names that do not fit in this general model look artificial 10 this 1 '1 marine environment, and give the impression of office names, generally created 1 long after their discovery. Alboran Sea, Bismarck Sea, Cantabrian Sea, Celtic Sea, Iceland Sea, Irrninger Sea, Mar Argentina, Norwegian Sea, Peter the Great 1 Bay and Philippine Sea are examples. i ! Introduction It is my intention to' distinguish a number of categories of sea names, based on the type of referent they were named for. I will do so in order to get some insight in the naming mechanisms and in order to work out their implications for the present. I am not a names specialist but a goo- cartographer who uses maps as a place names source, Most sea names can be categorised into one of the following categories: 1) Seas named for cardinal directions - 22- 2) Seas named for nations 3) Seas named for persons 4) Seas named for places 5) Seas named for attributes 6) Seas named for rivers flowing into them 7) Seas named fOT adjacent areas 8) Seas named for countries These categories are not only applied to sea names - there is no , minimum size for a named water body to qualify as a sea, neither is there for gulfs or bays, although genera11y the hierarchy is understood to be ocean - sea - gulf - bay in descending order. -
Wau and the Bismarck Se A
CHAPTER 3 2 WAU AND THE BISMARCK SE A HE defeat of the Japanese both in Papua and Guadalcanal represente d T the accomplishment of Task I as set out in the Joint Chiefs of Staff directive of 2nd July 1942. It will be recalled that Task II in this directiv e was the ejection of the Japanese from New Guinea and the investment o f the northern Solomons. The primary responsibility for this task was placed on General MacArthur who, for its purposes, was to have supreme com- mand; supreme command, that is, on the western front with COMSOPAC undertaking the detailed planning on the Solomons front, but acceptin g MacArthur's authority for the coordination and timing of the operations . Already, in February, MacArthur was planning for a series of advance s that would take him back to the Philippines—planning that would be put into action long after the period with which this volume deals . Meanwhile he and General Kenney had to contend with the immediate reaction of the Japanese to their defeat in Papua . Since that defeat the only Allied land force immediately in contact wit h the enemy in the Pacific areas was the Australian Kanga Force, in th e Wau-Salamaua-Lae area . At the end of August the Japanese had pushed forward a strong force to Mubo, about 12 miles south-south-west of Sala- maua, and Kanga Force had withdrawn its main base to Kudjeru at th e start of the Bulldog Track, a route which had always been of tactical sig- nificance because of the likelihood of its use by the Japanese as an approac h to Port Moresby. -

Mahnken: Transforming the U.S. Armed Forces TRANSFORMING THE U.S. ARMED FORCES Rhetoric or Reality? Thomas G. Mahnken he leadership of the Defense Department has enthusiastically endorsed the Tproposition that the growth and diffusion of stealth, precision, and informa- tion technology will drastically alter the character and conduct of future wars, yielding a revolution in military affairs. President George W. Bush campaigned on a pledge to transform the U.S. armed forces by “skipping a generation” of technology. A month after assuming office, he promised in a speech at the Norfolk Naval Base to “move beyond marginal improvements to harness new technolo- gies that will support a new strategy.” He called for the development of ground forces that are lighter, more mobile, and more lethal, as well as manned and un- manned air forces capable of striking across the globe with precision.1 Dr. -

No. 83 AUGUST 2011 The Professional Military Ethic and Political Dissent: Has the Line Moved? Eric A. Hollister The Professional Military Ethic and Political Dissent: Has the Line Moved? by Eric A. Hollister The Institute of Land Warfare ASSOCIATION OF THE UNITED STATES ARMY AN INSTITUTE OF LAND WARFARE PAPER The purpose of the Institute of Land Warfare is to extend the educational work of AUSA by sponsoring scholarly publications, to include books, monographs and essays on key defense issues, as well as workshops and symposia. A work selected for publication as a Land Warfare Paper represents research by the author which, in the opinion of ILW’s editorial board, will contribute to a better understanding of a particular defense or national security issue. Publication as an Institute of Land Warfare Paper does not indicate that the Association of the United States Army agrees with everything in the paper, but does suggest that the Association believes the paper will stimulate the thinking of AUSA members and others concerned about important defense issues.
