  • Defense at the Forward Edge of the Battle Or Rather in the Depth? Different Approaches to Implement NATO’S Operation Plans by the Alliance Partners, 1955-1988
    Journal of Military and Strategic VOLUME 15, ISSUE 3, 2014 Studies Defense at the Forward Edge of the Battle or rather in the Depth? Different approaches to implement NATO’s operation plans by the alliance partners, 1955-1988 LTC Helmut R. Hammerich Military historians love studying battles. For this purpose, they evaluate operation plans and analyze how these plans were executed on the battlefield. The battle history of the Cold War focuses first and foremost on the planning for the nuclear clash between NATO and the Warsaw Pact. Although between 1945 and 1989-90 the world saw countless hot wars on the periphery of the Cold War, the “Cold World War,” as the German historian Jost Dülffer termed it, is best examined through the operational plans of the military alliances for what would have been World War Three. To conduct such an analysis we must consider Total War under nuclear conditions. Analyzing the war planning, however, is far from easy. The main difficulty lies in access to the files. The records of both the Warsaw Pact and NATO are still largely classified and therefore relatively inaccessible. Nor is access to the archives in Moscow two decades after glasnost and perestroika at all encouraging. At the request of historians, NATO has begun to declassify some of its key documents. Nonetheless, the specific details of the nuclear operational planning will continue to remain inaccessible to historians for the foreseeable future. As an alternative, historians then are forced to rely on collateral documents in the various national archives or on the compilations of ©Centre of Military and Strategic Studies, 2014 ISSN : 1488-559X VOLUME 15, ISSUE 3, 2014 diverse oral history projects.

  • Factors Affecting the Feasibility of a Warsaw Pact Invasion of Western Europe (April 2008)
    FACTORS AFFECTING THE FEASIBILITY OF A WARSAW PACT INVASION OF WESTERN EUROPE A Senior Honors Thesis by Corbin Williamson Submitted to the Office of Honors Programs Texas A&M University In partial fulfillment of the requirements of the UNIVERSITY UNDERGRADUATE RESEARCH FELLOWS April 2008 Major: History ii ABSTRACT Factors Affecting the Feasibility of a Warsaw Pact Invasion of Western Europe (April 2008) Corbin Williamson Department of History Texas A&M University Fellows Advisor: Dr. Donald Curtis Department of History The end of the Cold War and the opening of selected archives in both Eastern and Western Europe provide scholars the opportunity to study this period with greater accuracy and detail than was previously possible. This study sought to determine the feasibility of a Warsaw Pact invasion of Western Europe in 1987 through the examination of the factors that would have affected such an operation. The factors are the reliability of military allies, the potential for the use of nuclear weapons, Warsaw Pact strategy, North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) strategy, operations on Europe’s flanks, naval operations, aerial operations, reinforcement and mobilization, readiness, terrain and weather, and ground forces. These factors were examined through iii the use of secondary literature on military forces in the Cold War as well as primary sources such as government documents and publications. After each of these factors have been analyzed then conclusions will be drawn about the probable course of such a conflict in Central Europe. The argument will be made that nuclear weapons would not have been used in the first stages of a war by NATO or the Warsaw Pact.
