  • America's Color Coded War Plans and the Evolution of Rainbow Five
    TABLE OF CONTENTS: INTRODUCTION 1 CHAPTER I: THE MONROE DOCTRINE AND MILITARY PLANNING 8 CHAPTER II: MANIFEST DESTINY AND MILITARY PLANNING 42 CHAPTER III: THE EVOLUTION OF RAINBOW FIVE 74 CONCLUSION 119 BIBLIOGRAPHY 124 INTRODUCTION: During World War II, U.S. military forces pursued policies based in large part on the Rainbow Five war plan. Louis Morton argued in Strategy and Command: The First Two Years that “The early war plans were little more than abstract exercises and bore little relation to actual events.” 1 However, this thesis will show that the long held belief that the early war plans devised in the late 19 th and earlier 20 th centuries were exercises in futility is a mistaken one. The early color coded war plans served purposes far beyond that of just exercising the minds and intellect of the United States most gifted and talented military leaders. Rather, given the demands imposed by advances in military warfare and technology, contingency war planning was a necessary precaution required of all responsible powers at the dawn of the 20 th century. Also contrary to previous assumptions, America’s contingency war planning was a realistic response to the course of domestic and international affairs. The advanced war plan scenarios were based on actual real world alliances and developments in international relations, this truth defies previous criticisms that early war planners were not cognizant of world affairs or developments in U.S. bilateral relations with other nations. 2 This thesis reveals that the U.S. military’s color coded war plans were part of a clear, continuous evolution of American military strategy culminating in the creation of Rainbow Five, the Allied plan for victory during the Second World War.

THE ORGANIZATION OF AMERICAN STATES AND THE MONROE DOCTRINE-LEGAL IMPLICATIONS Ann Van Wynen Thomas* A. J. Thomas, Jr.** BACKGROUND A discussion of the Monroe Doctrine today is approached with some trepidation by the wary, for the revered dogma ("I believe in the Monroe Doctrine, in our Constitution and in the laws of God") 1 often described as "the first and most fundamental" of the foreign policies of the United States and a protector of the Western Hemisphere from extracontinental aggression has,2 in recent years, been subjected to bitter attack. It has been called moribund, obsolete, verbiage,3 a name so hateful to Latin Ameri- the United States fears to mention it much less in- can ears that 4 voke it because of its abrasive effect on continental relations. Possibly the most devastating assault emanated from Mr. Khru- shchev of the Soviet Union when he proclaimed: "We consider that the Monroe Doctrine has outlived its time .

  • The Cold War and Latin American Relations * I Am
    THE COLD WAR AND LATIN AMERICAN RELATIONS * AM GOING to discuss with you today a subject very I close to my heart, one of vital importance to the United States and to everyone concerned with our welfare and des- tiny. My topic is the doctrine of internationalism, and per- haps this Sunday afternoon faculty lecture series may be a fitting opportunity to mount the pulpit and preach an hour's sermon on a gospel so widely shared among contemporary American historians and political scientists. In today's world it is impractical, if not completely impos- sible, for anyone who lives in our country and who takes an active interest in global affairs to be a thorough-going isola- tionist. The school of thought which in the disillusioning days after Versailles produced William E. Borah and other Senate irreconcilabIes has now been superseded by a new genera- tion which realizes that American concerns no longer stop at the water's edge. Today's leaders see that a nation with our tremendous powers and potentialities can not be retiring, smug, and self-centered. The Joseph Kennedys and the America Firsters who opposed international commitments in the 1930's and early 1940's in the face of the menace to world peace posed by the Axis powers are now an insignifi- cant determinant in the shaping of our foreign policy, al- though it is true, as professional worriers constantly remind us, that a core of diehards still remains. The proof of &is remarkable growth in national maturity (and I use that word advisedly) can be well exemplified by the careers of two able and well-known gentlemen from * A public lecture delivered at the Rice Institute on November 14, 6954.
