    INTIMIDATING THE WORLD: THE UNITED STATES ATOMIC ARMY, 1956-1960 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Paul C. Jussel, B.A., M.M.A.S., M.S.S. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2004 Dissertation Committee Approved by Professor Allan R. Millett, Advisor Professor John R. Guilmartin __________________ Professor William R. Childs Advisor Department of History ABSTRACT The atomic bomb created a new military dynamic for the world in 1945. The bomb, if used properly, could replace the artillery fires and air-delivered bombs used to defeat the concentrated force of an enemy. The weapon provided the U.S. with an unparalleled advantage over the rest of the world, until the Soviet Union developed its own bomb by 1949 and symmetry in warfare returned. Soon, theories of warfare changed to reflect the belief that the best way to avoid the effects of the bomb was through dispersion of forces. Eventually, the American Army reorganized its divisions from the traditional three-unit organization to a new five-unit organization, dubbed pentomic by its Chief of Staff, General Maxwell D. Taylor. While atomic weapons certainly had an effect on Taylor’s reasoning to adopt the pentomic organization, the idea was not new in 1956; the Army hierarchy had been wrestling with restructuring since the end of World War II. Though the Korean War derailed the Army’s plans for the early fifties, it returned to the forefront under the Eisenhower Administration. The driving force behind reorganization in 1952 was not ii only the reoriented and reduced defense budget, but also the Army’s inroads to the atomic club, formerly the domain of only the Air Force and the Navy.

  • Chapter 6 the EARLY MODERN BRIGADE, 1958-1972 Pentomic
    Chapter 6 THE EARLY MODERN BRIGADE, 1958-1972 Pentomic Era Following World War II, the US Army retained the organizational structures, with minor modifications, which had won that war. This organization—which did not include a maneuver unit called the brigade after the two brigades in the 1st Cavalry Division were eliminated in 1949—was also used to fight the Korean War in 1950-1953. Despite the success of the triangular infantry division in two wars, the Army radically changed the structure in 1958 by converting the infantry division to what became known as the Pentomic Division. Ostensively, the Pentomic structure was designed to allow infantry units to survive and fight on an atomic battlefield. Structurally it eliminated the regiment and battalion, replacing both with five self- contained “battlegroups,” each of which were larger than an old style battalion, but smaller than a regiment. A full colonel commanded the battlegroup and his captains commanded four, later five, subordinate rifle companies. The Pentomic Division structurally reflected that of the World War II European theater airborne divisions. This was no surprise since three European airborne commanders dominated the Army’s strategic thinking after the Korean War: Army Chief of Staff General Matthew Ridgway, Eighth Army commander General Maxwell Taylor, and VII Corps commander Lieutenant General James Gavin. Though theoretically triangular in design, the two airborne divisions Ridgway, Taylor, and Gavin commanded in the war, the 82d and 101st, fought as division task forces reinforced with additional parachute regiments and separate battalions. For most of the Northern European campaign, both divisions had two additional parachute regiments attached to them, giving them five subordinate regiments, each commanded by colonels.

  • GGD-97-86S World Wide Web Sites: Reported by 42 Federal
    United States General Accounting Office GAO Supplement June 1997 World Wide Web Sites Reported by Federal Organizations GAO/GGD-97-86S Preface This publication supplements our report entitled Internet and Electronic Dial-Up Bulletin Boards: Information Reported by Federal Organizations (GAO/GGD-97-86, June 16, 1997). It contains a listing of approximately 4,300 World Wide Web (WWW) sites that 42 federal organizations reported to us. The definition of a WWW site can vary. Because we were requested by the Chairmen of the Senate Committee on Appropriations and the Senate Committee on Governmental Affairs to identify the number of distinct WWW sites and to encourage consistent reporting, we defined a WWW site as a file or group of files organized under a homepage, that is accessible on the Internet using web browser software. A WWW site’s homepage is typically the index, welcome, or menu page for a distinct WWW activity or service. As expected, federal organizations reported a large number of WWW sites that reflect the large number of activities within the federal government. Although we contacted federal organizations where we had questions concerning whether they understood our definition of a WWW site, due to the large number of reported WWW sites, we could not verify that all federal organizations used our definition. Furthermore, some federal organizations reported that the list they provided of their WWW sites was not in accordance with our definition or was not complete. Some reported that they do not track this type of information and to obtain these data would have involved a major data collection effort.

  • Profile of the United States Army (1993)
    PROFILE OF THE ARMY A Reference Handbook FOREWORD This revised PROFILE OF THE ARMY is published by the Association of the United States Army's Institute of Land Warfare to provide a basic reference handbook about the U.S. Army. It provides a description of the organization and missions of the Army as well as some insight into the role of the Army in our national security strategy. This handbook is intended for briefing purposes, but it will also serve as a ready reference on the constitutional basis for our Armed Forces, the organization of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and the functions, components and branches of the Army. We show how the Army currently allocates its human and financial resources and provide information on where the Army is headed in the future and how it intends to get there. At the back of the handbook, we have appended descriptions of Army rank insignia, a list of major Army installations by congressional district, and some demographic information about soldiers. The Institute of Land Warfare welcomes your comments and suggestions concern­ ing this effort. JACK N.
