Robert Zarate interviewed me for nearly 2 hours. It was clear from the questions that he asked me that his interest in the Wohlstetters’ work was more than casual. After Robert’s initial visit, he called me again several times to clarify and pursue additional questions. I recommended other experts who had worked with or studied under the Wohlstetters for him to interview. Harry Rowen, my former Defense Department boss, was one. Andrew Marshall, at the Pentagon’s Office of Net Assessment, was another. Both had worked closely with Albert and Roberta at RAND. Later, Harry and I contacted Joan Wohlstetter, Albert and Roberta’s daughter, and persuaded her to make her parents’ private papers at the Hoover Institution’s archives available to Robert. These papers are now open to the public, and some of them are included in this edited volume. Robert’s visits to Washington multiplied as he interviewed more of Albert’s former protégés, as well as his critics. In 2006, I asked Robert if he would be willing to help out at my nonprofit research organization, the Nonproliferation Policy Education Center (NPEC). He immediately agreed and assumed responsibility for completing research that had already been begun by Paul Lettow on the meaning of “nuclear energy for peaceful purposes” in the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty. Although Robert was planning to write a comprehensive biography of Albert Wohlstetter, I encouraged him instead to publish short pieces on the Wohlstetters. His success here led to the next suggestion: an edited volume of Albert and Roberta’s key writings relating to nuclear proliferation and national security affairs, with commentaries by the Wohlstetters’ colleagues and students. I worked with him to develop a grant proposal. vii The result is this volume, which is designed not as a eulogy or a Festschrift, but as a testament to the continuing relevance of the work of Albert and Roberta Wohlstetter in the fields of nuclear and security policy analysis. Albert and Roberta wrote hundreds of articles and studies on U.S. policy on the Balkans, as well as the Persian Gulf; strategic command and control; intelligence and warning; NATO nuclear planning; U.S.-Russian arms control; strategic and theater missile defenses; the economics and military dangers of civilian nuclear energy; nuclear safeguards and nuclear nonproliferation; and military nuclear strategy and methods of policy analysis and design. Their contributions to and influence in these areas of policy were considerable. As a result, it simply is not possible to include in a single volume all of the studies and writings that one would need in order to cover the full extent of their work. Still, publishing selections of their most important writ- ings is worthwhile. Increased concern about

Stubbe recalls enlisting in the Navy Reserves before his senior year of high school and attending a two-week boot camp at Great Lakes Naval Training Center (Illinois). After graduating high school, he was assigned to active duty on the USS Noa , where he served on the deck force for two years before attending Yeo- man “A” School at Bainbridge (Maryland) and becoming a Yeoman Third Class.

While at the seminary, Stubbe describes attending Navy Chaplains School, which he calls “boot camp for ministers,” in Newport (Rhode Island). Following the seminary, Stubbe went to the University of Chicago Theological School to get a Ph.D. in Ethics and Society; however, he left after one year because the Navy needed chaplains in Vietnam.

  • The Conference of Experts
    Chapter III The Conference of Experts I The Context-1958 The developments which began to take shape in 1957 continued their course with little change in the first half of 1958, and pre­ determined in large measure both the nature of the next negotiating forum and the subject matter for the negotiations. Due to the refusal by the Soviet Union to accept the new composition of the United Nations Disarmament Commission, there was no agreed forum for continuing arms control and disarmament negotiations. In mid-February the Japanese government began to explore with other governments the possibility of convening a meeting of the Disarmament Commission, but this initiative was abandoned when on March 14, the USSR reiterated its refusal to participate in the Commission as long as the majority of its mem­ bers belonged to Western military alliances. The impasse thus re­ mained and could not be broken within the context of the decisions of the twelfth Assembly. The pressure against the testing of nuclear weapons also con­ tinued unabated. Indeed, on the first day of 1958, the Afro-Asian Solidarity Conference, meeting in Cairo, adopted a declaration which among other things called for a cessation of further tests. 1 On January 13, Linus Pauling presented his petition urging an immediate accord to halt tests, now signed by more than nine thou­ sand scientists from forty-three countries, to the Secretary General of the United Nations. On February 1, The Council of the Federa­ tion of American Scientists adopted a statement favoring a test ban which would cover even the smaller nuclear weapons and asserting that an appropriate control system could easily be established.2 ISee New York Times, January 2, 1958, p.

    OUTLIHE OP PRINCIPAL EHVEHTS IK THE DEVELOPMENT OF SHAPE ' ' Marshal-Montgomery and Joint American Military Advisory Group (JAMAG,— Major General Kibler} point up necessity for t3.élgg together the three European Regional Planning Groups, and creating a command organization under a supreme commander. HATO. Military and Defense Committees met in Washing- ton, D. C. Principal items of business on the agenda con- sisted of German Rearmament, U. S. Reinforcement of Europe, and appointment of a Supreme Commander of Europe. Although progress on these issues which U.S. insisted he treated as a "package proposal" was blocked by refusal of the French Defense Minister (Mr. Moch) to dlsnusa any but the French integrated European Army scheme. Informal discussions were held concerning the designation of a Supreme Commander. Concensus of opinion among the Defense Ministers indicated that the Commander of American nationality was desired* General Eisenhower's name was entered for consideration. U. S. Joint Chiefs of Staff, the Standing Group of HATO, and the NATO- Nations, through defense channels indicated acceptability of General Elsenhower as Supreme Commander, Europe. Informal approval of President Truman likewise obtained. JÎS initially, approached the problem of a Supreme Allied Commander on the basis that there should first be established a COSSAC headed by a Chief of Staff agreeable in advance to the Supreme Cpmraender.
