Joint Doctrine Publications The successful conduct of military operations requires an intellectually rigorous, clearly articulated and empirically-based framework of understanding that gives advantage to a country’s Armed Forces, and its likely partners, in the management of conflict. This common basis of understanding is provided by doctrine. UK doctrine is, as far as practicable and sensible, consistent with that of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO). The development of national doctrine addresses those areas not covered adequately by NATO; it also influences the evolution of NATO doctrine in accordance with national thinking and experience. Endorsed national doctrine is promulgated formally in JDPs.1 From time to time, Interim JDPs (IJDPs) are published, caveated to indicate the need for their subsequent revision in light of anticipated changes in relevant policy or legislation, or lessons arising out of operations. Urgent requirements for doctrine are addressed through Joint Doctrine Notes (JDNs). To ensure timeliness, they are not subject to the rigorous staffing processes applied to JDPs, particularly in terms of formal external approval. Raised by the DCDC, they seek to capture and disseminate best practice or articulate doctrinal solutions which can subsequently be developed in due course as more formal doctrine. Alternatively, a JDN may be issued to place some doctrinal markers in the sand, around which subsequent debate can centre. Details of the joint doctrine development process and the associated hierarchy of JDPs are to be found in JDP 0-00 Joint Doctrine Development Handbook. 1 Formerly named Joint Warfare Publications (JWPs).

Joint Doctrine Publication (JDP) 0-01 British Defence Doctrine (BDD) (4th Edition) describes crisis management (a cross-government endeavour that is often multinational as well as multi-agency) and the circumstances under which UK Armed Forces contribute. JDP 01 Campaigning addresses the military contribution from the perspective of the Joint Task Force Commander (JTFC).1 Based on good practice developed during recent UK and coalition operations, JDP 5-00 Campaign Planning describes the process of Defence crisis management and the fundamentals of operational-level planning. With JDP 2-00 Understanding and Intelligence Support to Operations and JDP 3-00 Campaign Execution, underpinned by JDP 01 Campaigning, it provides authoritative guidance on the conduct of joint operations. 2. JDP 5-00 (2nd Edition, Change 2) is not a major rewrite. Instead it: incorporates the amendments proposed in 2nd Edition Change 1; provides updated doctrine on the joint action model to ensure coherence with JDP 3-00 Campaign Execution (3rd Edition, Change 1)2; and includes reference to the National Security Council and its role in strategic direction. The discussion on centre of gravity has also been updated. The forthcoming revision (2013) of the Allied Command Operations Comprehensive Operations Planning Directive (COPD) Interim V1.0 published in December 2010,3 and the ratification of Allied Joint Doctrine for Operational-Level Planning (Allied Joint Publication 5(AJP-5)4) have allowed the removal of the supplement on the NATO planning process. Similarly, the re-issue of USA Joint Operation Planning, (Joint Publication 5-0 (JP-5)5), on 11 August 2011 has encouraged the removal of the supplement on USA planning; JP-5 Executive Summary, Commander’s Overview, provides an excellent synopsis for reference. The supplement on planning with other government departments has been updated. 1 ‘The operational commander of a nominated joint force’, Joint Doctrine Publication (JDP) 0-01.1 United Kingdom Supplement to the NATO Terminology Database (8th Edition). 2 Promulgated in July 2012. 3 Allied Command Operations Comprehensive Operations Planning Directive, COPD Interim V1.0.

  • THE BRITISH ARMY in the LOW COUNTRIES, 1793-1814 By
    ‘FAIRLY OUT-GENERALLED AND DISGRACEFULLY BEATEN’: THE BRITISH ARMY IN THE LOW COUNTRIES, 1793-1814 by ANDREW ROBERT LIMM A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY.

ABSTRACT The history of the British Army in the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars is generally associated with stories of British military victory and the campaigns of the Duke of Wellington. An intrinsic aspect of the historiography is the argument that, following British defeat in the Low Countries in 1795, the Army was transformed by the military reforms of His Royal Highness, Frederick Duke of York. This thesis provides a critical appraisal of the reform process with reference to the organisation, structure, ethos and learning capabilities of the British Army and evaluates the impact of the reforms upon British military performance in the Low Countries, in the period 1793 to 1814, via a series of narrative reconstructions. This thesis directly challenges the transformation argument and provides a re-evaluation of British military competency in the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars.

  • Military Strategy: the Blind Spot of International Humanitarian Law

The author would like to thank Eyal Benvenisti, Gabriella Blum, Moshe Halbertal, Eliav Lieblich, David Kretzmer, and Kenneth Watkin for their useful comments, and Ohad Abrahami for his research assistance. © 2017 by the President and Fellows of Harvard College and Yishai Beer. 334 2017 / Military Strategy: The Blind Spot of International Humanitarian Law Abstract The stated agenda of international humanitarian law (IHL) is to humanize war’s arena. Since it is the strategic level of war that primarily affects war’s conduct, one might have expected that the law would focus upon it. Paradoxically, the current law generally ignores the strategic discourse and prefers to scrutinize the conduct of war through a tactical lens. This disregard of military strategy has a price that is demonstrated in the prevailing law of targeting. This Article challenges the current blind spot of IHL: its disregard of the direct consequences of war strategy and the war aims deriving from it. It asks those who want to comprehensively reduce war’s hazards to think strategically and to leverage military strategy as a constraining tool. The effect of the suggested approach is demonstrated through an analysis of targeting rules, where the restrictive attributes of military strategy, which could play a significant role in limiting targeting, have been overlooked.

  • The Case for Campaign Analysis: a Method for Studying Military Operations
    The Case for Campaign Analysis: A Method for Studying Military Operations Rachel Tecott Andrew Halterman 30 September 2020 Abstract Understanding military operations, from armored warfare to nuclear counterforce strikes to humanitarian response, is fundamental to international relations theory and practice. Although scholars have studied military operations for decades, there is little methodological guidance to direct their analysis or to help them leverage analysis to ad- dress broader theoretical questions. Campaign analysis is a method that involves the use of a model and techniques for managing uncertainty to answer questions about military operations. In this article, we define campaign analysis, standardize the method, provide methodological guidance, and illustrate the promise of the method for academic theory. We identify six core steps of the method: 1) question selection, 2) scenario development, 3) model construction, 4) value assignment, 5) sensitivity analysis, and 6) interpretation and presentation of results. Additionally, we recommend that scholars elevate the mod- els they build in their analyses as a central contribution of their work, and we recommend a new technique for propagating uncertainty in inputs through to a model’s output. We then conduct replications and extensions of two existing campaign analyses in order to illustrate the six steps of campaign analysis, the value of the two recommendations, and the promise of campaign analysis as a technique for improved measurement of variables central to international relations theories. Rachel Tecott is a PhD Candidate in Political Science at MIT and a member of MIT’s Security Studies Program. For the 2020-2021 academic year, she is a pre-doctoral fellow at the Institute for Security and Conflict Studies (ISCS) at the Elliott School of International Affairs at George Washington University.

  • Sherman's March to the Sea 1864: Atlanta to Savannah, (Osprey, 2007)
    FROM THE HISTORY CHANNEL® A SPECIAL PRESENTATION SHERMAN’S MARCH In November of 1864, Union General William Tecumseh Sherman launched a new kind of military campaign. After three years of battle and over 350,000 casualties, the Civil War burned on, with no possibility of end on the horizon. General Sherman, a man who had been plagued by difficulty and self-doubt, saw a vision for how he could both bring and end to the war, and recuperate his stature as a military leader. Sherman’s plan was to destroy the Confederate infrastructure and finally bring an end to the war. Sherman’s March tells the story of how this vision unfolded, and the dramatic human consequences of the campaign known as Sherman’s “March to the Sea.” This program traces the path of the general and his troops as they blazed through the South after strategically torching Atlanta. The story follows Sherman and his army of over 60,000 men as they set off on a trail South, with the goal of ravaging key Southern military strongholds. They achieved victory in Savannah, Georgia before moving up the coast to seize key posts in South and North Carolina. Sherman ordered his troops to burn crops, confiscate supplies, destroy buildings, and rip up rail tracks--anything that could be considered useful to the Confederates was utterly pulverized in the process. Civilian homes were plundered and destroyed during the march, leading to tremendous criticism of this new form of battle Sherman dubbed “total warfare.” Sherman’s March, a two hour special presentation, draws upon new scholarship and uses innovative filming techniques to retell the story of the enigmatic general and his controversial military tactics.

  • Civil War Soldier Buried at St. Paul's Fought with Two Zouave Regiments
    Civil War Soldier Buried at St. Paul’s fought with two Zouave regiments and served with Commissary By David Osborn Site Manager, St. Paul’s Church National Historic Site June 2012 James Hyde served with two distinctly uniformed regiments in the Civil War, while also helping to feed the Union troops. After returning to civilian life, he worked on some of New York City’s earliest highways before passing in 1923, an octogenarian, followed by interment at the St. Paul’s cemetery. An urgent recruitment drive in the summer of 1862, required because of Confederate victories in the Virginia fighting of May through August, gathered many volunteers from the St. Paul’s area, including Hyde, who was 22, living with his parents and many siblings. While most of these young men enrolled in newly formed units, he enlisted for three years on August 19 with the 5th New York Volunteer Infantry, which incurred heavy losses at the Battles of the Seven Days. Hyde was likely captivated by the regiment’s characteristic Zouave appearance, modeled on the legendary Algerian fighters, generating a maverick reputation. Even in the 19th century, prior to the emergence of mass media, daily newspapers and periodicals spread the word about the charismatic infantry unit. James was the sole Hyde out of five brothers (three older and one younger) to volunteer for the military campaign to preserve the Union, indicating a level of family disagreement over the war. The raw, grey-eyed Westchester County native joined the fighting at one of the critical stretches of the great national conflict, marching through fields and along dirt roads in Zouave baggy red pants and open blue shirts.
