  • 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.

  • (1830-1860) the Theme of America's Manifest Destiny Was Used by a Host of Supporters of Territorial Expansion After the Term Was Penned by John Sullivan in 1845
    TERRITORAL AND ECONOMIC EXPANSION (1830-1860) The theme of America's manifest destiny was used by a host of supporters of territorial expansion after the term was penned by John Sullivan in 1845. It spread across the land as the rallying cry for westward expansion. At first, in the 1840s and 1850s, expansionists wanted to see the United States extend westward all the way to the Pacific and southward into Mexico, Cuba, & even Central America. In the 1890s, expansionists fixed their signs on acquiring islands in the Pacific & the Caribbean. The phrase "manifest destiny" expressed the popular belief that the United States had a divine mission to extend its power and civilization across North America. Enthusiasm for expansion reached a high in the 1840s. It was driven by a number of forces: nationalism, population increase, rapid economic development, technological advances, and reform ideals. But by no means were all Americans united behind the idea of manifest destiny and expansionism. Northern critics argued that at the root of the expansionist drive was the southern ambition to spread slavery into western lands. CONFLICTS OVER TEXAS, MAINE, AND OREGON Interest in pushing its borders south into Texas (a Mexican province) & westward into the Oregon Territory (claimed by Britain) was largely the result of American pioneers migrating into these lands during the 1820s-1830s. TEXAS In 1823, after having won its national independence from Spain, Mexico hoped to attract settlers to farm its sparsely populated northern frontier province of Texas. Moses Austin, a Missouri banker, had obtained a large land grant in Texas but dies before he could carry out his plan to recruit American settlers for the land.
