  • Personnel Reform and Military Effectiveness
    Personnel Reform and Military Effectiveness By Don Vandergriff Interestingly, the literally hundreds of American observers who were regularly sent to the old continent during the course of the 19th century to study the constantly warring European armies completely missed out on the decade long discussion about the revolutionary command philosophy of Auftragstaktik. Instead they focused on saddle straps, belt buckles and drill manuals. This is one reason why the most democratic command concept never found a home in the greatest democracy. The U.S. officers simply missed the origins because of their own narrow- minded military education.1 Dr. Jörg Muth 21 September 2011 Warfare is first and foremost a human endeavor. Wars are fought by people using their minds. Weapons are only tools used to implement people’s ideas. People and the ideas they wield make the difference between a sharp, decisive victory like Desert Storm and a slow, deadly slog like World War I. Fostering the right ideas requires a culture of Mission Command. Harmful personnel practices preclude such a culture in today’s military, however. The United States now has an opportunity to implement key changes to the personnel system that will retain and promote the right kind of people with the right kind of ideas. Not doing so risks America’s ability to be successful on the battlefields of the future. The U.S. Military must possess the moral courage to identify the numerous bureaucratic obstacles to reform if a culture of Mission Command is ever to succeed. Once identified, these obstacles must be carefully evaluated, either to be reformed or to be eliminated completely.

  • Department of Defense
    DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE The Pentagon 20301–1155, phone (703) 545–6700 fax 695–3362/693–2161, http://www.defenselink.mil ASHTON B. CARTER, Secretary of Defense; born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, September 24, 1954; education: earned his bachelor’s degrees in physics and in medieval history, summa cum laude, at Yale University, where he was also awarded Phi Beta Kappa; received his doctorate in theoretical physics from Oxford University, where he was a Rhodes Scholar. He was a physics instructor at Oxford, a postdoctoral fellow at Rockefeller University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and an experimental research associate at Brookhaven and Fermilab National Laboratories. From 1993–1996, Secretary Carter served as Assistant Secretary of Defense for International Security Policy, responsible for—among other issues—strategic affairs, nuclear weapons policy, and the Nunn-Lugar program that removed nuclear weapons from Ukraine, Kazakhstan, and Belarus. Secretary Carter also served on the Defense Policy Board, the Defense Science Board, and the Secretary of State’s Inter- national Security Advisory Board. From 2009 to 2011, he was Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology and Logistics with responsibility for DoD’s procurement reform and innovation agenda and successful completion of key procurements like the KC–46 tanker. In this capacity, Secretary Carter also led the development and production of thousands of mine-resistant ambush protected (MRAP) vehicles and other rapid acquisitions that saved countless service members’ lives. Determined to get the most for both the warfighters and the taxpayer, Secretary Carter instituted ‘‘Better Buying Power’’ for the first time guiding the department acquisition workforce to smarter and leaner purchasing.
