DoD IG is dedicated to working on behalf of the warfighters and taxpayers to identify fraud, waste, and abuse; and to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of DoD programs and operations. In doing so, we conduct audits, investigations and inspections that provide guidance and recommendations for improvement to both the Department and Congress. Our vision is to be a model oversight organization in the federal government by leading change, speaking truth and promoting excellence. During this reporting period, we conducted 82 audits, evaluations, intelligence reviews and assessments. Auditing identified $547 million of potential funds that could be put to better use and the Defense Hotline managed 9,340 contacts. In addition, the Defense Criminal Investigative Service, working closely with other law enforcement agencies, returned $440 million in fines, restitution and recoveries to the U.S. government along with 63 arrests, 166 criminal convictions, 74 suspensions and 130 debarments. We are also pleased to recognize the 30th anniversary of DCIS. Since its creation in April 1981 by then Secretary of Defense Caspar Weinberger, DCIS has grown from a small cadre of 15 special agents to more than 350 special agents who run the criminal investigative arm of DoD IG.

    Conscription in the Afghan Army Compulsory Service versus an All Volunteer Force Jerry Meyerle, Nilanthi Samaranayake, Mike Markowitz, Lonn Waters, Hilary Zarin, Brian Ellison, Chris Jehn, Bill Rosenau CRM D0024840.A2/Final April 2011 Strategic Studies is a division of CNA. This directorate conducts analyses of security policy, regional analyses, studies of political-military issues, and strategy and force assessments. CNA Strategic Studies is part of the global community of strategic studies institutes and in fact collaborates with many of them. On the ground experience is a hallmark of our regional work. Our specialists combine in-country experience, language skills, and the use of local primary-source data to produce empirically based work. All of our analysts have advanced degrees, and virtually all have lived and worked abroad. Similarly, our strategists and military/naval operations experts have either active duty experience or have served as field analysts with operating Navy and Marine Corps commands. They are skilled at anticipating the “problem after next” as well as determining measures of effectiveness to assess ongoing initiatives. A particular strength is bringing empirical methods to the evaluation of peace- time engagement and shaping activities. The Strategic Studies Division’s charter is global. In particular, our analysts have proven expertise in the following areas: • The full range of Asian security issues • The full range of Middle East related security issues, especially Iran and the Arabian Gulf • Maritime strategy • Insurgency and stabilization • Future national security environment and forces • European security issues, especially the Mediterranean littoral • West Africa, especially the Gulf of Guinea • Latin America • The world’s most important navies • Deterrence, arms control, missile defense and WMD proliferation The Strategic Studies Division is led by Rear Admiral Michael McDevitt, USN (Ret.), who is available at 703-824-2614 or [email protected].
