Swinney Department of History Duke University Date:_______________________ Approved: ___________________________ Dirk Bönker, Supervisor ___________________________ Nancy MacLean ___________________________ Anna Krylova ___________________________ Adriane Lentz-Smith An abstract of a dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History in the Graduate School of Duke University 2019 i v Copyright by Joseph D. Swinney 2019 Abstract This dissertation explores the revitalization of the U.S. army during the two decades following the Vietnam War. It questions how the army went from a nearly broken institution in the early 1970s to, arguably, one of the nation’s most respected institutions after the 1991 Persian Gulf War. Through an examination of collections of articles published in the extensive military press of the period, collections of personal papers from both senior and lower ranking army officers, and historical files from the Combined Arms Center at Fort Leavenworth, this dissertation shows that the army’s revitalization was fundamentally a transformation in the institution’s culture and conceptions of professionalism. After the Vietnam War, the army followed the nation in its conservative political turn.

In their original song, the Beach Boys sing “she’s real fine my 409,” glamorizing loud, four-barreled, gas-guzzling hot rod cars that whisked people across the wide open American roads. But for the most part, that era has passed, and Notre Dame engineering students are helping to usher in a new way of automotive travel by racing a sleek, almost dead silent, Indy- style battery powered car with a maximum voltage of 385. Notre Dame, along with 11 other universities, purchased rolling chassis and fiberglass shells as specified by the Solar and Electric Racing Association (S.E.R.A.) in Phoenix. A chal­ lenge to the schools was then put out to see who could design the best type of propulsion sys­ tem. “T h e re ’s two objectives in ­ volved,” said Col. John Miles, Notre Dame’s assistant dean of Engineering. “One is to give undergrads hands on research, and the second is to enhance technology of electric vehicles.” Notre Dame Racing, which consisted of 26 undergraduates last year, chose a lead acid bat­ tery produced by Delco/Remy for their car. The undergrads, led by their advisor Professor William Barry, then designed what they believed was the Photo courtesy of Kevin Burke The Delco/Remy, one of the Notre Dame Engineering department's recent creations, zips around the track.
