SECTION I U.S. NATIONAL SECURITY STRUCTURE CONSTITUTIONAL BASIS FOR THE ARMED FORCES From the Preamble to the Constitution: "We the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense .. " NOTE: "WE THE PEOPLE ... PROVIDE FOR THE COMMON DEFENSE" Historically, our Army is even older than our nation, having been created on June 14, 1775 by the Second Continental Congress. Thus, the Army pre-dates the Declaration of Indepen­ dence by more than a year and was in existence nearly 14 years when our government declared the United States Constitution in effect. The Constitution is very specific as to who raises and commands the Army. THE CONSTITUTION THE CONGRESS THE PRESIDENT Article I, Section 8: Article II, Section 2: "The Congress shall have power to . "The President shall be the Command­ provide for the common defense; to declare er-i n-Chief of the Army and Navy of the war ... to raise and support armies ... to United States; and of the militia of the make rules for the government and regula­ several states, when called into the actual tion of the land and naval forces ..." service of the United States." ·------··-----------·---- --- THE DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE advice NATIONAL CONGRESS THE EXECUTIVE SECURITY COUNCIL Exercises control by the The President, as Commander­ enactment of legislation, in-Chief, assures that final including the appropriation authority over the military rests of resources. with a civilian official. DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE SECRETARY OF DEFENSE Title II of the National Security Act of 1947, as amended, provided for the establishment of a Department of Defense to be headed by a Secretary. In the words of the statute: "there shall be within the Department of Defense the Department of the Army, the Department of the Navy, and the Department of the Air Force, and each depart­ ment shall on and after August 10, 1949, be military departments in lieu of their prior status as Executive Departments." (5 U.S.C. 171 (b).) The major subdivisions within the Department of Defense are: the Office of the Secretary of Defense; the Joint Chiefs of Staff; the three military departments and the military services within those departments; the unified and specified commands; and such other agencies as the Secretary establishes to meet specific requirements. 2 THE SECRETARY OF DEFENSE As the principal assistant to the President in all matters relating to the Department of Defense, the Secretary, subject to the direction of the President and the provisions of the statute, "h as ... direction, authority, and control" over the Department of Defense. SECRETARY OF DEFENSE DEPUTY SECRETARY OF DEFENSE OFFICE OF THE ORGANIZATION OF THE MILITARY SECRETARY OF DEFENSE JOINT CHIEFS OF STAFF DEPARTMENTS DEPUTY AND CHAIRMAN, JOINT CHIEFS DEPARTMENT OF THE ARMY DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY DEPARTMENT OF THE AIR FORCE UNDER OF STAFF SECRETARIES SECRETARY OF THE ARMY SECRETARY OF THE NAVY SECRETARY OF THE AIR FORCE VICE CHAIRMAN CHIEF OF STAFF, ARMY UNDER UNDER UNDER ASSISTANT CfliEF CHIEF OF NAVAL OPERATIONS SECRETARY CfliEF SECRETARY CfliEF COMMANDANT SECRETARY SECRETARIES OF CHIEF OF STAFF, AIR FORCE AND OF AND OF OF AND STAFF COMMANDANT, MARINE CORPS ASSISTANT STAFF ASSISTANT NAVAL MARINE ASSISTANT AIR SECRETARIES ARMY SECRETARIES OPERATIONS CORPS SECRETARIES FORCE DEFENSE OF THE OF THE OF THE AGENCIES ARMY NAVY AIR FORCE THE OFFIC E OF THE SECRETARY OF DEFENSE The Office of the Secretary of Defense, primarily a civilian staff but containing military personnel as well, is designed to advise and assist the Secretary in the overall operation of the Department. The Secretary is assisted by a Deputy Secretary and an Under Secretary of Defense for Policy and one for Acquisition. In addition there are 12 Assistant Secretaries of Defense and 13 Defense Agency Directors. 3 - -------------------·-------------------------------�------·----------- r-- -- --- - ---- I ' .) THE JOINT CHIEFS OF STAFF By statute the principal military advisors to the President, the National Security Council, and the Secretary of Defense are the Joint Chiefs of Staff, consisting of the Chairman-who outranks all other officers of the Armed Forces while holding office-the Chief of Staff of the Army; the Chief of Naval Operations; the Chief of Staff of the Air Force; and the Commandant of the Marine Corps. The Joint Chiefs of Staff, subject to the authority and direction of the President and the Secretary of Defense, are assigned (among others) the functions of: (1) preparing strategic plans and providing for the strategic direction of the Armed forces; (2) establishing unified commands in strategic areas.

UNIFIED AND SPECIFIED COMMANDS The Armed Forces of the United States are organized for the performance of military mis­ sions into combatant commands made up of forces from the various military departments under the operational command of unified or specified commanders. A unified command is composed of significant assigned components of two or more Services. A specified command is usually composed of forces from one Service, but may include units and have representa­ tion from other Services. ORGANIZATION AND MISSIONS Unified and specified commands are assigned broad continuing missions. These com­ mands are established, designated, and the force structure determined by the President, through the Secretary of Defense with the advice and assistance of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. CHAIN OF COMMAND The commanders of unified and specified commands are responsible to the President and the Secretary of Defense. Hence, the chain of command runs from the President to the Secretary of Defense, to these commanders. The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff may issue orders to these commanders by authority and direction of the Secretary of Defense.

    LiberationLiberation Liberation 65th ANNIVERSARY 2010 By Rona Mendelsohn During the final weeks of World War II, the task of freeing the western por- tion of Czechoslovakia fell to the soldiers of the American Third Army, led by General George S. Patton, Jr. The following article is a day-by-day account of that momentous two-week period, which is clearly etched in the memories of those who lived through it. Many Czech citizens have written to the Ameri- can Embassy, sending photographs and sharing their recollections of those days in great detail. The Embassy thanks them for their generous assistance and valuable information. This account, however, has been compiled from the American side. It was written by Rona Mendelsohn, a professional writer in Washington, D. C, after consulting more than 20 original sources, including letters, books, military records, newspaper articles, and personal interviews.

For over 32 years, the Army Reserve has been an integral part of my life and perhaps the one constant of my adult years.

In writing this foreword I recognise that so much has changed.

  • The United States Atomic Army, 1956-1960 Dissertation
    INTIMIDATING THE WORLD: THE UNITED STATES ATOMIC ARMY, 1956-1960 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Paul C. Jussel, B.A., M.M.A.S., M.S.S. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2004 Dissertation Committee Approved by Professor Allan R. Millett, Advisor Professor John R. Guilmartin __________________ Professor William R. Childs Advisor Department of History ABSTRACT The atomic bomb created a new military dynamic for the world in 1945. The bomb, if used properly, could replace the artillery fires and air-delivered bombs used to defeat the concentrated force of an enemy. The weapon provided the U.S. with an unparalleled advantage over the rest of the world, until the Soviet Union developed its own bomb by 1949 and symmetry in warfare returned. Soon, theories of warfare changed to reflect the belief that the best way to avoid the effects of the bomb was through dispersion of forces. Eventually, the American Army reorganized its divisions from the traditional three-unit organization to a new five-unit organization, dubbed pentomic by its Chief of Staff, General Maxwell D. Taylor. While atomic weapons certainly had an effect on Taylor’s reasoning to adopt the pentomic organization, the idea was not new in 1956; the Army hierarchy had been wrestling with restructuring since the end of World War II. Though the Korean War derailed the Army’s plans for the early fifties, it returned to the forefront under the Eisenhower Administration. The driving force behind reorganization in 1952 was not ii only the reoriented and reduced defense budget, but also the Army’s inroads to the atomic club, formerly the domain of only the Air Force and the Navy.

All nations seek it constantly because it is the key to greatness — sometimes to survival. That intangible is the electric and elusive quality known as leadership. GEN Mark Clark 8420010_LT1_p002-015 8/14/08 1:31 PM Page 3 Introduction to Army Leadership ■ 3 Introduction As a junior officer in the US Army, you must develop and exhibit character—a combination of values and attributes that enables you to see what to do, decide to do it, and influence others to follow. You must be competent in the knowledge and skills required to do your job effectively. And you must take the proper action to accomplish your mission based on what your character tells you is ethically right and appropriate. This philosophy of Be, Know, Do forms the foundation of all that will follow in your career as an officer and leader. The Be, Know, Do philosophy applies to all Soldiers, no matter what Army branch, rank, background, or gender. SGT Leigh Ann Hester, a National Guard military police officer, proved this in Iraq and became the first female Soldier to win the Silver Star since World War II. Silver Star Leadership SGT Leigh Ann Hester of the 617th Military Police Company, a National Guard unit out of Richmond, Ky., received the Silver Star, along with two other members of her unit, for their actions during an enemy ambush on their convoy.

    2nd INFANTRY REGIMENT 1110 pages (approximate) Boxes 1243-1244 The 2nd Infantry Regiment was a component part of the 5th Infantry Division. This Division was activated in 1939 but did not enter combat until it landed on Utah Beach, Normandy, three days after D-Day. For the remainder of the war in Europe the Division participated in numerous operations and engagements of the Normandy, Northern France, Rhineland, Ardennes-Alsace and Central Europe campaigns. The records of the 2nd Infantry Regiment consist mostly of after action reports and journals which provide detailed accounts of the operations of the Regiment from July 1944 to May 1945. The records also contain correspondence on the early history of the Regiment prior to World War II and to its training activities in the United States prior to entering combat. Of particular importance is a file on the work of the Regiment while serving on occupation duty in Iceland in 1942.
