How much defense is enough in the post–Cold War era?”1 Finding a satisfactory answer to these deceptively simple questions not only motivated the Bottom-Up Review but has arguably animated defense strategy for the past quarter century.

  • Trump's Generals
    STRATEGIC STUDIES QUARTERLY - PERSPECTIVE Trump’s Generals: A Natural Experiment in Civil-Military Relations JAMES JOYNER Abstract President Donald Trump’s filling of numerous top policy positions with active and retired officers he called “my generals” generated fears of mili- tarization of foreign policy, loss of civilian control of the military, and politicization of the military—yet also hope that they might restrain his worst impulses. Because the generals were all gone by the halfway mark of his administration, we have a natural experiment that allows us to com- pare a Trump presidency with and without retired generals serving as “adults in the room.” None of the dire predictions turned out to be quite true. While Trump repeatedly flirted with civil- military crises, they were not significantly amplified or deterred by the presence of retired generals in key roles. Further, the pattern continued in the second half of the ad- ministration when “true” civilians filled these billets. Whether longer-term damage was done, however, remains unresolved. ***** he presidency of Donald Trump served as a natural experiment, testing many of the long- debated precepts of the civil-military relations (CMR) literature. His postelection interviewing of Tmore than a half dozen recently retired four- star officers for senior posts in his administration unleashed a torrent of columns pointing to the dangers of further militarization of US foreign policy and damage to the military as a nonpartisan institution. At the same time, many argued that these men were uniquely qualified to rein in Trump’s worst pro- clivities. With Trump’s tenure over, we can begin to evaluate these claims.

    Statement by Mr. Robert G. Salesses Senior Official Performing the Duties of Assistant Secretary of Defense for Homeland Defense and Global Security Office of the Secretary of Defense Major General Jeffrey B. Taliaferro, U.S. Air Force Vice Director of Operations (J3) Joint Staff Major General Steven S. Nordhaus, U.S. Air Force Director of Operations (J3) National Guard Bureau Before the 117th Congress Committee on Armed Services U.S. House of Representatives February 17, 2021 Introduction Chairman Smith, Ranking Member Rogers, distinguished Members of the Committee: Thank you for the opportunity to testify before you today on the Department of Defense’s (DoD’s) response to the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. I am honored to be here in the company of Major General Jeff Taliaferro, the Joint Staff’s Vice Director for Operations, and Major General Steven Nordhaus, the National Guard Bureau’s Director for Operations. As President Biden’s “National Strategy for the COVID-19 Response and Pandemic Preparedness” states: “The federal government cannot solve this crisis alone. Full implementation of the National Strategy for COVID-19 will require sustained, coordinated, and complementary efforts of the American people, as well as groups across the country, including State, local, territorial, and Tribal governments; health care providers; businesses; manufacturers critical to the supply chain, communities of color, and unions.” DoD is a critical part of the Federal response, but DoD’s efforts rely greatly on partnerships. DoD’s provision of key medical and non-medical capabilities, personnel, and supplies to support the States, the District of Columbia, territories, or international partners, was only possible because of strong, mutually supporting partnerships with our interagency partners.
