War College: Summer 2008 Full Issue Published by U.S. Naval War College Digital Commons, 2008 1 Naval War College Review, Vol. 61 [2008], No. 3, Art. 18 Cover Vice Admiral Stockdale (1923–2005) left his mark on the Naval War College not only as president of the institution, from October 1977 to August 1979, but as a thinker on and writer about—and as an exemplar of—leadership. His contribu- tions in the latter respect are remembered today in the school’s College of Opera- tional and Strategic Leadership, particu- larly in the Stockdale Group, a team of students carefully selected each year for directed study. This issue offers a prime example of that group’s recent work, in “Developing the Navy’s Operational Leaders: A Critical Look,” by Com- mander Christopher D. Hayes, U.S. Navy, who graduated (with distinction, as a lieutenant commander) in 2007. Vice Admiral Stockdale’s observation re- produced on the cover is drawn from his essay “Moral Leadership” in the U.S. Na- val Institute Proceedings 106, no. 931 (September 1980), a contribution to the Leadership Forum department of that journal—of course, set conventionally, as prose. The work was reprinted as “Machiavelli, Management, and Moral Leadership” in Military Ethics: Reflec- tions on Principles, edited by Malham Wakin et al. (Washington, D.C.: Na- tional Defense Univ. Press, 1987). Cover design by the Naval War College Visual Communications Branch. https://digital-commons.usnwc.edu/nwc-review/vol61/iss3/18 2 War College: Summer 2008 Full Issue NAVAL WAR COLLEGE REVIEW Summer 2008 Volume 61, Number 3 NAVAL WAR COLLEGE PRESS 686 Cushing Road Newport, RI 02841-1207 Published by U.S. Naval War College Digital Commons, 2008 3 Naval War College Review, Vol. 61 [2008], No. 3, Art. 18 NAVAL WAR COLLEGE PRESS ADVISORY BOARD PRESIDENT, NAVAL WAR COLLEGE Adam Bellow Rear Adm.

Murray If, as was long presumed, Taiwan could fend off a Chinese bombardment, invasion, or blockade, it probably can no longer. But in a wholly new defense posture Taiwan might prevent such an attack from achieving the goals for which it was mounted—and perhaps deter it from being made at all. China and the United States in the Indian Ocean An Emerging Strategic Triangle? . 41 James R. Holmes and Toshi Yoshihara Conditions today are auspicious for shaping a mutually beneficial maritime relationship among India, China, and the United States. Maritime security cooperation, however, is by no means foreordained, and the opportunity to achieve it may not endure for long. Strategy and Policy Reflections on Future War . 61 Mackubin Thomas Owens Despite recent experience, the more extreme claims of the technological optimists who largely dominated the debate in the 1990s continue to exert substantial influence. But is this the correct vision of future war? In fact, the character (not the nature) of war is changing in fundamental and dangerous ways. Leadership and Decision Developing the Navy’s Operational Leaders A Critical Look . 77 Commander Christopher D. Hayes, U.S. Navy There is a leadership crisis in the Navy, and it is a consequence of a misaligned, fragmented, and marginalized system of officer professional development. Published by U.S. Naval War College Digital Commons, 2008 7 2 NAVAL WAR COLLEGE REVIEW Naval War College Review, Vol. 61 [2008], No. 3, Art. 18 Admiral Richard G. Colbert Pioneer in Building Global Maritime Partnerships . 109 John B. Hattendorf Building global maritime alliances, a central element of the U.S. Navy’s new strategy, has been a hallmark of the Naval War College for more than half a century. In this, Admiral Richard Colbert was a key leader, both at the College and in the Navy. Research & Debate The Effect of Tactical Ballistic Missiles on the Maritime Strategy of China . 133 Wang Wei Translated by OS3 Danling Cacioppo, U.S. Navy Book Reviews Taiwan’s Statesman: Lee Teng-hui and Democracy in Asia, by Richard C. Kagan Why Taiwan? Geostrategic Rationales for China’s Territorial Integrity, by Alan M. Wachman reviewed by Bernard D.

  • Seeschlachten Im Atlantik (Zusammenfassung)
    Seeschlachten im Atlantik (Zusammenfassung) U-Boot-Krieg (aus Wikipedia) 07_48/U 995 vom Typ VII C/41, der meistgebauten U-Boot-Klasse im Zweiten Weltkrieg Als U-Boot-Krieg (auch "Unterseebootkrieg") werden Kampfhandlungen zur See bezeichnet, bei denen U-Boote eingesetzt werden, um feindliche Kriegs- und Frachtschiffe zu versenken. Die Bezeichnung "uneingeschränkter U-Boot-Krieg" wird verwendet, wenn Schiffe ohne vorherige Warnung angegriffen werden. Der Einsatz von U-Booten wandelte sich im Laufe der Zeit vom taktischen Blockadebrecher zum strategischen Blockademittel im Rahmen eines Handelskrieges. Nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg änderte sich die grundsätzliche Einsatzdoktrin durch die Entwicklung von Raketen tragenden Atom- U-Booten, die als Träger von Kernwaffen eine permanente Bedrohung über den maritimen Bereich hinaus darstellen. Im Gegensatz zum Ersten und Zweiten Weltkrieg fand hier keine völkerrechtliche Weiterentwicklung zum Einsatz von U-Booten statt. Der Begriff wird besonders auf den Ersten und Zweiten Weltkrieg bezogen. Hierbei sind auch völkerrechtliche Rahmenbedingungen von Bedeutung. Anfänge Während des Amerikanischen Bürgerkrieges wurden 1864 mehrere handgetriebene U-Boote gebaut. Am 17. Februar 1864 versenkte die C.S.S. H. L. Hunley durch eine Sprengladung das Kriegsschiff USS Housatonic der Nordstaaten. Es gab 5 Tote auf dem versenkten Schiff. Die Hunley gilt somit als erstes U-Boot der Welt, das ein anderes Schiff zerstört hat. Das U-Boot wurde allerdings bei dem Angriff auf die Housatonic durch die Detonation schwer beschädigt und sank, wobei auch seine achtköpfige Besatzung getötet wurde. Auftrag der Hunley war die Brechung der Blockade des Südstaatenhafens Charleston durch die Nordstaaten. Erster Weltkrieg Die technische Entwicklung der U-Boote bis zum Beginn des Ersten Weltkrieges beschreibt ein Boot, das durch Dampf-, Benzin-, Diesel- oder Petroleummaschinen über Wasser und durch batteriegetriebene Elektromotoren unter Wasser angetrieben wurde.

ST AM ATES OF Issued by the Department of Transportation on the 20th day of April, 2015 Applications of EASTERN AIR LINES GROUP, INC. Docket DOT-OST 2014-0012 Docket DOT-OST-2014-0013 for certificates of public convenience and necessity, under 49 U.S.C. § 41102 to engage in interstate and foreign charter air transportation of persons, property, and mail ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE PROPOSING ISSUANCE OF CERTIFICATE AUTHORITY Summary By this order, we tentatively find that Eastern Air Lines Group, Inc., (“Eastern”) is a citizen of the United States and is fit, willing, and able to conduct interstate and foreign charter air transportation of persons, property and mail as a U.S. certificated air carrier; and should be issued certificates of public convenience and necessity authorizing such operations, subject to conditions. Background Section 41102 of Title 49 of the United States Code (“the Transportation Code”) directs us to determine whether companies proposing to engage in interstate and foreign charter air transportation are “fit, willing, and able” to perform such service, and to comply with the Transportation Code and the regulations and requirements of the Department. In making fitness findings, the Department uses a three-part test that reconciles the Airline Deregulation Act’s liberal entry policy with Congress’ concern for operational safety and consumer protection.

    September 2012 THE END OF STRATEGIC HAPPY TALK? Thoughts on Robert Kaplan’s “Revenge of Geography” By Mackubin T. Owens Mackubin (Mac) Owens, Professor of National Security Affairs at the Naval War College in Newport, Rhode Island, is the editor of Orbis, FPRI’s Journal of World Affairs, and a Senior Fellow at FPRI. He retired from the Marine Corps Reserve as a Colonel in 1994. Dr. Owens earned his Ph.D. from the University of Dallas, his M.A. in economics from Oklahoma University and his B.A. from the University of California, Santa Barbara. His writings regularly appear in The Wall Street Journal, the Christian Science Monitor, the Washington Times, and National Review Online. This E-Note is excerpted from his editorial column in the Fall 2012 issue of Orbis. His other FPRI essays can be found here: http://www.fpri.org/byauthor.html#owens During the decades after the fall of the Soviet Union and the American victory against Iraq in 1991, far too many U.S. policymakers came to accept a vision of the world that can only be described as “strategic happy talk.” First, there was the “end of history” narrative, which argued that liberal democracy had triumphed as the universal ideology. While conflict might continue on the peripheries of the liberal world order, the trend was toward a more peaceful and prosperous world. The economic component of the end of history narrative was “globalization,” the triumph of liberal capitalism. The end of history narrative was complemented by that of the “technological optimists” who contended that the United States could maintain its dominant position in the international order by exploiting the “revolution in military affairs” (RMA).

  • U.S.-China Military Contacts: Issues for Congress
    U.S.-China Military Contacts: Issues for Congress Shirley A. Kan Specialist in Asian Security Affairs October 27, 2014 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov RL32496 U.S.-China Military Contacts: Issues for Congress Summary This CRS Report, updated through the 113th Congress, discusses policy issues regarding military- to-military (mil-to-mil) contacts with the People’s Republic of China (PRC) and records major contacts and crises since 1993. The United States suspended military contacts with China and imposed sanctions on arms sales in response to the Tiananmen Crackdown in 1989. In 1993, President Clinton reengaged with the top PRC leadership, including China’s military, the People’s Liberation Army (PLA). Renewed military exchanges with the PLA have not regained the closeness reached in the 1980s, when U.S.-PRC strategic alignment against the Soviet Union included U.S. arms sales to China. Improvements and deteriorations in overall bilateral engagement have affected military contacts, which were close in 1997-1998 and 2000, but marred by the 1995-1996 Taiwan Strait crisis, mistaken NATO bombing of a PRC embassy in 1999, the EP-3 aircraft collision crisis in 2001, and the PLA’s aggressive maritime and air confrontations. Issues for Congress include whether the Administration complies with legislation overseeing dealings with the PLA and pursues contacts with the PLA that advance a prioritized set of U.S. security interests, especially the operational safety of U.S. military personnel. Oversight legislation includes the Foreign Relations Authorization Act for FY1990-FY1991 (P.L. 101-246) and National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for FY2000 (P.L.
