  • Sustainable Pre-Eminence: Reforming the US Military at a Time Of
    RESPONSIBLE DEFENSE SERIES Sustainable Pre-eminence MAY 2012 Reforming the U.S. Military at a Time of Strategic Change By Lieutenant General David W. Barno, USA (Ret.), Nora Bensahel, Matthew Irvine and Travis Sharp About the Report “Sustainable Pre-eminence” is part of an ongoing project called Responsible Defense at the Center for a New American Security (CNAS). The project examines how the United States should maximize its national security in an era of defense spending reductions. The project published its first report, “Hard Choices: Responsible Defense in an Age of Austerity,” in October 2011. Acknowledgments The authors would like to thank the many talented people who contributed to this report. First and foremost, we thank Bill French and Peter Bacon for their countless research contributions. We thank Kristin Lord, John Nagl, Melissa Dalton and Richard Fontaine for commenting on early drafts.

  • Newman's Own® Awards Announce
    PRESS RELEASE Contact: Michelle Baldanza, Fisher House Foundation [email protected] Contact: Brandon Rook, Newman’s Own Foundation, [email protected] Contact: Christine Aquino, Military Times [email protected] Newman’s Own® Awards Announce 2020 Grant Winners *** Funds Continue to Support Military Non-Profits Offering Quality Veteran Care ROCKVILLE, Md (Nov. 11, 2020) – Fisher House Foundation, Military Times, and Newman’s Own have awarded grants to six non-profit organizations supporting military servicemembers and their families. Newman’s Own® Awards provide funding toward innovative programs created to improve the quality of life for veterans. Newman’s Own® Awards began in 1999 and have now awarded more than $2.1 million across 185 non- profit programs. The grant’s name honors the legacy of Paul Newman, founder of Newman’s Own, who sought to help make a difference in the lives of others. Paul, a Navy veteran, served in the Pacific during World War II. Later in life, he came up with his own line of salad dressings, pasta sauces, pizzas, salsas and much more and decided that all the profits from Newman’s Own products would go to charities. “Fisher House Foundation congratulates the 2020 Newman’s Own Awards grant recipients, all of which offer important programs to support our military and veteran communities,” said Chairman and CEO of Fisher House Foundation Ken Fisher. “Thank you to our partners at Newman’s Own and Military Times, along with our distinguished judges, for their dedication to helping non-profits succeed, especially in such trying times.” “Military Times is honored to provide our platform to find and recognize organizations whose mission is to help improve the lives of veterans and their families,” said Andrew Tilghman, Military Times executive editor.

  • Military Aviation: Issues and Options for Combating Terrorism and Counterinsurgency
    Order Code RL32737 CRS Report for Congress Received through the CRS Web Military Aviation: Issues and Options for Combating Terrorism and Counterinsurgency January 27, 2006 Christopher Bolkcom Specialist in National Defense Foreign Affairs, Defense, and Trade Division Kenneth Katzman Specialist in Middle East Affairs Foreign Affairs, Defense, and Trade Division Congressional Research Service ˜ The Library of Congress Military Aviation: Issues and Options for Combating Terrorism Summary By all accounts, the U.S. military dominates state-on-state conflict. In the past, non-state actors (terrorists, guerrillas, drug traffickers) appeared to be less threatening to U.S. national security than the well funded, well organized, and potent armed forces of an enemy nation-state. The terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 illustrate, however, that small groups of non-state actors can exploit relatively inexpensive and commercially available technology to conduct very destructive attacks over great distances. Today’s U.S. armed forces were developed principally with state-on-state conflict in mind. Combating non-state actors, however, presents a number of distinct challenges in terms of operations, cost, and mindset. Non-state actors generally strive to hide within civilian populations. While U.S. policy makers typically seek quick and decisive victories, non-state actors seek protracted war. Non-state actors often employ cheap, commercially available weapons, that often result in expensive responses by the United States. Many of the weapons and methods employed today by U.S. armed forces can be used against non-state actors. Some, however, are more directly applicable than others. U.S. experience in conducting close air support (CAS), employing special operations forces (SOF) and advising friendly governments in using aviation to defend themselves from insurgents and terrorists may form a basis for building capabilities against non-state actors.

Mahnken he leadership of the Defense Department has enthusiastically endorsed the Tproposition that the growth and diffusion of stealth, precision, and informa- tion technology will drastically alter the character and conduct of future wars, yielding a revolution in military affairs. President George W. Bush campaigned on a pledge to transform the U.S. armed forces by “skipping a generation” of technology. A month after assuming office, he promised in a speech at the Norfolk Naval Base to “move beyond marginal improvements to harness new technolo- gies that will support a new strategy.” He called for the development of ground forces that are lighter, more mobile, and more lethal, as well as manned and un- manned air forces capable of striking across the globe with precision.1 Dr.
