Five members of the Denton Daughters of the American Revolution participated in the State Civil Defense Advisory Council conference in Fort Worth, Texas on June 24th & 25th of 1959. The conference took place at the Texas Hotel. The recording begins after introductions were made so it is difficult to know the name of the speaker, although an article in the 28 June 1959 issue of the Denton Record-Chronicle lists some of the speakers and their topics. Subjects covered in this speech included:...

The purpose of this study was to review various aspects of the machine tool industry such as leadtimes, foreign competition and technological standing. The industry consists, for the most part, of small firms. Annual sales for the entire industry total less than 2.5 billion dollars. The most noteworthy economic characteristics of the industry is the severe cyclic nature of new order bookings. During periods of high orders, shortages of highly skilled workers occur. Cash flow problems during...

The research project will address how current personnel policies are transforming the Selected Reserves into a force that cannot deploy as a combat unit due to the level of non-deployable soldiers within its ranks. The paper will analyze the inadequacies of the current Soldier Readiness Processing and the subsequent disposition of Selected Reserve soldiers upon it being determined that the soldier has a profile greater than a P2 at both the Mobilization Processing Stations and upon redeployment...

Department of Defense (DOD) estimates show that shortages of physicians, nurses, and enlisted medical personnel would be most severe, would reduce capability to deliver wartime care, and would begin to occur soon after mobilization. Shortages of surgical personnel would be especially critical because theater of operations requirements could not be met. Some other enlisted specialty shortages would also be critical because no pretrained pool exists in the civilian sector. (Author)

This Note deals with a number of elements of a new U.S. international security strategy, especially those where confrontation with the Soviet Union might be involved. It speculates on the strategy that is emerging, basing its outline of that strategy largely on views that have been expressed by leading figures in the new administration. The new officials are consistent in pointing up the urgency of redressing the imbalances brought about by the buildup of Soviet military power. They note that...

My field artillery unit was mobilized to perform a non-standard military police mission during Operation Iraqi Freedom II. The unit was part of the largest National Guard mobilization from our state since the Vietnam era. The challenges of deploying a field artillery unit as an ad hoc MP company were many. The challenges were overcome through the strength of our NCO Corps. As I write this paper, I am preparing for a deployment, a non-standard mission with my current unit. As I compare the two...

The United States, as a result of its liberal trade policy, is becoming increasingly dependent upon foreign sources for scarce materials and manufactured components. This dependence is leading to a growing concern over the nation's ability to sustain its military capability in the event of a major protracted war. Despite the severity and extent of the foreign dependencies, as reflected in various studies by Congress and the Executive Branch, there appears to be a reluctance to invest the...

Five times in this century the United States has mobilized to fight wars for which they were initially not prepared. After each of these wars, the military was 'down-sized' to meet austere budgets. Given the inability of the country and her leaders to adequately learn the lessons of history, what lessons can we apply to the current restructuring within the U.S. Army? How can we economically maintain structures which have the capability to rapidly expand should the national interests be...

With the active Army force being reduced due to budget constraints and the collapse of the Warsaw Pact, it is...

This thesis investigates why Iraq's Sunnis resorted to violent collective action, rather than non-violent political action, following Saddam's overthrow. Using social movement theory, I argue that decreasing political opportunity, existing mobilizing structures with violent repertoires, and effective framing of the opposition as kufr (non-Muslim) explain the emergence of Iraq's Sunni insurgency. I posit that Sunnis felt a profound grievance in the decreased political opportunity following the...

The conduct of extended warfare by the United States anywhere on the globe is dependent on the ability of the American industrial base to support it. Such support is in turn dependent on the support of American transportation. In recent years the potential for an extended conventional war has increased. This has increased the need to make adequate plans for domestic transportation support of such a contingency. The objective of this research was to examine government management of domestic...

The Marine Corps Reserve can support active duty units, and will become increasingly critical to sustainability as the force structure declines. Reserve support is not currently a first choice for augmentation by operational commanders. However, as less active units are available, commanders will be forced to tap reserve personnel, especially in the service support communities. The Marine Corps Reserve possesses dynamic capability that should not be overlooked as a last resort measure. The...

Reconstitution strategy is examined from the standpoint of its underlying assumptions and the impact of those assumptions on operational planning.

A survey of reconstitution assumptions is then conducted to identify those which operational planners can concentrate on to reduce the risk of unpreparedness. A key assumption is that the Department of...

Graduated Mobilization Response (GMR) is a system designed to provide mobilization response to an early, ambiguous, and/or specific warning. As a concept GMR is designed to enhance deterrence, ease the impact of reaction to a particular event or situation, and reduce the start-up time required for mobilization should the emergency intensify. To date, the emphasis and progress in implementing GMR has been on administrative and resource responses, rather than military or diplomatic actions....

The basic question is whether or not the strategic principle of forward defense, as currently implemented by NATO forces, provides a sound operational strategy for the conventional defense of Europe.

If not, then a new operational strategy is needed to prevent a quick resort to nuclear warfare and the...
