What should our military look like? What lessons have we learned from recent actions in Afghanistan and Iraq? Macgregor has captured the attention of key leaders and inspired a genuine public debate on military reform. With the dangerous world situation of the early 21st century-and possible flashpoints ranging from the Middle East to the Far East-interservice cooperation in assembling small  mobile units and a dramatically simplified command structure is essential. MacGregors controversial ideas  favored by the current Bush administration  would reduce timelines for deployment  enhance responsiveness to crises  and permit rapid decision-making and planning.The Army is the nations primary instrument of land warfare  but what capabilities can the Army field today  and what is the Joint Commander likely to need tomorrow? Stuck with a force structure that hasnt changed since Word War II  as well as an outdated command system  todays Army faces potential failure in a modern war. Without a conceptual redefinition of warfare as a joint operation  a new military culture that can execute joint expeditionary warfare will not emerge. New technology both compels and enables evolution of the armed forces organization. MacGregors visionary plan to integrate ground maneuver forces with powerful strike assets is the foundation for a true revolution in military affairs  and has sparked heated debates in policy and military circles.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44984607998005,"sku":"ByrdShop_0275981924","price":39.29,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780275981921.jpg?v=1770838766","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/transformation-under-fire-revolutionizing-how-america-fights","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
