This study examines how leaders of tactical units can use the Army's Lesson-Learned System(ALLS) to their best advantage. The ALLS was established to identify, collect, analyze, and thendisseminate lessons from contingency operations and training exercises throughout the force. This system is central to learning in units and the Army. While the guidance for these proceduresis very clear for the overarching Army program, very little information is provided to leaders oftactical units on how they can best support the program and leverage lesson learning in theirorganizations. Analysis revealed that lesson learning as it is defined in AR 11-33, The Army Lesson LearnedSystem occurs on an ad hoc basis in tactical units. There are several reasons for this shortfall. Nevertheless, the Army's lesson-learned program, as it pertains to tactical units, needs to bereevaluated. It is recommended that specific guidance on how to establish learning programs beprovided to leaders of tactical units in both AR 11-33 and in training doctrine. In the absence ofdoctrine, leaders must take proactive steps to establish learning programs in their units.

British Governance of the North-West Frontier (1919 to 1947): A Blueprint for Contemporary Afghanistan?

British Governance of the North-West Frontier (1919 to 1947): A Blueprint for Contemporary Afghanistan?

From the conclusion of the Third Afghan War (1919) to India's Independence (1947), Great Britain governed the wild, mountainous territory of the North-West Frontier that borders Afghanistan. This control used a variety of mature political and military structures to successfully administer the tribal areas. The challenges faced by the British in the North-West Frontier are comparable to current problems the coalition and North Atlantic Treaty Organization face in Afghanistan. Looking at British solutions to similar problems in the same geographical area, albeit from a different era, has clear utility. This thesis provides a historical overview of Colonial India, reviews the political and military structures employed in the North-West Frontier (1919 to 1947), and discusses the current warfighting and reconstruction challenges faced in Afghanistan. It also identifies the pertinent lessons learned from the British experience that are transferable to settling the conflict and furthering the national reconstruction of Afghanistan. The thesis concludes by combining the lessons learned into a coherent four-step plan for the reconstruction of Afghanistan.

Contrast Between American and Afghan Warriors, A Comparison Between Two Martial Cultures

Contrast Between American and Afghan Warriors, A Comparison Between Two Martial Cultures

The United States has committed to training and equipping the Afghan National Army. This mission is executed primarily by conventional American soldiers, who naturally transfer much of their martial culture to their Afghan partners. This book proposes to identify expected problem areas where Afghan and American martial cultures conflict. This book identified four areas where Afghan and American martial cultures contrast through an intense survey of Afghan military history and current research. The most important contrast is that the Afghans fighting groups are loyal to a local community or group, rather than the idea of an Afghan nation state. Afghans value military skills but may tend to withhold techniques and knowledge in order to preserve personal power. Afghans either view discipline as very flexible or very rigid, depending on their personal background with the mujahidin or DRA Army. Afghans are motivated to fight by personal reasons, which make religion, profit, or revenge much more attractive causes than the stability of the Kabul government to most Afghans. American trainers can help bridge the gap between these martial cultures by demonstrating courage, self sacrifice, and technical skills, valued by both cultures, to build rapport and mutual respect.

Through an executive order, the United States forfeited assassination as an instrument offoreign policy. Many Americans believe that the prohibition limits our flexibility in dealing with national security threats, specifically asymmetric threats from rogue leaders. This book is an examination of Executive Order 12333 and its prohibition on assassination. This book further details both legal and moral arguments, for and against assassination. The legal provisions of Executive Order 12333, the Hague and GenevaConventions, and United Nations Charter will be reviewed. The moral dilemma of assassination will also be discussed. This work will address the question of whether the United States can assassinate an individual who poses a threat to its national security and interests. The author concludes that the United States should reserve the option of assassination of its threats as a tool of foreign policy.

Preparing General Purpose Forces in the United States and British Armies for Counterinsurgent Operations

Preparing General Purpose Forces in the United States and British Armies for Counterinsurgent Operations

The U. S. Army has directed that its entire force must be capable of conducting what it terms Full Spectrum Operations, that is being able to conduct offensive, defensive, stability, and/or civil support operations, simultaneously in the 21st Century. Historical study and oral history interviews of the experiences of the British and American Armies in the Malayan Emergency, the Vietnam War and Operations Iraqi Freedom and Enduring Freedom illustrate that the general purpose forces of these organizations can conduct successful counterinsurgency operations. This same study also highlights that while these forces are adaptable at the tactical and operational level, their ability to adjust to changing conditions in the contemporary operating environment is due primarily to personal study and initiative. In order to develop true full spectrum capabilities, the United States Army must develop an institutional educational program that provides leaders with solid foundations in conduct offensive, defensive, stability, and civil support operations. The doctrinal basis for this system should include input from the recent and current operational theaters as well as in depth historical study in order to both keep it relevant to current events and to provide the breadth and depth that will ensure leaders do not "cherry pick" tactics, techniques or procedures. Educating leaders in all aspects of Full Spectrum Operations will allow them to tailor properly the training of their units for the missions they will face in the contemporary operating environment.
