Interesting article by an Air Force officer about transforming the current officer/warrant/enlisted rank centric structure to one of position centric and levels.
My biggest question - when...
Wondering if there is someone here who could possibly get me a copy of an Army Lessons Learned study 04-1: Transforming Command for 21st Century. Member Tom Odom mentioned this study in an article...
Does anyone here know more about this task force and or concept? According to the article General Milley talked about this organization at the recent Future of Warfare conference. So, for those may...
Is anyone here familiar with CMC David Shoup's idea of organizing the Marine Corps into light strike forces and if so where may I go to learn more about this? Thanks.
I'm interested in any military history or military topics groups in the Portland, Oregon metro area? If such group(s) do not exist I'm interested in starting one. Please PM me with information...

Had the honor of meeting the man in Kandahar in January 2002. If there are any other members who were present at that time I was the short DEA agent and not the big dumb goofy looking one. Just...
Yep, goes both ways.
I agree with Bob's World that we do in fact have a great deal of gun violence compared to others, but it is a necessary problem. I came on with the Feds in 1992, right about the time there was a...
I figured deflectors would be needed, but thought I would throw it out there. Conventional PGS seems to be one of the topics discussed on the web. The use of conventional ballistic missiles could...
Hopefully this thread/question does not come off as nuts but is it possible to have ground based lasers in the U.S. to serve as precision global strike weapons? I'm sure something like this would...

I would think the FBI will cut in areas of overlap like drug investigations. This last year DEA cut travel, academy classes and transfers except for those coming back from overseas. We are...
Thanks - read his article.
Point taken - obviously I missed the obvious.
First off does anyone here know why Defence Systems of the Rusi Journal has not published information since December 2012? I did attempt to contact the appropriate person for that section of the...
The Combined Arms Center Digital Library just posted papers from the 2013 School of Advanced Military Studies class http://cgsc.contentdm.oclc.org/cdm/
I read the paper on infantry squad over...
Is the point proper technique or civil forfeiture is bad? I'm not defending the egregious seizures written about in the article. I can't imagine a cop telling a couple you can keep your kids if you...
