Publisher's Synopsis
"Forging the Framework discusses how US Army leaders and soldiers have navigated complex situations involving use of the military for disaster relief, emergency management, and domestic unrest and how those events have shaped law, policy, and regulations. This anthology explores the history of the Defense Support to Civil Authorities (DSCA) framework and how developing policies have helped minimize uncertainty and confusion over time-a robust framework forged by lessons observed and sometimes learned. The authors hope that Forging the Framework will help leaders, soldiers, and civilians understand how historical events shaped DSCA policies, laws, and regulations and that this, in turn, will help with future decision-making"-- Provided by publisher.
