Publisher's Synopsis
Grappling with the constraints and opportunities the US Army faces in designing policy and strategic options for the post-INF era, the contributors to this book outline the current strategic posture of the army, the challenges of the future and the steps needed to meet those challenges. The book is the outgrowth of a workshop held to address issues raised by the US Army chief of staff. In its final form, it presents a cohesive picture of those issues, discussing the changing European security environment, public attitudes in the US legislative and budgetary concerns, the status of the US reserve forces and the education of military officers, conflicts outside of Europe, and the implications of maritime and air strategy for the army's strategic posture.
