Military Organizations for Homeland Defense and Smaller-Scale Contingencies: A Comparative Approach
History has often confirmed that it is not superior weapons but superior organizations that are the most effective factor in achieving military success. In light of this consideration, Kevin D. Stringer’s book proposes how the U.S. military can best be restructured and transformed to conduct hybrid or irregular operations below the threshold of war.
Swiss-Made Heroes
Swiss-Made Heroes provides a biographical array of nine military officers, all with Swiss roots, in a single volume that covers a period from the Middle Ages to World War II. This unique set of leaders had an enduring impact on military history, and their deeds proved critical to the development and survival of nations, institutions, and armies.
