Revolution Or Evolution? Combined Arms Warfare in the Twenty-First Century
Author: U S Army Command and General Staff Coll
Publisher: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
ISBN: 9781522746041
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 84
Book Description
This book investigates the modem changes in organization, concepts and doctrine in view of the recent discussion concerning revolution in military affairs. The concept presented is one that proposes that the changes are evolutionary in nature when compared against certain criteria requisite for true revolutions in military affairs. The characteristics required for a true revolution in military affairs are explained and a historical comparison of the evolution of the United States World War II armored division is used to expound on these characteristics. This book emphasizes the importance of the impact of revolutions in military affairs and their impact on the military as an organization. This work compares the changes now occurring with the established criteria to demonstrate the evolutionary nature of these changes.

Book Description
This paper is a case study in the wartime evolution of tactical doctrine. Besides providing a summary of German Infantry tactics of the First World War, this study offers insight into the crucial role of leadership in facilitating doctrinal change during battle. It reminds us that success in war demands extensive and vigorous training calculated to insure that field commanders understand and apply sound tactical principles as guidelines for action and not as a substitute for good judgment. It points out the need for a timely effort in collecting and evaluating doctrinal lessons from battlefield experience. --Abstract.

Combined Arms Warfare in Ancient Greece
Author: GRAHAM. WRIGHTSON
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 9781032093581
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 248
Book Description
Combined Arms Warfare in Ancient Greece examines the timelines of military developments that led from the hoplite-based armies of the ancient Greeks to the hugely successful and multi-faceted armies of Philip II, Alexander the Great, and his Successors. It concentrates on the introduction and development of individual units and their tactical coordination and use in battle in what is termed "combined arms": the effective integration of different unit types into one cohesive battle plan and army allowing each unit to focus on its strengths without having to worry about its weaknesses. This volume traces the development, and argues for the vital importance, of the use of combined arms in Greek warfare from the Archaic period onwards, especially concerning the Macedonian hegemony, through to its developmental completion in the form of fully "integrated warfare" at the battle of Ipsus in 301 BCE. It argues crucially that warfare should never be viewed in isolation in individual states, regions, conflicts or periods but taken as a collective whole tracing the mutual influence of other cultures and the successful innovations that always result. Wrightson analyses Greek and Macedonian warfare through the lens of modern military theoretical terminology, making this study accessible to those with a general interest in military history as well as those studying this specific period.
