The Origins and Development of the National Training Center is a thought-provoking study of the Army's efforts to build a state-of-the-art central training facility for providing its soldiers with the tough realistic combat training demanded by the battlefields of today. Anne W. Chapman traces the evolution of the National Training Center at Fort Irwin in the high desert of California from concept in 1976 to initial implementation in 1980 and then through its early years of operation until 1984, when the Army's senior trainers declared the NTC a success. All in all, the NTC story provides a valuable case study of concept development and institutional planning, and is an example of the synergy of modern technology and new combat doctrine that resulted in an innovative and imaginative approach to training.

The U.S. Army has a long history of conducting irregular operations of almost every nature and size. The Vietnam War (and the larger Cold War of which it was a part) sparked a renewed interest in both counterinsurgency warfare as well as a broad range of "operations other than war" missions. Working in concert with European allies, U.S. forces entered Kosovo in June 1999 with the primary objective of bringing peace to a troubled land where Serbian forces under Slobodan Milosevic had driven out more than 800,000 ethnic Albanians-while an estimated 12,000 were murdered in a wave of ethnic cleansing that horrified the world. The task, code-named Operation Joint Guardian, proved exceedingly difficult. Organized as the Kosovo Forces (KFOR), the Allies were finally able to enforce a tentative peace by October 1999. But even now, there is no end in sight for the current peacekeeping mission, and the path leading to a larger political solution regarding Kosovo's future has been equally elusive. The Army's mission in Kosovo was significantly different from the warfighting customarily associated with military service, but it was no less important and no less dangerous. This brief study chronicles the origins of U.S. involvement and the peace enforcement operation that followed through 2005.

MACV: The Joint Command in the Years of Withdrawal, 1968-1973, describes the evolution of the command during the period of U.S. disengagement from Vietnam. By late 1967 the Military Assistance Command, Vietnam (MACV), had grown from a small, temporary advisory and assistance organization into a large, permanent headquarters that directed more than half a million American soldiers, sailors, airmen, and marines in a wide range of combat and pacification operations. By that same time, however, President Lyndon B. Johnson and his principal advisers had concluded that it was necessary to begin reducing the cost in lives and money of a seemingly stalemated war. The Communist Tet offensive of January-February 1968 confirmed the president in his decision and set the United States upon a path of disengagement that President Richard M. Nixon also followed. During the period covered by this volume, MACV gradually withdrew its American troops from South Vietnam and worked to prepare Saigon's forces to defend their country by their own efforts. The MACV headquarters itself drew down toward reversion to an assistance and advisory group. This volume tells the story of MACV's evolution as an organization and of the command's role in making and implementing American national policy in Southeast Asia during the period of U.S. disengagement from the Vietnam War. It treats both national-level decisions and military operations from the perspective of the theater joint commander.

MACV describes the evolution of the command during the period of gradual expansion of the American effort in South Vietnam. From its establishment in 1962 as a small, temporary organization to administer an assistance program, the Military Assistance Command, Vietnam, grew by late 1967 into a large, permanent headquarters that directed more than half a million American soldiers, sailors, airmen, and marines in a wide range of combat and pacification operations. Graham A. Cosmas tells the story of MACV's development as an organization and of the command's role in making and implementing American national policy in Southeast Asia. The volume treats both national-level decisions and military operations from the perspective of the theater joint commander. It recounts how the MACV commander and his staff viewed the war at various periods and how and why they arrived at their decisions. The volume analyzes the interservice politics of organizing and managing a joint command; MACV's relationship with Pacific Command, the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and the secretary of defense; and the evolution of the command's dealings with its South Vietnamese and third-country allies. As an experiment in nation-building, the story of the Military Assistance Command contains many parallels to more recent Army engagements and so serves as a potential source of important lessons.
