This work proposes the reorganization of America's ground forces
on the strategic, operational and tactical levels. Central to the
proposal is the simple thesis that the U.S. Army must take control
of its future by exploiting the emerging revolution in military
affairs. The analysis argues that a new Army warfighting
organization will not only be more deployable and effective in
Joint operations; reorganized information age ground forces will be
significantly less expensive to operate, maintain, and modernize
than the Army's current Cold War division-based organizations. And
while ground forces must be equipped with the newest Institute
weapons, new technology will not fulfill its promise of shaping the
battlefield to American advantage if new devices are merely grafted
on to old organizations that are not specifically designed to
exploit them. It is not enough to rely on the infusion of new,
expensive technology into the American defense establishment to
preserve America's strategic dominance in the next century. The
work makes it clear that planes, ships, and missiles cannot do the
job of defending America's global security issues alone. The United
States must opt for reform and reorganization of the nation's
ground forces and avoid repeating Britain's historic mistake of
always fielding an effective army just in time to avoid defeat, but
too late to deter an aggressor.
