The study begins with a general overview of the years following the
Korean War through the Vietnam War. The overview examines the
changing political landscapes, the events that helped to change
doctrine, and the tactical changes that affected the development,
employment, and integration of aeroscouts. The next chapter
examines the political environment. The differing policies and the
competing political agendas created an environment where the Army
was forced to identify important changes necessary to remain
relevant. The next chapter focused on the doctrinal changes,
important milestones, and pioneers in Army Aviation. The chapter
concludes with the idea that despite many individual and collective
influences of key leaders, politicians, committees, and competing
services, at the end of the day it was a collective effort that
served as the catalyst for change. The final chapter examines the
tactical changes by focusing first on the technological
advancements, second on the weapons advancements, and finally on
the changes in tactical employment. The study concludes that
competition was the main force for change. Leaders searched for
solutions but they really did not fully comprehend what the
doctrinal development question was, which served as a poor example
of how to integrate new technology and doctrine.
