Since the early stages of World War II, militaries in general, and
the U.S. Army in particular, have studied the German way of war,
specifically as practiced in the 20th century. While acknowledging
that Germany-and before that nation came into existence, Prussia-
produced some excellent armies, major problems with the German way
of war must not be ignored. Even the casual observers should have
noted that, despite the military prowess of Germany, it lost both
of the major wars of the 20th century. This Letort Paper, authored
by Dr. Samuel J. Newland, explores the reasons why a nation with
such a strong military reputation was unable to win its wars and
achieve its goals. He emphasizes that military power, tactical and
operational brilliance, and victories in the field can easily be
squandered if a nation has failed to set achievable goals and
develop strategies to reach them. This failure, which led to
Germany's defeat in these wars, should not be lost on modern
nations as they proceed into the 21st century.
