As the United States enters a new century, its army confronts the
difficult problems associated with transformation in an uncertain
world. Moreover, the strategic environment makes it entirely
unclear where, or when, or for what strategic purposes U.S. ground
forces will find themselves committed to battle in coming decades.1
Yet, both the strategic environment as well as the harsh lessons of
the past have a direct bearing on why the Army has begun the
processes of transformation.2 The study of the past cannot lead to
prediction as to the nature and conduct of war in the 21st century,
but it does underline that sometime in the future the Army will
find itself committed to a major conflict. Moreover, the nature of
the current strategic environment suggests the parameters within
which the future Army will have to operate. Finally, history is
crucial to understanding what factors and approaches might best
prepare the Army to meet future threats.
