The famous Confederate General Stonewall Jackson noted that "To
move swiftly, strike vigorously, and secure all the fruits of the
victory is the secret of successful war." This observation is at
the very heart of the current discussion and experimentation on how
the transformed joint services of the United States should employ
force in the 21st century. The services are exploring concepts such
as Effects Based Operations and Rapid Decisive Operations to move
swiftly and strike vigorously to secure victory in the coming
decades. At the same time the nation and its armed forces are
developing new concepts of homeland security to defend the country
in the war on terrorism. The following chapters represent some of
the thinking by students at the U.S. Army War College, considering
the nature and direction of transformation concepts that deal with
these issues.
