Your Boss, Players, And Sponsor: The Three Witches Of War Gaming, Stephen Downes-Martin
Your Boss, Players, And Sponsor: The Three Witches Of War Gaming, Stephen Downes-Martin
Naval War College Review
In national-security war gaming there are three classes of senior stakeholders whom I call “the three witches”—critical to the success of a game but with the power to affect negatively its quality. These comprise, first, the war-game director’s superior and chain of command; second, the senior players within each game cell; and third, the sponsor of the game and that officer’s chain of command. Each of these three stakeholders frequently attempts to influence the design of the war game, even during play itself. For two reasons, such attempts amount to inappropriate interference.

Trends In Modern War Gaming: The Art Of Conversation, Hank J. Brightman, Melissa K. Dewey
Naval War College Review
Lieutenant William McCarty Little—a war-gaming visionary—was truly a man ahead of his time.1 Although physically sight impaired and medically retired from active naval service, he opted to use his ideational vision and keen mind to support the Naval War College, in Newport, Rhode Island, during its first few years of operation after its founding in 1884. Initially an unpaid volunteer, he was appointed in 1887 as a member of the faculty, where he developed two-sided war gaming at the College—a construct that is still in use at the state-of-the-art facility that today bears his name.

President’S Forum, Walter E. Carter Jr.
Naval War College Review
The Naval War College is a multifaceted joint military academic institution, in support of the naval profession, composed of resident education for U.S. and international officers and focused on maritime research, regional studies, distance education, war gaming, and education/ programs at the operational level of war. Each of these intricate areas has unique programs and initiatives, but their common underlying theme is their ability to educate our future leaders and to teach them to think strategically and operationally. Educating leaders is conducted not only at the War College but also at our off-site locations around the country, and the research …

Naval War College Review
One of the four key missions assigned the Naval War College has long been the education of future leaders. In 2007, the College of Operational and Strategic Leadership (COSL ) was established as a component of the College to sharpen the focus of its educational activities in direct support of the fleet. In our feature, after these notes, Rear Admiral James Kelly, USN (Ret.), the current dean of COSL , provides an account of what may prove to be the most important initiative undertaken in recent years to review, align, and strengthen the policies and processes by which the Navy …

Fernando Oliveira’S Art Of War At Sea (1555): A Pioneering Treatise On Naval Strategy, Luis Nuno Sardinha Monteiro
Fernando Oliveira’S Art Of War At Sea (1555): A Pioneering Treatise On Naval Strategy, Luis Nuno Sardinha Monteiro
Naval War College Review
Although written more than 450 years ago, Art of War at Sea is a treatise that was ahead of its time, establishing in part the basis of modern naval strategy. Yet it has remained in obscurity, as it was never translated from sixteenth-century Portuguese.

A General Review Of The History Of China’S Sea-Power Theory Development, Zhang Wei, Shazeda Ahmed
Naval War College Review
Chinese sea power, writes an officer of the People’s Liberation Army Navy, must have Chinese characteristics and not follow the path that Western powers took to maritime hegemony.

China’S Aircraft Carrier Program: Drivers, Developments, Implications, Andrew Scobell, Michael Mcmahon, Cortez A. Cooper Iii
Naval War College Review
China’s carrier program will not fundamentally transform the balance of military power in the western Pacific. But it does signal both China’s unmistakable intent to project military power beyond the nation’s “near seas” and its aspirations to become a global naval power.

Connecting The Dots: Capital Ships, The Littoral, Command Of The Sea, And The World Order, Robert C. Rubel
Naval War College Review
The geopolitical competitors of the United States are seeking ways to nullify the American capability to influence and intervene that the aircraft carrier confers. Understanding the linkages helps us refine and enhance the debate about what to do.

Why Taiwan? Geostrategic Rationales For China’S Territorial Integrity, By Alan M. Wachman, Andrew S. Erickson
Why Taiwan? Geostrategic Rationales For China’S Territorial Integrity, By Alan M. Wachman, Andrew S. Erickson
Naval War College Review
Tufts Fletcher School professor Alan Wachman was a giant in the China, East Asian studies, and international rela- tions field who remains sorely missed following his untimely death in 2012. In what is widely considered one of his major scholarly contributions, through this pithy, well-researched book—rightly considered a classic—Wachman engages in exceptional interdisciplinary analysis to offer provocative coverage of historical episodes that have shaped Taiwan’s status fundamentally. Some events raise penetrating questions about what might have resulted had they ended differently; other factors inspire critical questions about East Asia’s future.

Fire On The Water: China, America, And The Future Of The Pacific, By Robert Haddick, Ian T. Sundstrom
Fire On The Water: China, America, And The Future Of The Pacific, By Robert Haddick, Ian T. Sundstrom
Naval War College Review
Robert Haddick proposes a revised U.S. strategy toward China. He argues agreeing with recent U.S. national security strategies—that continued U.S. forward presence is the only option that supports the American objectives of “an open international economic system; respect for universal values around the world; and a rules-based international order that promotes peace, security, and opportunity through stronger cooperation.” He articulates a two-front effort to ensure China rises within the existing international structure: positive reinforcement of good behavior combined with significant defense reforms to allow punishment of bad behavior.
Invasion Of Laos, 1971: Lam Son 719, By Robert D. Sander, Joseph Hammond
Invasion Of Laos, 1971: Lam Son 719, By Robert D. Sander, Joseph Hammond
Naval War College Review
“The only chance we have is to initiate bold moves against the enemy,” na- tional security adviser Henry Kissinger confided in 1971. This was his advice to the administration of President Nixon, which sought to end the Vietnam War by creating “peace with honor.” “Bold moves” would include two new strate- gies. One was resumed bombing of North Vietnam. The second would be new ground raids into Cambodia and Laos to disrupt the Ho Chi Minh Trail—the network that allowed Hanoi to supply communist forces in the south, and that at its peak even in- cluded an oil pipeline from …
More Than Just War: Narratives Of The Just War Tradition And Military Life, By Charles A. Jones, Joseph M. Hatfield
More Than Just War: Narratives Of The Just War Tradition And Military Life, By Charles A. Jones, Joseph M. Hatfield
Naval War College Review
Pedestrian forms of philosophical in- novation often involve the application of old ideas to new cases. It should there- fore come as no surprise that the creative bulk of what is published today on the ethics of war achieves its novelty —when it does at all—by applying the just war tradition to hitherto- unexamined aspects of contemporary warfare, for example, drones and unmanned systems, cyber warfare, intelligence and covert operations, asymmetric warfare, and terrorism.
The Evil Hours: A Biography Of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, By David J. Morris, Christopher Nelson
The Evil Hours: A Biography Of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, By David J. Morris, Christopher Nelson
Naval War College Review
The numbers are staggering. In 2012 the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) estimated that eight thousand veterans take their own lives every year. Think about that—twenty-two people die every day of whom many, in pain and having lost hope, have carried their war with them for far too long. For some it may have been recent fight- ing in Afghanistan or Iraq; for others it may have been decades ago in the jungles of Southeast Asia. Regardless, the trauma these people experienced knows no boundaries between deserts and mountains, between marshes and oceans. Or as the great First World …
