Peacetime Naval Rearmament, 1933–39: Lessons For Today, Jamie Mcgrath Mar 2019

Peacetime Naval Rearmament, 1933–39: Lessons For Today, Jamie Mcgrath

Naval War College Review

Following World War I, the USN fleet was outdated and undersized, but a time of naval resurgence began in 1933, adding modern ships to the U.S. fleet and revitalizing the American shipbuilding industry. In many ways, this period mirrors the post–Cold War state of the fleet, but the principal actors vary greatly in their level of coordination and commitment to building the Navy the nation needs.

Wargame Business: Wargames In Military And Corporate Settings, Shay Hershkovitz

Naval War College Review

In recent decades, corporations have turned to wargaming techniques to assess strategic environments and evaluate potential scenarios. The rich history of wargaming and its evolution as a tool for predicting success make it a useful corporate instrument. The lessons learned in business and military games can inform each other to create more-effective gaming outcomes.


U.S. Conventional Access Strategy: Denying China A Conventional First-Strike Capability, Sam Goldsmith Mar 2019

U.S. Conventional Access Strategy: Denying China A Conventional First-Strike Capability, Sam Goldsmith

Naval War College Review

In the most likely scenario, a high-intensity conflict between the United States and China would be confined to conventional weapons, owing to Beijing’s desire to avoid nuclear escalation. To protect the global security order and the tenuous balance of power on the world stage, the United States and its allies must craft a strategy to deny China this conventional first-strike option.

The Relationship Of The Merchant Marine To National Power, George D. Synon Feb 2019

The Relationship Of The Merchant Marine To National Power, George D. Synon

Naval War College Review

In considering the relation of the Merchant Marine to na­tional power, it is perhaps automatic for members of the Armed Forces to regard a large fleet of commercial shipping as indis­pensible to the security of the United States.

Organization For National Security, Richard C. Mangrum

Naval War College Review

Important changes were made in the whole structure for national security when Congress passed the National Security Act of 1947.

Light Without Heat, R. E. Williams

Naval War College Review

The fact that modern warfare is everybody's business was distinctly underscored by the proceedings of the War College Round­Table Discussions held during the first week of May, 1949. These conferences, conceived with a view to obtaining the very best in cur­rent strategic thinking, were attended by outstanding men in civilian life and high ranking officers from all branches of the Armed Forces.

Turkey, Walter L. Wright Jr.

Naval War College Review

The country, Turkey, with which I'm dealing this morning is by present day count a small country. It has approximately the same area as the two American states of California and Montana. The area is about two hundred and ninety four thousand square miles, and those two states are a little bit larger than that. It has very much the same topography.

Naval War College Review

I am certainly grateful to the Admiral for his introduction. Speech-making is bad enough in any event-it's a terrible thing but I don't know that it's any worse than speech-listening.

Finance In War, Raymond Rodgers Feb 2019

Finance In War, Raymond Rodgers

Naval War College Review

This whole question of financing war, as it is done nowadays, is not fully understood. In bygone days it had to be done by inflating the currency, and before that by hoarding up treasure or hoarding up actual gold 'value of one sort or another.


Bomber Offensive, L. Maclean Feb 2019

Bomber Offensive, L. Maclean

Naval War College Review

War is essentially an affair of ethics as well as , economics and, though the economical aspect presses heavily on the people of the world today, the ethical aspect has continuously occupied the thoughts of mankind in an unceasing endeavour to diminish war's inevitable horrors, and to limit and localize its effects. The advocates of "air power", in urging their claim for precedence, took a firm stand, with a foot planted squarely on each of these bases.

The Role Of The Navy In Future Warfare, Charles R. Brown Feb 2019

The Role Of The Navy In Future Warfare, Charles R. Brown

Naval War College Review

The title of my talk today is the role of the Navy in future warfare. In such a discussion my inclination is to immediately thrust myself into the future since the history of the past, however glorious, is of little but academic interest to us unless it has definite application in the future.

Naval War College Review

Sea Power Is World Power, George H. Miller Feb 2019

Sea Power Is World Power, George H. Miller

Naval War College Review

Situated between two great oceans, the United States is unmistakably a maritime power. Our forefathers, who crossed the seas to found our na­tion, were seafaring people. They derived their living from the sea, and it is because of the sea that our nation grew and pros­pered. The seas have given us security and economic stability, and these two elements are wholly related, one to the other.
