Eisenhower's lasting military legacy, in light of his evolving approach to the concept of unified command. Examining Eisenhower's career from his West Point years to the passage of the 1958 Defense Reorganization Act, David Jablonsky explores Eisenhower's efforts to implement a unified command in the U.S. military-a concept that eventually led to the current organization of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and that, almost three decades after Eisenhower's presidency, played a major role in defense reorganization under the Goldwater-Nichols Act. In the new century, Eisenhower's approach continues to animate reform discussion at the highest level of government in terms of the interagency process.Yale library of military history.Unified operations (Military science)History20th centuryCombined operations (Military science)History20th centuryWorld War, 1939-1945CampaignsWestern FrontUnited StatesArmed ForcesOrganizationUnited StatesMilitary policyUnited StatesHistory, Military20th centuryElectronic books.Unified operations (Military science)HistoryCombined operations (Military science)HistoryWorld War, 1939-1945Campaigns973.921092BJablonsky David1026483MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910463111803321War by land, sea, and air2441409UNINA
