Gen. Bob Scales, USA (Ret.)Annapolis, Maryland :Naval Institute Press,2016.©20161 online resource (191 pages)Includes index.1-68247-102-0 Includes bibliographical references and index."Scales on War is a collection of ideas, concepts, and observations about contemporary war taken from over thirty years of research, writing, and personal experience by retired Maj. Gen. Bob Scales. Each chapter addresses a distinct topic facing the upcoming prospects of America's military, including tactical ground warfare, future gazing, the draft, and the role of women in the infantry. Fusing all of these topics together is Scales' belief that, throughout its history, the United States has favored a technological approach to fighting its wars and has neglected its ground forces."--Provided by publisher.Military art and scienceUnited StatesUnited StatesMilitary policy21st centuryUnited StatesArmed ForcesOperational readinessMilitary art and science355/.033573Scales Robert H.1944-1146981MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910817847903321Scales on war3967140UNINA
