An assessment of the maritime component of a series of historical and ongoing operations reveals that current notions of irregular warfare would benefit from increased recognition of potential maritime contributions. 606 $aNaval art and science 606 $aIrregular warfare$zUnited States$vCase studies 606 $aRiverine operations$zUnited States$vCase studies 606 $aPiracy$xPrevention$vCase studies 606 $aMaritime terrorism$xPrevention$vCase studies 615 0$aNaval art and science. 615 0$aIrregular warfare 615 0$aRiverine operations 615 0$aPiracy$xPrevention 615 0$aMaritime terrorism$xPrevention 676 $a359.4/2 701 $aDunigan$b Molly$0904725 712 02$aNational Defense Research Institute (U.S.) 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910219978003321 996 $aCharacterizing and exploring the implications of maritime irregular warfare$92023204 997 $aUNINA
