Futures Command: Seriously, AFRICOM
http://futurescommand.blogspot.com/2008/01/seriously-africom.html
The Empires of the Future are Empires of the Mind Winston Churchill. Monday, January 7, 2008. I'm all for the establishment of AFRICOM as a new US Combatant Commander. It's probably long overdue. While the command faces some challenges - namely a skeptical Africa, and integrating an interagency community into a largely non-military, non-kinetic fight (where, by the way there is still no Goldwater-Nichols type mandate for interagency participation), I hope for the best out of AFRICOM. Center for Strategic...

An Independent Analyst and Scholar of War, Warfare, Peace, and Policy. Monday, November 4, 2013. Asleep, Wilfred Owen. Writer’s Almanac today reminds us that. 8220;It was on this day in 1918 that British war poet Wilfred Owen. Under his helmet, up against his pack,. After so many days of work and waking. Sleep took him by the brow and laid him back. There, in the happy no-time of his sleeping,. Death took him by the heart. There heaved a quaking. Of frustrate life, like child within him leaping….

The Military Philosopher: What Is To Be Done?
http://militaryphilosopher.blogspot.com/2015/02/what-is-to-be-done.html
An Independent Analyst and Scholar of War, Warfare, Peace, and Policy. Sunday, February 8, 2015. What Is To Be Done? As we begin the year 2015, we are hearing echoes of a century ago. Many people are asking themselves why we should concern ourselves with “a quarrel in a faraway country between people of whom we know nothing” – and I will discuss that further in a future posting. But what is actually at stake here right now? Obviously, the future of a free, independent, and democratic Ukraine;. We are now...

http://militaryphilosopher.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
An Independent Analyst and Scholar of War, Warfare, Peace, and Policy. Sunday, April 21, 2013. Hey, Watcha Reading? Like many of my friends, I do a lot of reading, usually as many as four or five books at a time. These often include fiction for entertainment, a military history or two on a battle or campaign of interest, perhaps a biography or memoir, and maybe a political science of economics text or other non-fiction work. This year I am re-reading Carl von Clausewitz’ “On War”. I am again so impressed...

An Independent Analyst and Scholar of War, Warfare, Peace, and Policy. Wednesday, December 12, 2012. The Defense of the Flag and Lorado Taft. Following up the lead offered by markings on the base of the memorial, I visited the Smithsonian Museum of American Art’s collection of the Gorham Foundry’s papers, but these records shed no further light on the sculptor’s identity nor offered any further leads to pursue.
