"This book brings together several relevant views on a very important contemporary issue. It provides a foundation for the development of new theory by offering a way to "see" the challenges associated with the contemporary use of contractors in support of U.S. expeditionary operations."—Claude Christianson, LtGen, US Army (Retired), "In the cacophony of books about military operations since 9/11, Contractors and War is truly a standout. Not only are the contributors authentic experts, they avoid the platitudes that mar lesser efforts, and instead sink their teeth into the toughest issues. This book is a 'must-have' for any serious practitioner or policy maker interested in the way the US has worked—and will work—with contractors in 21st century operations."—Charles J.

Synopsis
The U.S. military is no longer based on a Cold War self-sufficient model. Today's armed forces are a third smaller than they were during the Cold War, and yet are expected to do as much if not more than they did during those years. As a result, a transformation is occurring in the way the U.S. government expects the military to conduct operations--with much of that transformation contingent on the use of contractors to deliver support to the armed forces during military campaigns and afterwards. Contractors and War explains the reasons behind this transformation and evaluates how the private sector will shape and be shaped by future operations. The authors are drawn from a range of policy, legislative, military, legal, and academic backgrounds. They lay out the philosophical arguments supporting the use of contractors in combat and stabilization operations and present a spectrum of arguments that support and criticize emergent private sector roles. The book provides fresh policy guidance to those who will research, direct, and carry out future deployments., The U.S. military is no longer based on a Cold War self-sufficient model.

    These Sockwell socks are great for plantar fasciitis and ankle swelling during the summer. I would actually wear these with shorts. Unfortunately the seller sent me the wrong socks but worked with me to get purchase price refunded and a prepaid envelope sent so I could get them back to her. She was responsive and accommodating. I appreciate that she gave me a refund before I sent the wrong socks back to her. I would buy from her again!

    Thank you MagicMommie. My order arrived quickly, safely and securely packaged in protective mailing. Our family really enjoys this HU chocolate and the dark chocolate with the almond butter and quinoa is a favorite one of ours too. Wishing you all the best always with your business here in eBay and online. Will shop again soon . Take care.
