They therefore follow agreed defence planning procedures which provide the methodology and machinery for deter- mining the forces required to implement Alliance policies, for coordinating national defence plans and for establish- ing force planning goals which are in the interests of the Alliance as a whole. The North Atlantic Treaty of April 1949 brought into being an Alliance of independent countries with a common interest in maintaining peace and defending their freedom through political solidarity and adequate military defence to deter and, if necessary, repel all poss- ible forms of aggression against them. www.elastic.org /~fche/mirrors/www.textfiles.com/politics/natohandbook.pol

Chickamauga & Chattanooga National Military Park (National Park Service) The first and largest of these, and the one upon which the establishment and development of most other national military and historical parks was based, was Chickamauga and Chattanooga. Between 1890 and 1899 the Congress of the United States authorized the establishment of the first four national military parks: Chickamauga and Chattanooga, Shiloh, Gettysburg, and Vicksburg. It owes its existence largely to the efforts of General H.V. Boynton and Ferdinand Van Derveer, both veterans of the Army of the Cumberland, who saw the need for a national park to preserve and commemorate these battlefields during a visit to the area in 1888. www.nps.gov /chch   (111 words)

Journal of Intelligence History In 1942 the different groups were reorganised into the newly founded FRA, the National Defence Radio Establishment. Swedish Sigint used the opportunity that German diplomatic and military telegraph traffic passed through Swedish owned cables, utilized the cryptanalytic genius of the mathematician Arne Beurling and his team to decipher the teleprinter messages of the Siemens and Halske Geheimschreiber T 52 and the Hellschreiber. In this way, the issue of how best to strike a viable balance between national security interests and civil liberties is ‘magically’ resolved by the bizarre strategy of simply denying that there ever has been any legitimate national security interests. www.intelligence-history.org /jih/reviews-3-1.html   (196 words)

Bureaucratic Politics and the Department of National Defence In very general terms, actors outside of the defence establishment were motivated by the expectation of a peace dividend resulting from the end of the Cold War, whereas, actors internal to the defence establishment were busy trying to develop a new rational for an operational military. As such, the existence of a military establishment is not longer justified as defence for the sake of defence, but rather defence for the sake of trade, politics, economics and aid to civil power. Under these conditions the Department of National Defence has, and justifiably so, lost the ability to be a dominate force in the formulation, development and execution of defence policy in Canada. www.cda-cdai.ca /symposia/2000/hataley.htm   (9114 words)

CENTRAL ASIA - CAUCASUS ANALYST Firstly, the establishment of U.S. military bases in Central Asia has had a huge impact on the strategic balance within the region, as Uzbekistan became a de facto strategic partner of the U.S. The establishment of U.S. bases in Uzbekistan and increased military aid have boosted Uzbekistan’s stance in Central Asia. Proponents argue that establishment of the military bases would restore the lost strategic balance in the region, and as President Putin still fully supports the U.S.-led war against terrorism, there is no risk of jeopardizing Kazakhstan-Russia relations. Secondly, the establishment of U.S. military bases in Uzbekistan ay have fueled personal rivalries between the Kazakhstani and Uzbekistani leadership. www.cacianalyst.org /view_article.php?articleid=379   (1165 words)

National Veterans Inquiry on U.S. War Crimes in Vietnam (Washington D.C., Dec. 1-3 1970) Congress represents the people of America, and I believe the people are sick of the war, sick of the war crimes, and sick of the Military Establishment’s handling of these problems.

Marine History At Gulf Islands National Seashore, the French establishment of a Gulf coast military and territorial presence at the beginning of the eighteenth century is exemplified by the archeological evidence of the French warehouse site at Ship Island. Also to be noted are the remains of the USS Cairo at Vicksburg National Military Park, Mississippi, a reminder of the riverine naval actions during the war, such as those that took place on the Mississippi River at Fort Donelson and the Tennessee River at Pittsburg Landing (Shiloh National Military Park). At Biscayne National Park several sites that come to mind are the wrecksites of the steamboat St. Lucie, the locally famous mail packet and coastal transport wrecked in the historic hurricane of 1906, and the Lugana and the Alicia, two of the last vessels ever worked by Southeast Florida wreckers. www.cr.nps.gov /seac/marihist.htm   (1586 words)

Saudi Arabian National Guard Although not subordinate to the minister of defense and aviation and frequently referred to as a paramilitary or an internal security force, the national guard came to be regarded as a integral part of the Saudi military establishment with the modernization of its active units and its role in the Persian Gulf War. The SANG is not a reserve component similar to the national guard of the United States; at least part of it was an active-duty armed force existing parallel to, but separate from, the regular military service branches. The national guard was the first Saudi military unit to respond to the invasion and took up strategic defensive positions along the border with Kuwait. www.globalsecurity.org /military/world/gulf/sang.htm   (1687 words)
