 The Silent War against the Japanese Navy
Monitoring Japanese naval communications, they were able to deduce from patterns alone that the entire fleet had sortied from Japan and was engaged in an exercise of massive proportions.
Although the ability to read Japanese naval messages was expanding rapidly just before the battle of Midway, that less than fifty of the 280 ships later acknowledged to have been present were ever mentioned in JN-25 decrypts points to a subtle limitation as to what intelligence can be derived through cryptanalysts.
In fact at the outset of the war, traffic analysis was, as it had been for many years, the only source of current intelligence bearing upon the strategic posture and the disposition of the surface, subsurface, and air elements of the Japanese navy.

 Chesty: The Story of Lieutenant General Lewis B. Puller, USMC. . - book review Naval War College Review - Find Articles   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-29)
What makes this current biography so intriguing is Hoffman's willingness to confront the more controversial aspects of Puller's career, such as his performance at Peleliu, where his unit's casualty rate exceeded 54 percent, as well as his alleged indifference toward junior officers and to other services.
Puller was born in the Virginia Tidewater in 1898 and enlisted in the Marine Corps on 25 July 1918, too late to fight in World War I. He first saw combat during the interwar period, when the United States frequently dispatched Marines to quell domestic disturbances throughout the Caribbean.
A vocal critic of government policy during the war, Puller watched his son, Lewis Puller, Jr., carry on the Puller name in combat.

 Thomas P.M. Barnett :: Weblog: Reviewing the Reviews (Naval War College Review)
There is little threat of war or widespread violence in the Core, because its members enjoy the benefits of globalization, specifically rising standards of living.
In remarks onboard the carrier the president claimed that "the battle of Iraq is one victory in a war on terror that began on September 11th, 2001" and that the defeat of Saddam Hussein was "a crucial advance in the campaign against terror."
But more seriously, the review is not of the book, but of the Bush administration's decision to go to war in Iraq, of which Korb, a manpower official in a Republican administration long, long ago, clearly disapproved.

 Military Theory of War, Warfare Theory, Principles of War, Military Strategy, Theories, Theorists
Assuming that a nation at war has some rational objectives, the next question is: “Is the national military strategy tailored to meet the national political objectives?” What this question suggests is that there be a close correlation between the political ends of war and the military means employed to achieve those ends.
Of all theories on the art of war, the only reasonable one is that which, founded upon the study of military history, admits a certain number of regulating principles, but leaves to natural genius the greatest part in the general conduct of a war without trammeling it with exclusive rules.
In strategic war, a clash may well take place, but it is not always necessary, should normally be avoided, and is almost always a means to an end and not an end in itself.

 PARAMETERS, US Army War College Quarterly - Autumn 1999
War may well be a ubiquitous part of the human condition, but war's permanence does not necessarily mean that the slaughters of the 20th century are permanent.[6]
Although the extent to which the proliferation of long-distance, push-button war serves to replace that ethos with a new ethic is as yet uncertain, it is imperative that whatever emerges instills in tomorrow's soldiers those moral underpinnings which will further develop the application of ethical and legal norms in future conflicts.
While technology can obviously deter war, it is still true that "technology and warfare have never been far apart."[147] Clearly, statesmen and soldiers need to be concerned about procuring the technology necessary for US forces to prevail in any conflict.
