	Chapter 4 - Chemicals in Combat
		The theater quartermaster called in and reissued protective clothing for every individual in the theater at the same time that the distribution of the lightweight mask was in process.
		Specifically with respect to PROCO, the War Department allowed the theater to labor under a misapprehension of the PROCO concept from June until November 1943, and apparently the War Department concept was not understood by the CWS ETO until the reinstatement of the revised projects in February 1944.
		Although the theater had top supply priority over all other theaters and although the theater commander was firmly committed to the policy of giving combat commanders everything they desired, the exigencies of transportation and War Department-controlled supply authorization procedures tended to block timely measures for preventing a crisis.

	The Lion's Share of Power Projection
		In theater warfare, US maritime power-projection forces--carrier aviation and Tomahawk land-attack cruise missiles--play a relatively minor role in destroying an enemy's fixed assets and ground forces, which are two important operational objectives assigned to air forces.
		Theater warfare has been and is now the primary determinant of general-purpose force structure.
		When the need to fight two simultaneous theater wars is considered, the results are similar to those seen in our single-war case, in terms of both relative distribution of effort and time required to achieve our thresholds.

		Theater air operations, nominally originating from a base within the AO and servicing all other theater air destinations on a prescribed schedule, can be input through the HCI.
		The theater supply manager recognizes the appropriate level of the requirement and establishes a transportation request to distribute appropriate commodities to the appropriate echelon.
		When the theater supply manager calculates that the projected demand will exceed the theater inventory a report to the theater command is generated.

		Theater missiles are a form of aerospace power that will be critical for achievement of information dominance and air superiority in the opening phase of a conflict.
		Large scale theater missile raids, combined with other enablers such as electronic attack, directed against selected critical nodes within a neighbor’s command and control structure or air defense system, could produce sufficient shock and destruction to enable conventional air operations to be carried out at reduced risk and cost.
		To augment its theater ballistic missile arsenal, China is creating a new generation of cruise missiles able to penetrate defenses and strike critical targets with increased precision and firepower.

	Navy League of the United States - Citizens in Support of the Sea Services
		In the area of undersea warfare and theater antisubmarine warfare, the experiment aimed to test undersea warfare planning and command and communications procedures involving local anti-submarine warfare commanders and the theater anti-submarine warfare commander.
		The authors recommended that the Navy adapt the existing battle group commander guidance for the theater commander and add 12 personnel--three officers and nine enlisted billets--to the theater antisubmarine warfare staff for operational-level crisis planning.
		Another key element in the ant-submarine warfare portion of FBE Kilo was the flow of information between the theater antisubmarine warfare commander and the local ASW commanders.

	THEATHER WARFARE: CAN THE AIRLAND BATTLE SUCCEED WITHOUT CLOSE AIR SUPPORT?
		In terms of United States theater warfare doctrine, the process is one in which the roles of the Army and Air Force must obviously overlap.
		By using tactics and a myriad of "combined arms suppression techniques" (artillery, infantry, electronic countermeasures, smoke, antiradiation missiles, communica- tions jamming, etc.), it may be possible to neutralize the air defense for those critical minutes that the CAS strike requires.
		Thus it is not only the lethality of the modern aggressor that must concern the pilot in support of ground troops, but also the fact that his friendly supporting cast must be carefully and meticulously orchestrated.

	Theater Battle Management Core Systems
		The Theater Battle Management Core Systems (TBMCS) program provides the Combat Air Forces (CAF) and the Joint/Combined Forces with an automated and integrated capability to plan and execute the air battle plan for operations and intelligence personnel at the force and unit levels.
		TBMCS provides the air commander with the means to plan, direct, and control all theater air operations in support of command objectives and to coordinate with ground and maritime elements engaged in the same operation.
		The Theater Battle Management Core System (TBMCS) is the future replacement for the Contingency Theater Automated Planning System (CTAPS) applications and communication interfaces which allow the ground commander to nominate, track, and verify targets in the Air Tasking Order.

		What future warfare will look like depends, to a great extent, on the issues of where, under what circumstances, and for what purposes a country will commit armed forces.
		The technological battlefield requires theater development, but this development may be lacking and the enemy unwilling to postpone battle until the requisite preparations have been accomplished.
		Though time and technology have changed the theater of war, the question of annihilation versus attrition warfare remains even in the age of stand-off weapons.

		Theater Air Warfare Dominance It has been a good, solid year in Theater Air Warfare and our Surface Navy is well positioned to continue positive movement.
		Undersea Warfare Undersea Warfare, which includes ASW and Mine Warfare, is and will remain a Navy core competency and is critical to assured access.
		Mine Warfare As the CNO, Admiral Jay Johnson said, "mine warfare is a unique Navy core capability that must become a prime warfighting area we shall treat as important as strike." While it is preferable to avoid mined areas (using our knowledge superiority), military objectives may require operations in close proximity to mined waters.

	Afghanistan PGM 'future of warfare' hubris debunked (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		This was not guerilla warfare (at least, not in the major actions through the fall of Kandahar and the end of Operation Anaconda): the Taliban sought to hold ground and deny access to key cities and other strategic objectives.
		One such theater is Iraq, the focus of perhaps the most pressing immediate decision confronting the conduct of the ongoing war.
		The Army's unique contribution to warfare of the kind seen in Afghanistan is its ability to cope with targets who reduce their exposure to deep attack by dismounting, dispersing, covering, and concealing themselves.

	How Advances in Information and Firepower Can Transform Warfare
		Traditional approaches to theater warfare demand that large numbers of U.S. or allied ground forces be deployed abroad in areas threatened by short-notice attack.
		In theaters that do not feature heavily foliated or urbanized terrain, joint U.S. forces will be able to rapidly halt armored invasions short of their objectives even in highly stressing scenarios, provided that sufficient investments are made in the emerging information and firepower systems.
		Such cuts are warranted both because of the importance of halting enemies early and because advanced information and firepower systems now enable a shift in the division of labor among the types of forces for theater warfare.

	Commander Task Force Twelve brings cutting edge technology to undersea warfare
		There are only four Theater Undersea Warfare Commanders in the world, a challenging statistic considering that the world is comprised of more than 75 percent ocean.
		If the United States were called to action off the coast of a hostile nation, the Theater Commander would initiate a search of the waterspace in preparation for a carrier strike group to operate.
		Due to the potential threat to carrier strike groups, CTF-12 is directing a Theater USW initiative designed to focus on real-time connectivity of various assets to work together as a highly organized and effective team.

	Theater Warfare, Movement, and Airpower (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		More evidence of the importance of movement in warfare can be seen by the number of great victories in history that were characterized by the use of movement to create and then exploit the advantages of surprise, concentration, and position.
		Dynamic, asymmetric joint warfare involves the creation and execution of interdiction and ground maneuver schemes that are designed to exploit the tremendous interdiction capabilities possessed by US forces, while ensuring the two different schemes complement and reinforce each other.
		Given the importance of movement to warfare, it is extremely important to recognize that the value of interdiction should not be judged solely in terms of the amount of destruction that is actually inflicted.

	Russia's Nonstrategic Nuclear Weapons
		Proponents of this transformation labeled it "sixth-generation warfare" and associated its appearance with the end of the hegemony of nuclear weapons and deterrence.
		If the first four generations of warfare were evolutionary, growing out of one into another and gradually transforming battlefield tactics, the fifth generation's leap in destructive power broke the Clausewitzian logic of war as a continuation of politics.
		The renewed emphasis on nonstrategic nuclear weapons in theater warfare should be seen as the result of factors shaping Russian military doctrine over the past four years.
