<p>This 2019 report has been professionally converted for accurate flowing-text e-book format reproduction. In his seminal book, Dr. Raymond Millen examines America’s approach to the implementation of Civil Affairs and Military Government in the Mediterranean and European theaters during World War II. Starting from scratch, the Provost Marshal General’s Office published the doctrine, created the organizations, trained the personnel, and managed the program, which culminated with the occupation of Germany. While the War Department held no illusions regarding the complexity of the mission, enormous challenges confronted Civil Affairs soldiers as the conflict unfolded. Each campaignーnorthwest Africa, Sicily, Italy, France, the Benelux, and Germanyーpresented unique and wicked problems which defied easy solutions. Whether working in devastated towns or cities, austere areas, or chaotic environments, Civil Affairs soldiers were instrumental in stabilizing rear areas. In the midst of political, economic, and even societal collapse, Civil Affairs teams restored governance, local economies, and order. Because of their professional backgrounds, competency, and solid judgement, Civil Affairs soldiers set the conditions for military success. Due to the efforts of Civil Affairs, General Dwight D. Eisenhower was able to maximize combat power against the Axis forces, precluding the need to divert combat units for garrison duties and securing the lines of communication. Without these unsung heroes, Victory in Europe would have been more costly and extended by months.</p> <p>This compilation includes a reproduction of the 2019 Worldwide Threat Assessment of the U.S. Intelligence Community.</p> <p>Bury the Dead, Feed the Living is more than a history on Civil Affairs; rather, it is a detailed account of how the United States conducted Stability Operations from the shores of Morocco to the mountains of Germany. Dr. Raymond Millen’s book serves as a primer on preparing, organizing and implementing Stability in the course of a conflict. Current doctrine has a litany of new terms for military occupation, Military Government, and security of rear areas, but for the Soldiers implementing stabilization-related activities, only the terminology has changed, not the tasks.</p> <p>Of interest is the degree of friction between the Roosevelt administration and the War Department regarding the responsibility for the civil administration of occupied territories during World War II. Although the War Department and Supreme Allied Commander, General Dwight D. Eisenhower, were perfectly willing to have U.S. civilian agencies conduct civil administration of occupied areas, the agencies proved incapable, so the military assumed de facto responsibility. Further, one of the great insights from the war is that the military must be prepared to execute a host of tasks with no or contradictory policy guidance. When thousands of civilians are dying, the military must step forward. As Dr. Millen reveals, small teams of Civil Affairs specialists had an enormous, but little noted, impact on the lives of millions of Europeans. Virtually every situation imaginable was encountered by Civil Affairs officers and teams. Thousands of villages and cities were utterly devastated, with the authorities and populations prostrated with shock.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。
