Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Since the end of the Gulf War, the debate over whether there should be a separate space service, equal with the Air Force, Army, and Navy, has grown in proportion to the indispensable value of space operations to our nation's defense. Increasing dependency on space-systems is a fact of military life. In this well-documented essay, Col Michael C. Whittington compares the leading arguments for a separate space force to the cogent arguments for an independent air force made by airpower advocates during the interwar years of 1920-1940. The airpower issues in 1920 and the space power issues of today are strikingly similar, revolving around four key issues: leadership, doctrine, technology, and funding. The irony, of course, is that these arguments, which helped create an independent air force in 1947, are challenged by many within today's Air Force leadership, which leads Colonel Whittington to ask, 'If they were cogent in 1920, would they not be relevant today 'This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The success of military chaplaincy depends on the freedoms of its members to fulfill their calling from God. Matters of Conscience proposes that a chaplain's ultimate allegiance must be to Jesus Christ. Otherwise, his commitment to the Constitution - and to those he ministers to - is disingenuous. Matters of Conscience explores the biblical foundation of servant leadership and Christ-centered worship 'within' the chapel walls, then dives deeply into how theology can be applied during both peacetime and war to help those spiritually wounded by the effects of battle.…
