    About this ebook

    Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

    #1 The American Army was crippled by a crisis of confidence and a growing culture of apathy and neglect in the early seventies. But in 1973, the Army began to revive itself by adopting a zero tolerance policy for drugs and enforcing new standards of discipline.

    #2 The Army began to train and prepare their soldiers more thoroughly in the 1970s, and as a result, their readiness improved. However, the American public remained skeptical of the Army’s vitality, and the quality of life for soldiers continued to decrease throughout the 1970s.

    #3 The push for more money and better recruits went hand in hand with a revitalization of the Army’s tactical doctrine. The focus returned to the defense of Western Europe, and General Donn Starry realized that the current doctrine of Active Defense couldn’t defeat the Warsaw Pact in a conventional showdown.
