The process not only modernized equipment, it also substantially altered doctrine, organization, training, administrative and logistical practices, and the service culture. The resultant digitized expeditionary Army was as different from the late Cold War Army as the late Cold War Army was from that of the early Cold War or from the mobilization-based Armies of World Wars I and II. The book further contends that the digitized expeditionary Army has withstood the test of combat, performing superbly with respect to deployment and high-end conventional combat and capably with respect to low-intensity conflict. 000428781 61010 $$aUnited States.$$bArmy$$xReorganization$$xHistory$$y20th century. 000428781 61010 $$aUnited States.$$bArmy$$xReorganization$$xHistory$$y21st century. 000428781 61010 $$aUnited States.$$bArmy$$xHistory$$y20th century. 000428781 61010 $$aUnited States.$$bArmy$$xHistory$$y21st century. 000428781 650_0 $$aMilitary doctrine$$zUnited States$$xHistory$$y20th century. 000428781 650_0 $$aMilitary doctrine$$zUnited States$$xHistory$$y21st century. 000428781 7102_ $$aCenter of Military History. 000428781 77608 $$iOnline version:$$aBrown, John Sloan, 1949-$$tKevlar legions$$w(OCoLC)759406464 000428781 85200 $$bgen$$hUA25$$i.B78$$i2011 000428781 85640 $$zOnline access$$uhttp://purl.fdlp.gov/GPO/gpo16049 000428781 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:428781$$pGLOBAL_SET 000428781 980__ $$aBIB 000428781 980__ $$aBOOK 000428781 983__ $$aOnline
