Hamburger Hill
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. From May 10-20, 1969, US and South Vietnamese troops collided for control of Ap Bia Mountain; in these ten days, fifty-six soldiers lost their lives and four hundred twenty more were wounded from the 101st Airborne. The United States ultimately captured "Hamburger Hill" by killing five hundred ninety-seven enemy soldiers; however, once the conquest is made, orders came down to abandon what they fought so hard to obtain, leaving the hill completely wide open for the North Vietnamese to move in and take back the hill unopposed. This particular military approach was not widely heralded back in the states and created a significant amount of hostility from the American people. Bibliography lists 10 sources.

Harold Seidman on “The Executive Establishment: Culture and Personality”
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 5 page paper discussing the role of the executive within governmental agencies according to Seidman. In Harold Seidman’s text “Politics, Position and Power: the Dynamics of Federal Organization” (1997) he discusses “The Executive Establishment: Culture and Personality” (Chapter 8). While there is an executive hierarchy within the government agencies, influence and position are often dependent on the specific agency and the relationships with those superior. Despite the professional expertise of some secretaries, their appointments are largely related to where in the country they are from, their lifestyle, what their professional and personal background is and how conformist they are to the established values and ideology of a particular agency and in fact are only as free to act “as big as the president, the bureaucracy, the Congress, and their constituencies allow them to be”. While higher executives within agencies fall within the expected traditional roles, undersecretaries and others within the agencies may more so represent the diverse groups within the portfolio. Despite the increase in external “hybrid” agencies, traditional social and cultural expectations remain of executives within the political structure who must conform to rather than try to reform the institutions they administer.

How And Why The U.S. Military Has Repeatedly Been Unprepared To Execute Its Primary Mission At The Outbreak Of Hostilities
[ send me this paper ]
7 pages in length. Stepping foot onto the battlefield is the final component in a long line of preparations whereby the individual who initiates that step is mentally, physically and strategically ready for combat. Unfortunately, this common sense approach to military operations There are a number of considerations above and beyond acquiring a good tactical leader that determine successful organizational strategy in combat. Identifying the root factors affecting the U.S. military's readiness to perform its primary function during the initial stages of Task Force Smith and Operation Desert Storm reveal two indefensible reasons: deplorable leadership and inadequate ammunition. The lack of appropriate training in conjunction with insufficient, inoperable or undersupplied munitions created a scenario whereby every soldier who stepped forth into battle was sure to be ill-equipped to come out alive. Bibliography lists 8 sources.
