The Need for the Military Intelligence Branch in the U.S. Army

Abstract

The question has been raised as to the continuing need for a Military Intelligence Branch in the US Army of the future. The validity of the question has been examined, and the overall value and importance of the military intelligence specialization to the Army has been reviewed. The increasing need for a viable and professional military intelligence specialty, the growing recognition of this need, and the possible results of not having such a professional branch are discussed. It has been determined that the successful accomplishment of the US Army's mission would be impaired if there were not a Military Intelligence Branch.
