Toppling the Taliban: Air-Ground Operations in Afghanistan, October 2001-June 2002

Abstract

Toppling the Taliban reports the results of an analysis of Army operations in Afghanistan between October 2001 and June 2002. It discusses strategy, planning, and organization for Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF); examines Army operations; reports on deployment and logistics issues; describes coalition operations; and considers civil-military operations. Although the main focus is on the Army, attention is also given to other aspects of the joint fight. No modern war can be explained or understood from the perspective of a single Service; OEF is no exception.
