Abstract

It is not clear at this time whether the strategy advocated in the Defense Guidance will enhance the national security of the United States. Both its technological and sociological feasibility are seriously in doubt. The manpower policy challenges posed by that strategy are enormous in their applications. The branchings in the paths ahead are altogether too numerous for easy mapping or classification. It seems crystal clear, however, that most of them involve choices that could more confidently be made were we to have much better information about our manpower than is presently available to commanders and managers in the Department of Defense.
