Training for Today's Security Challenges
Abstract
The emerging security challenges faced by the Marine Corps dictate that it retains the ability to defeat an adversary across the entire spectrum of conflict. As the enemy continues to adapt his tactics and as irregular warfare becomes more prevalent, the Marine Corps must resist the temptation to focus training on the lower end of the spectrum and degrade its ability to counter a conventional threat. The greater the success the Marine Corps has in countering irregular warfare, the greater the possibility that a conventional threat will emerge. By ensuring that individual Marines understand the fundamentals of maneuver warfare doctrine and can employ them against a conventional threat, the easier it will be to adapt to the uncertainty found in today's security environment.
