\u00a0Archie to Sam. A Short Operational history of Ground-Based Air Defense<\/a>\u00a0[308 Pages, 5.46MB] –\u00a0Dr. Kenneth Werrell\u2019s history of ground-based air defense\u00a0performs an important service both to scholarship and,\u00a0more importantly, to the defense of our nation\u2019s freedom. It\u00a0is perhaps human nature that we tend over time to lose sight\u00a0of the lessons of the past, especially when they do not conform\u00a0to certain cherished preconceptions of ours. That such\u00a0myopia can be dangerous, if not downright disastrous, Dr.\u00a0Werrell\u2019s study richly illustrates. Without sentimentalism,\u00a0he chronicles a pattern of lessons learned and too quickly\u00a0forgotten as the marvel of air power was reminded again\u00a0and again of its limitations and vulnerability. In Korea and\u00a0in Vietnam, the American people were stripped of their illusions\u00a0of national and technical omnipotence. The unhappy\u00a0outcome of those two conflicts was doubly lamentable because\u00a0the lessons of World War II were\u2014or should have\u00a0been\u2014fresh in our minds. In that world war, as Dr. Werrell\u00a0shows, relatively cheap ground-based air defense did\u00a0make a difference: at Ploesti, at Antwerp, and at the Rhine\u00a0bridges.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

This result exceeded the anticipation of Soviet leaders who had structured entire maps on the development of nuclear weapons. The rivalry with the United States which had started in this manner had reached the point where, by the early 1980’s, each side had at its disposal 10 thousand nuclear warheads mounted on delivery vehicles with strategic ranges capable of reaching enemy territory.<\/em><\/p>\n The Weapon of Victory<\/a> [11 Pages, 2.1MB]<\/p>\n
