PISCES The Commander's Tool for an Effective Exit Strategy

摘要

Even though multiple lessons have been learned and applied to the evolution of Political-Military Interactions at the Strategic and Operational Levels of War, current Combatant Commanders have the appropriate tools available at the Operational-Tactical Level in order to confront, coordinate and compete in Complex Contingency Operations.

The current Special Operations Civil Affairs Teams provide the ideal model on which to base such a force.
