Description

Charles Francis Scanlon (au); Thomas R. Wilson (fw). On 1 Oct. 2001, the DIA commemorated its 40th Anniversary. This history of the DIA starts with DIA in crisis response with the 1998 embassy bombings, moves to the Cuban Missile Crisis, reviews the Cold War, discusses Desert Storm & the current situation in the Balkans, & concludes with the recent EP-3 China incident. The volume records some of DIA’s successes over the years. Traces DIA’s history, first at Arlington Hall Station as the DoD’s one source of strategic defense analysis, & ends with a thorough discussion of DIA as the combat support agency it is today -- a force multiplier supporting combatant commanders facing real world crises. Gives special attention to DIA’s evolving technology, its facilities, & methods of operation. Color photos.
