Description

Kenneth Allard. The American mission in Somalia presented U.S. forces with a variety of difficult operational challenges as they tried to bring peace to a country ravaged by natural & man-made disasters. After initial success in the summer of 1992 in restoring order & saving thousands of lives, American soldiers clashed with Somali forces & were withdrawn in the spring of 1994. The author has studied what the Somalia experience can teach us about peace missions & learned how we might improve our capabilities across the spectrum of joint operations. Includes numerous concrete & anecdotal examples. Photos & maps.
