About

On the modern battlefield the US Army may face heavy forces in large-scale battles in fully developed areas of the world. Or it may face light forces in small, limited battles in undeveloped and developing areas. In either place the Army must be ready to fight enemy forces ranging from light, wellequipped, Soviet-supported insurgents to highly mechanized forces typical of Warsaw Pact nations. Wherever the Army is committed to war, it must be able to meet a conflict greater in scope and in intensity than ever before. Its battles may well be more deadly than those fought on any battlefield in history. Previous wars have provided us little experience in fighting in an environment made chaotic by both nuclear and chemical weapons. Today, the number of nations that can employ these weapons is growing.
