What we're reading...

"Where possible, U.S. strategy is to employ indirect approaches -- primarily through building the capacity of partner governments and their security forces -- to prevent festering problems from turning into crises that require costly and controversial direct military intervention."

This excerpt is from a recent article in Foreign Affairs by our Secretary of Defense, Robert M. Gates. Secretary Gates argues the DoD must broaden its scope beyond conventional modernization programs, beyond kinetic operations, and include capabilities to promote better governance, economic programs, address grievances and enable partners and allies. Sounds like the skills of the FAO will be required, doesn't it? We invite you to read more of A Balanced Strategy: Reprogramming the Pentagon for a New Age.
