Case Studies in Operational Culture - Paperback

by Pamela Holmes-Eber (Author), Marcus J. Mainz (Author), Marine Corps University Press (Author)

Case Studies in Operational Culture draws together the experiences of 22 field grade military officers from the U.S. Army, Navy, Air Force, and Marine Corps, as well as two of our military allies, Canada and Australia. Each of these officers has written a succinct summary of the cultural challenges that he or she faced in a previous operation, along with an explanation of the lessons learned as a result. Applying the cultural concepts described in two previous volumes in this series, Operational Culture for the Warfighter and Applications in Operational Culture, these essays provide detailed illustrations of how specific cultural factors had a direct impact on the success of military operations.
