Arguments of alfred thayer mahan quizlet professional#
One of the godfathers of the Naval War College and professional military education, his name has also become a nearly mandatory cliché when discussing naval strategy. One of the names which came up a few times at Current Strategy Forum was Alfred Thayer Mahan.
CAPT “Barney” Rubel (ret), the outgoing Dean of Naval Warfare Studies in Newport, points this out in his recent monograph “ Writing to Think.” He tells us that taking the time to sit down and write about professional subjects like strategy and policy has the ability to clarify and organize things, making our thoughts more useful. Luckily, the anonymous student stumbled upon the perfect way to provide the feedback: writing about it. This is reflected in some of the internet “after action” writing, including a post written with obvious frustration by a War College student and published at Steeljaw Scribe and CDR Salamander. One of the things the organizers of the conference failed to offer, however, was an obvious outlet to provide the feedback. One of the things Admiral Greenert said, and was repeated a number of times by the other Admirals, was that the OPNAV staff is looking for help in working on the new iteration of the Cooperative Strategy for 21st Century Seapower (CS21).
