Title: A journalist's view
Review: As defense correspondent to the New York Times, Halloran makes his observations as a civilian and as a journalist. He claims that the public has lost confidence in the military and that the loss of that confidence has created a critical deficiency in terms of combat readiness, field leadership and infantry training. Issues he covers are Vietnam, the volunteer draft, nuclear arms, detente (this book was written in the mid-80s), the MX. He also discusses the effect public outcry against the war in Southeast Asia had on defense and exposes the bureaucratic wrangling that plagues the defense budget.Although it was written some time ago, the political forces he mentions are very much active today and affect our war against terrorists. The American voter needs to be aware of these forces since they directly affect the safety of our nation and of us all.
