- Synopsis
- according to colonel thomas hammes, the US is still fighting the last war -- the third-generation war. We believe that high tech weaponry and high tech skills alone can defeat our enemies. But we are wrong. For the enemy has moved into the fourth generation of warfare, and we are not prepared to fight it. Using examples as ancient as Greece and as modern as today's headlines in Iraq, Hammes lays out his arguments cogently and logically and offers ways we can prepare for this new 4GW.
