Description
Summary:	"This Torchbearer National Security Report outlines the way ahead for the Fires Force, including changes in doctrine, infrastructure, systems and processes to maximize the synergies shared by Air Defense and Field Artillery. Each one of the issue papers details a critical component of the plan. The goal is to continuously adapt to a versatile mix of tailorable and networked organizations, operating on a rotational cycle, to provide a sustained flow of trained and ready forces for full-spectrum operations and to hedge against unexpected contingencies -- at a tempo that is predictable and sustainable for the all-volunteer force."--Page 2.
