Summary / Abstract (Note) | The Quadrennial Defence Review (QDR) will have been completed as of this writing, but will not yet have been published. Facing new strategic priorities and mounting fiscal pressures, it is anticipated that the capacity or size of American landpower will be substantially reduced: the Army`s strength could be decremented to a post world war II low of just 420,000 to 450,000 soldiers. This article considers the implication of such reductions. |
