| Summary/Abstract |
From the late 1970s and until the end of the Cold War, the 'High North' constituted a central theatre for military forces. Extensive NATO preparations were made, a solid infrastructure developed in northern Norway, and frequent and large-scale exercises were carried out. These developments, from the late 1970s, were much discussed by scholars and strategists. However, the change of perception, laying the foundation for the military build-up, had actually occurred a decade earlier, in the late 1960s. This change has not yet been given its rightful attention, partly because the relevant documents have only recently become available. This essay takes the chronology of events back into the 1960s and to NATO's secret discussions between the national Ministers of Defence and Chiefs of Staff. The most significant turning-points were the Flexible Response strategy of 1967; SACLANT's concern over increased Soviet naval activity and his 'Maritime Strategy' studies of 1965 and 1967; NATO's awakening to the Soviet SSBN threat in 1967; and the concept of 'External Reinforcement of the Flanks' of 1968 - finally followed by the 'Brosio Study' (named after the then NATO Secretary-General) of 1969. As a consequence of these developments NATO's 'tactical northern flank' was set to become an independent strategic theatre.

| Summary/Abstract |
The world's main region of oil and gas extraction; the world's busiest trade route; the only year-round route between Russia's European part and its Far East; the home region of Afghanistan and Iraq, the seats of the largest armed conflicts, and of Iran, the target of Western attacks for over three decades - now the Indian Ocean and its littoral zone is an entanglement of numerous problems. Some of the local states cannot boast domestic stability while pirates have made the coastal waters of the Horn of Africa and the Strait of Malacca very dangerous.

| Summary/Abstract |
In a new age of ultra-quiet undersea acoustics, it's high time for the U.S. Navy to revitalize a signature Cold War capability.
In early 1981, a ready-alert P-3C Orion launched from Naval Air Station Bermuda with a crew of 12 officers and enlisted men. An hour earlier the crew had been comfortably asleep as their 24-hour-alert shift was winding down. Now they pulled themselves together as their Orion clawed for altitude, arcing northeast toward the vastness of the North Atlantic Ocean. During the scramble to get airborne there had only been time for a hasty briefing, but they understood the sudden urgency: A Soviet submarine was nearby
