Military planners typically focused on the high and midlevels of conflict where the emphasis was on fighting and winning wars that required the ability to defend, attack, and conduct large-scale combat operations.
The new policy concept is called “militaryoperations other than war.” Such operations cover a wide range of activities in which national military forces are used for purposes other than full-scale combat operations at the general war level of the combat spectrum.
The basic dilemma remains: militaryoperators will not have the clear goals and objectives they consider essential to any planning or execution of their resources; yet civilian decision makers and diplomats will continue to see military forces as one important element of a menu of potential responses to natural and political crises.
A militaryoperation is the employment of military resources (for example in a military campaign) to achieve a specific objective.
It can involve the carrying out of a strategic, tactical, service, training, or administrative military mission in the process of carrying on combat, including movement, supply, attack, defense, and maneuvers needed to gain the objectives of any battle or campaign.
Militaryoperations are often referred to by a code name.
