Book Description:
About the Author:
David Galula's seminal work, Counterinsurgency: Theory and Practice evolved directly from a thesis he had written while attending the U.S. Armed Forces Staff College in 1960. The thesis itself was the product of 15 years of deliberation on how to counter communist subversion and revolution. Today, Galula's writings continue to be highly applicable and relevant to modern conflicts and theaters of war.
A.A. Cohen fought in Operation Enduring Freedom in Kandahar, Afghanistan, where he was awarded the Chief of Defense Staff Commendation for outstanding initiative and motivation, and for establishing vital relationships with the local population.
