Focuses on the evolution of the role of judge advocates in military operations and how this development has enhanced commanders' ability to succeed. Explores how soldier-lawyers have evolved from their Vietnam-era responsibility simply to provide traditional legal services to today's practice of "operational law" in which Army lawyers provide a broad range of legal services that directly affect the conduct of an operation. Examines what individuals did as judge advocates in selected deployments. |
