更要认真总结缺点——年终总结随想

落榜生易走极端的几点启示

战士小胡,文化水平较高,入伍前以4分之差高考落榜。他抱着到部队考军校的动机入伍后,充分利用业余时间复习文化课。报考院校时,总分超过了录取线,但因档案不合格未被录取。这个沉重的打击使他感到理想化成了泡影。一天晚上,他悄悄躲进连队杂品库,写好遗书准备一死了之。排长看见双眼红肿的小胡立刻警觉起来,进入库房发现遗书。他感到事态严重,迅速向指导员作了汇报。面对这生命攸关的事,如果处理不好,不但毁了战士的一生,而且还会造一系列的不良影响。做好小胡的思想转化工作刻不容缓。连队党支部认真分析了小胡产生悲观厌世的原因,要求大家…

父爱是一口深井

2004年,当我穿上绿色军装时,18岁的生日刚刚过去10天。登年离家的那天,人山人海的火车站站满了送行的人,但没有一个人为我送行。父亲说,当兵了,就要自己独立,从今天起,什么事都要靠自己。离别的车站让人难舍难分,唯独我一个人坐在座位上流泪。我埋怨,埋怨父亲的无情。火车由北一路向南,穿过了长江,在数不清的大山里盘绕,想家的思绪也被火车拉得越来越长。第二天的深夜,我们到了充满神秘色彩的新兵连。新兵班长把我们领到饭堂、餐桌上,摆着冒着热气的鸡蛋面。班长说,这叫"长留面",吃了要在部队好好干。

怀念罗家坪的那群兵

梦里,我又回到了罗家坪。这是位于云南省马关县东南部靠近边境的一座大山,海拔2000多米。是的,这就是我的老连队驻守的地方。我在这里待了3年。3年时间虽然不长,却给了我刻骨铭心的记忆。5月的一天,我重回罗家坪。从文山出发,几经峰回路转,就到了被大山环抱的某边防连。如同平常,罗家坪依然一片雾海。这里一年至少有三分之二的时间被大雾笼罩,又称"雾的王国"。知道我要来,战友们几天前便晾晒了被褥,但招待室依然弥漫着潮湿发霉的味道。连长正带人吃力地抬着储物柜,     

用新的理念推进部队建设全面发展

党的十六届五中全会提出。要全面贯彻落实科学发展观,转变发展观念,创新发展模式。提高发展质量。这是以胡锦涛同志为总书记的党中央坚持以邓小平理论和“三个代表”重要思想为指导。从新时期新阶段党和国家发展全局出发提出的重大战略思想。科学发展观的第一要义是发展。发展的动力在创新。观念的转变是根本的转变。理念的创新是发展的先导。当前,在部队建设理念上。有一些与科学发展观不相适应的地方。一些陈旧观念、落后思维方式制约着部队建设的创新发展。全面贯彻落实科学发展观,必须强化创新意识,善于用新的理念提高部队建设发展质量。     

Helping hands: civil–military cooperation and Italy's military operation abroad

In the Post-Bipolar Era the growing complexity of the military operations requires a new approach for the resolution of international crises. Since the end of the Cold War, peace support operations (PSO) have become the mainstay and principal occupation of most Western armies. At the same time, Italy has been one of the most important actors in such an area. The article focuses on the cooperation between military and civil components (a process called CIMIC) as a key variable in the Italian PSOs. We will analyse in detail the main lessons learned from past military interventions as well as the general context in which new tendencies are taking place. The maintaining of a minimum security frame becomes essential to fulfil activities ‘collateral’ to the mission: reconstructing services and infrastructure, food distribution, water and medication, law and order, de-mining, training of local forces, and supporting local institutions. These are the main tasks to obtain thrust and support from the population.     

Terrorism,insurgency, kidnapping,and security in Africa's energy sector

Energy continues to serve as the bedrock of modern economies and the main driver of modern society. For Africa, the production and supply of energy resources such as crude oil, natural gas, uranium, coal, biomass, biofuels and other renewables are an important source of employment, rents, taxes, royalties and profits. This sector brings in several tens of billions of dollars of revenue annually. The production and delivery of such resources, however, depend on critical infrastructures such as pipelines, refineries, processing plants, terminals, rigs, electrical energy pylons, substations, pump stations, vessels, and tankers. These infrastructures have been attacked by terrorists, insurgents, vandals and saboteurs, all of whom see them as targets against which to register their grievances and extract concessions from the state. This paper is a chronological account of some of the documented incidents of terrorism, insurgency, kidnapping, destruction, sabotage, and human casualties suffered in the oil and gas sectors in Africa between 1999 and 2012. It is based on data extracted from the databases of the RAND Database of World Terrorism Incidents and the University of Maryland's Global Terrorism Database (GTD).     

Tacit support for terrorism: The rapprochement between the USSR and Palestinian guerrilla organizations following the 1967 war

This article demonstrates the inconsistent and wavering Soviet attitude towards national liberation movements in general and the Palestinian organizations in particular. Until the late 1960s, the Soviets viewed these organizations with suspicion, hesitating to engage in political dialogue with them. However, in the 1970s, political and military events in the region, as well as modifications in the Kremlin's Cold War strategies, led to a general shift towards the Middle East in Soviet foreign policy. Soviet leaders showed increased willingness to provide certain Palestinian organizations with arms with which to conduct terrorist activities against Israeli, pro-Israeli, Jewish and Western targets. The article explores the complex relations between Palestinian organizations and the USSR in the field of international terror. The study also exposes and analyzes the nature and content of Soviet–Palestinian arms dialogues and transactions. It provides clear evidence that Soviet policymakers and other luminaries were fully informed of, and sometimes directly involved in, these transactions and dialogues at the highest levels.     

A1 Qaeda and the radical Islamic challenge to western strategy

The September 11 global crisis prompted by the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon raises major questions concerning the nature and trajectory of terrorism in the post-Cold War global order. Hitherto, terrorism has been largely debated by analysts at the level of nation states. Terrorist and insurgent movements have also been largely anchored in nationalist and ethnic power bases even when they have sought to mobilise a transnational ideological appeal on religious or class grounds. There have been a few exceptions to this pattern such as the alliance between the German Baader-Meinhof group and the Japanese Red Army Faction, but even such international alliances as this did not, until at least the 1980s, presage anything like a global terrorist network necessitating a global strategic response. This study examines terrorism and global strategic responses.

Helping hands: external support for the KNU insurgency in Burma

This article analyses to what extent the Burmese KNU insurgency made use of external support from states, refugees, and diasporas. Based on extensive fieldwork it is concluded that support from neighbouring states and refugees has for years kept the Karen rebellion alive. Western countries perceived forms of resistance to the illegitimate Burmese regime as just and have therefore played a crucial role in the continuation of conflict in Karen State. It is important that policymakers and donors as well as executing organizations continue to reflect critically on the way they exercise their work.

Panjwai: a tale of two COINs in Afghanistan

The US Army has two approaches to counterinsurgency operations in Afghanistan. One is hard, or combat-focused, and the other is soft, or development-focused. This study examines two US Army task forces deployed to Panjwai District, Afghanistan from 2012 to 2013. CTF 4-9 and 1-38 offer a meaningful comparison because they pursued these contrasting approaches among the same population and against the same enemy at the same time and place. The study compares each unit’s approach and finds that neither approach was successful absent the other. The article concludes by recommending further research into combining the approaches at the operational level.
