博客來This monograph discusses the importance of recognizing the requirements within the moral domain during reconstitution efforts. This monograph examines those elements within this domain that a commander can influence. It shows the importance of reconstituting these elements as a means of sustaining combat effective units. The monograph first defines those elements that influence the moral domain, largely relying on the works of S.L.A. Marshall and Ardant du Picq. These elements are imposed into a paradigm, the ＂Well of Courage＂ to show their inter-relationships. Next, reconstitution efforts during three distinct periods of Americans at war --World War II, Korea and Vietnam --are examined to gain lessons learned in order to influence future considerations. Finally current Army doctrine is analyzed to determine if mutual agreement exists on reconstitution doctrine within the moral domain and if this doctrine is adequate. Finally, implications of current doctrine are discussed along with concerns when planning or executing future reconstitution missions within the moral domain. Included are the needs to instill individual confidence, foster collective confidence and trust with comrades, and establish a bonding of trust with unit leaders. The significant time requirements this demands is likewise discussed.
