The 1999 National Military Strategy document…

“It is imperative that our Joint Forces also enhance

their ability to operate in consonance with other US

government agencies, and with Non-governmental

Organizations (NGOs), International Organizations

(IOs), and Private Voluntary Organizations (PVOs)

in a variety of settings. The specialized access and

knowledge these organizations possess can

facilitate prompt, efficient action to prevent conflict,

resolve a crisis, mitigate suffering, and restore civil

government…”

Haiti – A Case StudyNational Defense University, 1996

“The military were actually the last players to arrive on the scene, not the first…”

Presidential Decision Directive #56(on managing complex contingencies)

“The US government is one player among many…”

Sometimes, the best information comes from outside the US military.
