摘要:The GEN George C. Marshall "Inter- views and Reminiscences," pub- lished in 1991 by the George C. Marshall Foundation, provides an abundance of sage observations concerning the need for an Army, the building of an Army, and the challenges of coping with the political and economic influences on those requirements. Marshall's lifetime of service from World War I until the late 1950s i s without paral lel in our history. He completed a remarkable military career and followed it with years of civilian leadership in both the Defense and State departments. H is views deserve respect and considera- tion, especially today as we consider our national strategy and the commit- ment of programs and resources to our future requirements. The following as- pects of Marshall's work are germane to our current situation.
