Abstract

Today there are many calls for other elements of the government to do more to 'do their part', assist the military to restore order and stability and 'win the peace' in Iraq and Afghanistan, and prepare for similar roles in future conflicts. The authors here instead briefly review the history of US armed forces' involvement in military governance operations from the Mexican War through World War II, and recommend the re-establishment of a School of Military Government similar to that created during the latter conflict.
