Abstract:: J. Anthony Holmes ("Where Are the Civilians?" January/February 2009) makes a number of persuasive points concerning the military's domination of U.S. foreign policy.

They are ambitious enough to make rapid implementation hard work, but they are probably only the minimum necessary to meet today's requirements.
