Student paper by Col. A. D. Gomez, USMC for the course in naval warfare at the Naval War College. This paper deals with the implications of space on naval strategy and represents an attempt to analyze potential military effects of space systems on naval strategy and operations with emphasis on different types of satellites.

Advanced Research Project paper examining disciplinary actions against senior military officers through the cases of ADM Kimmel and MAJ Gen Short, commanding officers at Pearl Harbor in 1941, and CAPT McVay Commanding Officer of the USS Indianpolis. This paper demonstrates that each action taken with respect to the three commanders was fully consistent with law and should be upheld to support and preserve the greater principle of civilian control of the military.

Thesis written by Colonel William Plaskett, Jr., USMC while a student at the Naval War College and later submitted to the School of Public and International Affairs of the George Washington University in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in International Affairs on 1971 Sep 30.

In this paper, Plaskett provided a general study of the overseas Chinese problem in southeast Asia and presented cultural, legal, and historic background data to form a basis for comparison of the impact of the Cultural Revolution in mainlaind China had on the assimilation and nationalization of the overseas Chinese in southeast Asia.

Student paper prepared by Lt. Col. Frank W. Rhea, United States Army for the Naval Warfare Course at the U.S. Naval War College. In this paper, Rhea explored the social, economic and military importance of transportation in China.

Student paper by Commander James H. Scott for his course in the School of Naval Warfare at the Naval War College. In this paper the high resignation rate among carrier aviators was addressed.

A paper submitted to the faculty of the Naval War College in partial satisfaction of the requirement of the Department of Operations by William G. Clapp, Ed.D, Major, Utah National Guard that was later updated for publication as a Strategic Research Department occasional paper because of the timeliness of the topic and the belief that it deserved wider circulation.

In this paper, Clapp provided an overview of the space environment and its assets in order to understand their capabilities. Clapp argued that space assets are vital elements that influence both peacetime and wartime missions at all three levels of military activity: strategic, operational, and tactical. This paper provided insights concerning a few of the limitations and capabilities of U.S. space assets and should help the war fighter understand the environment in which the battle for aerospace superiority must be fought and won.

A longer version of this paper was originally submitted to the faculty of the Naval War College in partial satisfaction of the requirements for an Advanced Research Program elective William G. Clapp, Ed.D, Major, Utah National Guard that was later updated for publication as a Strategic Research Department occasional paper. In this paper, Clapp described how the U.S. space launch program no longer dominated the world and was instead playing catch-up with the world's first commercial launch company, Arianespace. He suggested that a healthy U.S. space launch program could provide considerable economic advantages and is essential to assure continued low-cost military access to space, but that the space policy in the 1990s prohibited development of new launch vehicles and limited the Department of Defense to only upgrades of existing launch vehicles as well as a declining DoD budget. He also identified Arianespace's advantages and offered low-cost recommendations for countering them that would help the U.S. once again dominate the world commercial launch market and ensure affordable military access to space.

Student paper written by CDR T. R. Wheaton, USN as part of Naval Warfare Class of June 1958. In this paper, Wheaton discussed the basic characteristics of space satellites, the potential development of satellites, and the implications of the potential of space satellites on weapon systems concepts.

A student paper by Lieutenant Colonel Wayland W. Williams for the course in naval warfare at the Naval War College in which he discussed how the destiny of nations have historically been shaped by the application of science and technology to the revolutional military capabilities with space capabilities being the most recent product. The impact on international affairs of man/machine in space and the potential of a nation's space capabilities to provide new tools of political and military strength are discussed and a comparison of the space accomplishments of both the U.S. and Soviet Union is also presented.
