OEF Philippines Case Study, via the U.S. Army Counterinsurgency Center Newsletter: “On 17 November the COIN Center released an insightful case study in counterinsurgency and design written by Dr. Richard Swain (contracted to the COIN Center) on OEF Philippines. Deploying U.S. forces may use this study both for analytical and instructional purposes. The study exposes the reader to a real-world (and on-going) event and allows an examination of the event as it unfolds. Students can apply existing doctrine to judge whether doctrine was applied correctly, whether that doctrine is adequate, and develop alternative solutions to an existing problem. Dr. Swain’s study is very relevant to Army’s current approach to operations.”
