N2  - Assesses the likely effects of of the recent change in U.S. military doctrine which has elevated stability and support operations (SASO) to be at the same level as traditional combat missions of offense and defense. The new requirement will apply equally in peacetime and in war, and includes civilians. This article considers historical background to the concept, shows how SASO is seen to be increasingly relevant in post Cold War conflicts, and considers different views on the relevance and effect of SASO on the U.S. military
