520 | _aDeals specifically with the role of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff in planning and directing operations in Somalia between 1992 and 1994. The book provides background on the situation that led to the need for large scale humanitarian relief in Somalia, then goes on to discuss the UN Operation in Somalia (UNOSOM) and the US led Unified Task Force (UNITAF). The intertwined need for both humanitarian aid and peace enforcement, the complexity of command structures, and shifting objectives all contributed to the difficulty of achieving success. | ||
