Historical: President Monroe issued a doctrine in front of congress back in 1823 in regard to the rumors of a Franco –Spanish action that would rebuild/restore the Spanish empire in the New World. Brittan thought that they United States should join them in a joint policy to oppose the international intervention in America. Thomas Jefferson and James Madison we of the opinion that President Monroe should join Brittan how ever his secretary of state at the time John Quincy Adams suggested to him that it would be wiser to give a unilateral statement letting the United States intentions/ interests in the America’s be known. The interests would be great and any outside intervention would bring forth military actions. (A) Current: On Thursday August 27, 2009 a discussion called 'The Future of the U.S. Army: Options for Force Modernization' Three speakers were there speaking , Center for National Policy Vice President Scott Bates, Lt. General and Lawrence Korb.The speakers spoke of the U.S. armed forced and the challenges it faces. The speakers spoke of the way the Army and the reserves are spaced out between tow wars They went on to discuss how adding more troops has stretched the budget and the training. They spoke of how the army had to lower its standards to have enough troops and how they are now facing discipline problems. " Both speakers identified the lack of a coherent national security strategy as the most significant short term challenge for Army modernization. General Yakovac reminded the audience that modernization is about much more than just equipment; it also includes changes in training, doctrine, leadership development and organizational structure. Without a clearly articulated strategy, or at least an idea about what the Army is expected to do in the future and what wars will likely look like, focused discussion on modernization is difficult."
