Yet we are still at war--no longer with other states, but with a host of new enemies, from nihilistic terrorists and narco-traffickers to transnational criminal cartels, lone wolf assassins, and modern-day pirates. Standing against these foes is a tight-knit fraternity of soldiers, cops, lawyers, and spies. Together, these men have broken down the cultural and institutional boundaries among their respective agencies to engineer a new, network-centric way of fighting: one that uses a seamless web of intelligence analysts, high-tech information networks, and Special Forces units to take the fight to America's enemies as never before. These disciplined, patriotic servicemen form a band of brothers that, over the past half century, has fundamentally reshaped the way America defends itself."--Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Strategic culture $z United States. 651 0 $a United States $x History, Military $y 21st century. 650 0 $a Intelligence service $z United States $x History $y 21st century. 650 0 $a Terrorism $z United States $x Prevention. 650 0 $a Special operations (Military science) $z United States $x History $y 21st century. 650 0 $a Interagency coordination $z United States. 651 0 $a United States $x Officers. $x Officers. 610 10 $a United States. $b Federal Bureau of Investigation $x Officials and employees. 650 0 $a National security $z United States. 650 0 $a Military art and science $z United States $x History $y 21st century. 941 $a 9 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20240702032459.0 952 $l GZPE631 $d 20240305013223.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231019021448.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20210828011330.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20181006101939.0 952 $l MXPG943 $d 20180720045300.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20170301012312.0 952 $l XSPE157 $d 20170224011148.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20161202014334.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=2EC78004A8C711E6ABDEA8C118183C5C 994 $a C0 $b IW3Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
