Summary
"As coalition operations again become commonplace in military affairs, this Whitehall Report examines the challenges of coalition command in contemporary operations. Winston Churchill famously observed that 'there is only one thing worse than fighting with allies, and that is fighting without them'. Overcoming the challenges inherent in the multinational dimension of their commands has always been a hallmark of successful coalition commanders. So with coalition operations again becoming commonplace in military affairs, it is apposite to examine the challenges of coalition command in contemporary operations. This Whitehall Report will begin by placing contemporary coalition command in context by noting some significant changes in the operating environment of armed forces since the end of the Cold War, before arguing that these have, in turn, impacted significantly on the challenges facing coalition commanders and the attributes and skills development required for success in such a role."--RUSI web site.
