The Dale Center for the Study of War & Society at the University of Southern Mississippi serves as a local, national, and international resource for the study of the history of warfare and its influence on both combatants and civilians. Throughout the year, the Dale Center hosts several events that promote and enhance our understanding of military history and how past armed conflicts influenced the societies surrounding them. Dale Center events include the Lt. Col. John H. Dale Sr. Distinguished Lecture Series in International Security and Global Policy, the Richard McCarthy Lecture Series, and the War & Society Roundtable, among others.
In an effort to share these events with a greater audience, especially those who are unable to attend in person, the Dale Center for the Study of War & Society RU-vid channel will be updated with videos featuring lectures and presentations from our various events. Please subscribe to our channel or check back regularly to see what is new!.
As a younger Signals Officer, I was informed of The Three Main Bodies of Knowledge required for every aspiring Canadian Officer. First, there is the knowledge that you know that you know. Second, there is that body of knowledge that you know about but have not mastered yet: that body of knowledge that you know you do not know. The third, and most sombre body of knowledge is that area that you do not know about yet or that body of knowledge that "you don't know that you don't know". Crazy introductuon for certain.

And I would also love to see a movie about her. Without any Hollywood influence of a feminist being oppressed. Just show her as she really is, no BS and didn't hate men.
The audiences in American academic lecture appear to have no respect for others in the audience let alone those presenting the lecture. The amount of extraneous noise is appallingly rude.
Pham Xuan An was awarded with the medal of "Hero of the People's Armed Force". His identity is covered so great that even after the liberation of Saigon, no one ever knew he was a spy even the one who served in south vietnam. People only know that he is a spy only when he receive the medal of "Hero of the People's Armed Force". Another spy was awarded with this medal is Major Pham Ngoc Thao, known as Albert Thao in south vietnam. He is a major both in Vietnam People's Army and south vietnam army. But unluckily, he was compromised and executed in 1965 by south vietnam. His true identity only reveiled in 1995, 30 years after his death in order to protect his family now living in united states, as remnant of the south vietnam still try to harm or even kill those who worked for or with SRVN or those who reveal true meaning of south vietnam remnant. One of the victim is Nguyen Dam Phong journalist
@@killercd7682 Let's phrase it differently: China, Mongolia and France just happened to wander out of Vietnam. Happy? But you're right in that one can't assume that little Vietnam would win every time, and the lecture is worth watching. Also - why does the Dale Center employ a random guy with a phone to video all its lectures?
As we say in the military, clever enough to shoot, infantry, clever enough to use a shovel, pioneer corps, too stupid to use a shovel, you're a Physical training insructor. But my daddy knows The Queen, you can't make me a PTI Why didn't you say earlier, youre off to Sandhurst.
Yes, there was still a war to be fought. Unfortunately also a lot of "professional officers" who would fight it because they were qualified for little else and they didn't get paid to think about world grand strategic planning. The dark side of civilian control of the military.
Iam not sure why we stopped starving out encircled forces,(popular in the middle ages). I suppose it's the time factor. Those seige troops waiting out the fortress garrison could be used better elsewhere.
One thing I have learned about this war is not to believe anything without corroboration and evidence. Although South Viet Nan and the the North and the US all portray themselves as saintly, deception and illustrative bias are part of the battle and it is for the most part, manufactured by governments and media outlets. The general public is not privy to the real situation and most people do not connect changes in their economy and national stature as the real consequences of war.
There is an active conspiracy in which the mic that Citino is set use is sabotaged immediately before he gives a lecture. Either rhat or RU-vids audio dept has a vendetta against him.
The 'pro-war" historians need to deal with the fact that the PVN and and the NLF suffered 90% fatalities, and yet they were always able to recruit new men and women to fight for the Hanoi government. U.S. military analysts concluded that it was not possible for American soldiers to defeat such fanatics. This analysis played a substantial role in the decision to withdraw from Vietnam.
The German Russian conflict during WW2 is the most intriguing battle in humanities history being that the technologies at the time managed to produce the Panzer and the T34. That said I dare say the soldiers who gave their lives in those crucial battles will be disgusted in the direction the world is headed. Plandemic treaty.CBDC.Lockdowns caused by the flue,and a small group of mega rich billionaire pushing to usurp every government on earth.
I also think that one major reason why Germany couldnt surrender in 1943 was due to the atrocities that they had done at the eastern front from the start of the war. The killing, pillaging and raping of the civilian population at the eastern front had been so terrible and the cost of human suffering so high that I dont think there was even a chance of anything else than unconditional surrender from the perspective of Stalin and the people of Soviet Union.
I know he was hot but I don’t like his style in this book. Generalizations omissions and interpretation after the events that fall as trite condescending and one sided. The Germans were between by superior force applied correctly. The German way did not fail but was perfected by the Russians at the strategic and operational level of war his books would be better without using over used phrases.
As a Texican, l have never understood why these historians insist calling both Wars a revolution and a civil war. The fight against King George lll and his Lobsterbacks wasn't a revolution at all.For the Colonists didn't want to overthrow the government of Great Britain. Also, the Confederacy wasn't formed to overthrow the U.S. government. So why call it a Civil War. As President Jefferson Davis stated, "We just want to be left alone". Enough said! DEO VINDICE
Huh? This guy does not know what he is talking about ! He stands up there telling lies to his students about how as he says ," the hippies were the last ones to be against the war," So called Hippies dropped out of society so that they would not be contributing to a corrupt war and and an even more corrupt political system that put so called governments in place throughout the world for the benefit of its corporate managerial economy.. He does not bother to mention any of his sources for his statements, he just vomits forth his opinions. My question is was his lecture peer reviewed by a group of academic peers? Academic peer review is a mainstay of presenting contraversial topics in education.. This Wiest guy is an opinion searching for people to go along with his vastly overly simplified and therefor patently wrong conclusions about he Vietnamese War. Good luck genius and get an education.

Cleburne: "Maybe we should let black men be soldiers and give freedom only to them." (So like 100,000 out of 4 million.) Jeff Davis: "WHAT IS THIS HIPPIE SHIT?!!" Lost causers today: "Umm yeah, this black dude in the photo carrying all the white guy's stuff was a soldier."
I also do not wrestle with slavery because I am not a deranged Western headcase who fears a certain group like a man would fear a god, or offers foodstamps and special loans like a man would offer them to a god. Free yourselves Americans, become mongols become persians become free from the ex slaves who now are your masters.
Non assuming humble man that has done great things. I remember seeing him interviewed on CNN while the battle field in Iraq. I enjoy the way he speaks. He comes from a long line military accomplishees.
