The President of the United States promises to return servicemen and servicewomen back home from the war in the Middle East by 2011.

Downs, Donald Alexander; Murtazashvili, Ilia – Cambridge University Press, 2012
Alienation between the U.S. military and society has grown in recent decades. Such alienation is unhealthy, as it threatens both sufficient civilian control of the military and the long-standing ideal of the "citizen soldier." Nowhere is this issue more predominant than at many major universities, which began turning their backs on the…

Theokas, Christina – Education Trust, 2010
Many educators comfortably embrace the myth that the military will enlist any and all high school graduates who are interested. However, a new analysis from The Education Trust reports that too many of the nation's high school graduates have not been adequately prepared to serve in the U.S. Army. In "Shut Out of the Military," the…

Powell, Jonathan – Journal of Conflict Resolution, 2012
Previous studies have attested to leaders "coup-proofing" their regimes by reducing the ability or disposition of their armies to seek their removal.
