The Online War College
"War is a matter of vital importance to the State; for the field of battle is the place of life and death and war the road to survival or ruin. It is mandatory that it be thoroughly studied."
-- Sun Tzu, The Art of War
Welcome to the Online War College, a source of information for armchair generals and military enthusiasts everywhere. Many sites contain technical information on weapons platforms - you can find the differences between a MiG-29K and MiG-29M in moments using any search engine.
However, there are relatively few sites out there that give good, reliable information on just how these weapons of war function. You can know all about the T-80UM, but the knowledge is baseless if you don't know about the Soviet ground warfare doctrine that T-80-operating countries would most likely use.
That's what the Online War College is all about. Here, you will find solid information on just how modern war is fought. There are three major sections: Air Warfare, Ground Warfare, and Naval Warfare. Each section has literally dozens of lessons, split into beginner, intermediate, and advanced categories.
For those of you who already know the tactics and strategies of war, this site may not help you too much. The Online War College focuses on giving general information that will help the people understand how wars are generally fought. This knowledge will help them understand current events, among other things. In at least one case, the Online War College has helped a Tom Clancy fan really understand what he was reading!
This site is brand-new and constantly under construction, so check back often for new lessons, links, articles, and more.
