This monograph examines Colonel Bond’s writings and compares his principles of military engineering to the current Objective Force Proposals, which are centered around the concepts of assured mobility and embedded capabilities . The analysis attempts to reveal whether or not assured mobility is based upon sound historical and doctrinal foundations. Using this limited yet proven model the monograph highlights potential risks and shortfalls with the emerging doctrine and makes recommendations to minimize or correct them.
