General Douglas MacArthur Military Leadership Writing Competition

During each session of the Intermediate Level Education Course, the Command and General Staff College holds the General Douglas MacArthur Military Leadership Writing Competition. Students author and submit papers on various leadership topics. Winning papers are selected by a panel of judges and are evaluated on originality, scholarship, writing style and value to the profession. As part of our mission to promote scholarship and add to the professional discourse, the Combat Studies Institute is pleased to publish this selection of award winning papers written by students from the Command and General Staff College classes 12-01 and 12-02 for the Academic Year 2012 General Douglas MacArthur Military Leadership Writing Competition.
