The Long-Term Implications of Current Defense Plans
What are the long-term implications of the Bush Administration's plans for defense? What level of resources might be needed to execute those plans? If they were carried out, what would the Administration's plans imply about the size, composition, and age of future U.S. military forces? This study addresses those questions.

Review of Department of Defense Test Protocols for Combat Helmets
Combat helmets have evolved considerably over the years from those used in World War I to today's Advanced Combat Helmet. One of the key advances was the development of aramid fibers in the 1960s, which led to today's Kevlar-based helmets. The Department of Defense is continuing to invest in research to improve helmet performance, through better design and materials as well as better manufacturing processes. Review of the Department of Defense Test Protocols for Combat Helmets considers the technical issues relating to test protocols for military combat helmets.

Growth in Medical Spending by the Department of Defense
From FY 1988 to 2003, the Dept. of Defense's (DoD's) spending on medical care almost doubled in real terms. That growth occurred despite large reductions in the size of the active-duty military force & a substantial reduction in the size of the military's own hospital system. This study examines the reasons for those increases & considers directions for the future. Already, DoD's total spending on health care is more than half as large as its cash compensation. Looking forward, this analysis examines how overall growth of health care costs in the economy could affect DoD's health care costs through 2020, as well as how changes in benefits could do so. This study makes no recommendations. Charts, tables & graphs.
