Military TransformationEnds,Ways, and MeansDR. JACK D. KEM, COLONEL, USA, RETIREDEditorial Abstract: True transformation in a military organization goes far beyond justmaking adjustments, “rightsizing,” altering methods of mission accomplishment, or reengineering.Dr. Kem argues that a unit attains transformation only when its ultimatepurpose for existence changes. The final outcome for the US military could extend beyondfighting our nation’s wars, conceivably enabling peace and stability to obviate combat.And be not fashioned according to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of yourmind, and ye may prove what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God.—Romans 12:2 (American Standard Version)85
