The Office of Strategic Services & The Future of SOF Joint Special Operations University report

Also a book https://amzn.to/4bgIEc3 This report from the Joint Special Operations University examines how the historical Office of Strategic Services (OSS) model can inform the future of U.S. Special Operations Forces (SOF). It analyzes key areas such as personnel selection, organizational structure, resource allocation, and legal authorities to identify improvements for modern unconventional warfare. The document highlights the importance of psychological assessments and diverse recruitment, drawing parallels between World War II methodologies and current CIA or SOF practices. Recommendations include seeking greater flexible funding, reducing bureaucratic oversight, and enhancing cultural and linguistic expertise within the force. Ultimately, the text argues that viewing USSOCOM as a strategic service rather than a traditional military branch would better enable it to manage global security threats.
