handle is hein.journals/amdfcsad14 and id is 1 raw text is: Introduction The U.S. Constitution And National Defense: A Bicentennial Reappraisal GEORGE C. EDWARDS III U.S. Military Academy Texas A&M University WALLACE EARL WALKER U.S. Military Academy Guest Editors Two centuries ago the framers of the U.S. Constitution established the basic outline and features of government for the first new nation. Although much has changed in American society since the late eighteenth century, the essential features of the framers' constitutional design remain. Equally important, these characteristics of our political system continue to have a significant influence on both the process and substance of U.S. public policy. AUTHORS' NOTE: Our debts for this project are many. The Ford Foundation provided a grant that has made this symposium and our forthcoming book possible. Among those who contributed their insights and assistance, we are particularly grateful to the late Robert Osgood and to Mike Freeney, Tom McNaugher, Sam Sarkesian, B.G. Roy Flint, Jim Golden, George Osborn, Kim Flint, Bob Strati, Dave Phillips, Dick Norton, Don Rowe, and Kevin O'Brien. Each contributing author served as a source of enthusiasm and encouragement. Diane Hughes has faithfully typed and retyped uncounted manuscripts and letters. Finally, our thanks to the Johns Hopkins Univer- sity Press, which will publish an expanded version of this Journal issue, to be entitled National Security and the U.S. Constitution: A Bicentennial Reappraisal (forthcoming, 1988).
