I stumbled across this paper while doing research for my own research paper. It's a report on the effectiveness of the Community Action Program during the Vietnam War and it's potential use in future counter-insurgency operations. Apparently it was written by a major in the United States Marine Corps, Michael Duane Welsch.

Anyway, I thought it was pretty interesting and thought I'd share it with you guys: http://www.dtic.mil/get-tr-doc/pdf?A...c=GetTRDoc.pdf
