The history about world was and the current Cold war has transformed because of the changes and improvement of US military in terms of equipment and also nuclear after 1945, where soldiers had significantly better experiences. The current US military performances and successes has proved that war experiences over the years promote better skills and advancement in technology for a quality military services. Introduction: US military successes following World War II include the decision to abolish enlistment and particularly during the Vietnam War, in the 1960's and '70s (Stavrids, 2021).1 A. Military conscription has arguably been the most significant shift in the recent half-century. B. During the 1960s and 1970s, the draft was a frequently discussed issue in American society due to the Vietnam War (Serafino, 2017). C. The transformation that include eliminating enlisting of US military and promote more of voluntary to services has improved the performance of the military over the years and the availability of modern equipment like advent of Abrams makes it deliver better (Stavrids, 2021). 2 A. There is little doubt that all-out battles, regardless of how disparate the capabilities of the competing parties or adversaries are in terms of human, economic, social and political losses, can be extremely costly. B. The war in Afghanistan and Iraq has been in existence for a long period of time but the nature of the war is dynamically changing (Bilal, 2021). C. The current status of the war is that Afghanistan and Iraq is using the hybrid warfare against the United States that include misinformation putting US in a tough position where the world judge the decisions made in the war resulting to recent US withdrawing their military from Afghanistan (Bilal, 2021). 3. Throughout the decades following World War II, the scientific and technological legacy of the conflict was profound and the main developed war technology is nuclear (Hindley, 2017). A. Nuclear technology from World War II was repurposed in the decades following the end of the war when it caused serious damage and deaths in Nagasaki and Hiroshima (Hindley, 2017). B. The wartime technology advances has transformed the world today including the US military contributing to their success because there are countries that have invested in nuclear but understand the damage it causes limiting the use of it. C. The US military successes is associated with better innovations and technology in different sectors including information and research that promote better emergencies and treatment during war injuries (Hindley, 2017). 4. Today, the US military benefits from radar, a meteorological technology developed during World War II and further developed to meet military weather requirements, which has boosted the military's ability to plan operations. A. There has been a rise in the usage of radar in the study of the weather (Hindley, 2017). During World War II, radar was first utilized in weather research. B. Forecasters were able to better comprehend and anticipate future weather conditions thanks in part to radar technology. C. By the 1950s, radar had established itself as a critical tool for meteorologists to monitor rainfall and storm systems, allowing them to better watch and prepare for daily weather changes helping their decisions to handle bush and land operations (Hindley, 2017). 5. As technology advances, the United States' military has shown an immense change and the continuity of warfare where more effort has moved to cybercrimes and demands for better skills for US military (Serafino, 2017). A. Multipurpose computers, developed since 1945 and used to combat cyber terrorism, have helped make the cyber force a resounding accomplishment (Serafino, 2017).B. Based on the changes and transformation, various training techniques has been introduced to meet the demands and this include the rifle combat tactics that is critical for US current military equipment and information technology training to meet cybersecurity aspects (Serafino, 2017). C. The technology advances is doing good for the US military in improving their quality of service delivery and handle the dynamic crime and terrorism activities in the globe. 6 A. Korean War of 1950-1953 and the influence of US military has resulted to the success of the US military in handling wars like being an allies of other states. B.

C. The struggle to stop communism spread forced US to counter. US military learned on ways of engaging with allies that would be beneficial during war by supporting peace missions to build friendship. In conclusion, the advancement of the technology in terms of information access, GPS for location purposes, training and having better combat gear and equipment led to the success of the US military after 1945. The US military had better experience after 1945 that was advancing and better results is achieved after every improvement. The advancement of technology and military experience are making the US military a better force handling more complex situations.
