This chapter presents an interpretive survey of the literature on the defense policy of the Ford administration. It considers major actors in the executive branch, congressional positions and policies, international crises, civil‐military relations, and the perspective of the armed services. The chapter concludes that the specialized literature on Ford and the armed forces remains primarily focused on détente, arms control, and the Mayaguez crisis, but that a wider reading in Cold War and military histories allows for tentative conclusions about the vision, intent, and implementation of policy and strategy in the mid‐1970s.
