The growth of NATO, which now includes the newly independent states of the former Soviet Bloc, raises attention to the history of military planning and operations, particularly in coalition setting. Coalition strategy and operations was precisely the main subject of an unique, highly secret and Soviet-led military-theoretical journal known colloquially as “ShOVS” – the Information Herald of the Staff of the Unified Armed Forces of the Warsaw Pact Member-States.
This Russian language journal was published biannually during the last two decades of the Warsaw Pact’s existence until it ceased publication in 1990 with the dissolution of the Warsaw Pact itself.
