The Urban Warfare Institute
February 5, 2025 Leave a comment
As I mentioned last summer, it was apparent that with the retirement of Brigadier General Wooldridge the 2024 serial of the 40th Infantry Division’s Urban Operations Planner Course would be the last one.
The Urban Warfare Institute has surfaced as “a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to advancing the study of urban environments, urban operations, and urban warfare”, offering research, education and advisory resources.
The principals are John Spencer, Liam Collins, Lionel Beehner and BG (ret) Wooldridge.
The resource pages, so far, seem to be collections of (mostly John Spencer’s) writings and articles on urban warfare and urban related issues from the Ukraine and Gaza conflicts, a lot of case studies, and pages on doctrine, research and games that were originally on the 40th Infantry Division’s webpage related to the Urban Ops Planner Course.
Go have a look! Lots of stuff there.
