One aspect of war is often overlooked: how much do wars cost and how are they funded? This book reveals U.S. Federal spending for the two extended conflicts of the Cold War era, Korea and Vietnam, and compares them with the global 'War on Terror', including current outlays for Iraq and Afghanistan. It also provides wartime cases that offer recommendations on how to pay for future wars and focuses on the length of the "tails" of such spending, which are often omitted in the final analyses and distort funding estimates. Background chapters examine financing and budget issues as well as problems associated with defining the real cost of Korea, Vietnam, and the so-called "long war" against terrorism, and are complemented by an assessment of the open-ended commitment to support homeland defence and conduct on-going military operations in the Middle East.
