Thanks to Dr. @Erikhistorian for research early on, @Mother_of_Tanks for editing support throughout, and @GregoryDaddis for insight, particularly into the Pentomic period. The @TheWTFNation leadership provided support to this project, particularly regarding chapter 7.

The period from 1953 to 1961 holds lessons about the psychology of power and the changing nature of global security. Many of those ideas were discussed at length by the #MilTwitter community in response to each #AtomicAgeArmy chapter.

Welcome back! We’re going to start with a little recap because we know some of this (or all of it) is new material for much of our audience and we want to make it easier to enjoy.

We’ve talked about the Army adopting the Pentomic concept in the late 1950s. The term “Pentomic Division” was used to represent the new structure, containing five subordinate units, with the purpose of maintaining functionality across domains.

Before you proceed any further, this chapter is the ultimate in Army nerd history. If you’re not interested in diving deep into Army structure, we understand if you want to sit this one out.

#TuesdayTrivia time!!! We're going early due to our #AtomicAgeArmy novel. We're back to 9AM for next week's question. Today we release Chapter 13: Valor Endures in which we discuss the ROAD restructuring in 1981. Question: why were there no designated "J" companies under ROAD?
Correction: *1961...Not 1981
I don't remember who asked about our favorite Army recruiting poster, but this is it. #AtomicAgeArmy
Ok, we're going to extend #AskMeAnything for another 5 minutes. Now, for the next 5 minutes, we'll answer any question using only a Gif.....go
We are genuinely loving all the positive feedback everyone is giving our #AtomicAgeArmy series this week. I mean, we posted a 100-tweet thread today and you’re all still here demanding more!
Well, you asked and we’re responding — we have enough material for another 5 or 6 chapters!
BUT we’ve also had Twitter difficulties for two days, which we know in our hearts has nothing to do with celebrity accounts or Bitcoin — our #AtomicAgeArmy threads are just too powerful for the platform.
