Eisenhower's military policy was shaped by nuclear technology. Due to the concept of M.A.D. (Mutually Assured Destruction, though I am not sure if that term was in use during his administration), nuclear weapons became the focus of national defense. So the US shifted from a large standing army to a smaller one with emphasis on intelligence gathering, espionage, and large stockpile of nuclear weapons.

How did the policy of executive agreement reach a new level under US President William McKinley?
Executive agreements continue to be used to shape US foreign policy. In 1900, US President William McKinley used this policy when committing US armed forces. In 1900, he set the tone of US foreign policy by sending 5,000 troops to China. The excuse for this action was that American lives and property were in danger. US troops joined with other imperialists to end the Boxer Rebellion. The Chinese government actually declared war on the US. The US did not return the favor. The major factor there was that US military action was that Congress was never even consulted.

What shaped the policy of the US toward the Soviet Union?
The Soviet Union was a ruthless expansionist empire, as shown both by its actions, in overrunning Eastern Europe, and its statements, such as, most famously, that of Nikita Kruschev who said "we will bury you" in a UN speech (not very diplomatic of him). The USSR was also very heavily armed with both conventional and nuclear weapons. As a result, US policy was shaped by fear.
