Read Frederick Otto Meksche's books on the subject. They are very interesting, but his concepts are too involved to summarize here. One book is on the problems with atomic weapons in tactical usage and that the US division is overly large depending on too many support troops in the rear without enough front line troops to be effective. The other book is on the problems of atomic weapons in strategic usage. One may or may not agree with his ideas but either way they are interesting and easy to read.
