Heuser, B. (1993) ‘Warsaw Pact Military Doctrines in the 70s and 80s: Findings in the East German Archives’. Comparative Strategy, 124. pp. 437-457.

Abstract/Summary

This article draws on Warsaw Treaty Organisation and East German military archives to demonstrate that the WTO's military exercises until the mid-1990s always envisaged an offensive strategy with the aim of reaching the Channel in a few days. Only gradually did this change under Gorbachev and to include also defensive strategies, very much against the opposition of East Germany.
