Current Army doctrine lacks a security metrics paradigm similar to the infrastructure paradigm SWEAT-MSO. Because of this, commanders, staff, subordinates, other government leaders, and the media lack a simple and common set of terms to use when communicating an assessment of security in a counterinsurgency environment. This thesis examines the history of the use of counterinsurgency metrics for security. It examines one successful counterinsurgency, United Kingdom in Malaya, 1948-1960; one unsuccessful counterinsurgency, France in Algeria, 1954-1962; and one ongoing counterinsurgency, Allied Elements in Iraq, 2003-Present. This research examines each of these regarding two lenses: systems analysis and tipping points. The successful metrics used in these counterinsurgencies are summarized in the security incident chronology acronym SLTWCT 'slitwick-tee' (Security Incidents, Local Security Force Organization, Tips and Reports, Warrants, Captures and Sensitive Site Exploitation, and Trials).This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
