In The Sexual Economy of War, Andrew Byers argues that in the early twentieth century, concerns about unregulated sexuality affected every aspect of how the US Army conducted military operations. Far from being an exercise marginal to the institution and its scope of operations, governing sexuality was, in fact, integral to the military experience during a time of two global conflicts and numerous other army deployments. In this revealing study, Byers shows that none of the issues related to current debates about gender, sex, and the military—the inclusion of LGBTQ soldiers, sexual harassment and violence, the integration of women—is new at all. Framing the American story within an international context, he looks at case studies from the continental United States, Hawaii, the Philippines, France, and Germany. Drawing on internal army policy documents, soldiers' personal papers, and disciplinary records used in criminal investigations, The Sexual Economy of War illuminates how the US Army used official policy, legal enforcement, indoctrination, and military culture to govern wayward sexual behaviors. Such regulation, and its active opposition, leads Byers to conclude that the tension between organizational control and individual agency has deep and tangled historical roots.

As the sun dipped below the horizon, casting a golden glow over the tranquil seas, Sarah and Mark stood hand in hand on the deck of the small, charming boat that was to be their home for the next week. Their honeymoon had begun, a journey not just across the shimmering waters of the Mediterranean, but into a new chapter of their lives together. Sarah's heart fluttered with a mixture of excitement and nerves. She glanced at Mark, his eyes reflecting the hues of the sunset, and felt a surge of affection. He squeezed her hand, his touch reassuring. "It's just us and the open sea," he said, his voice brimming with anticipation. The boat, a beautiful vessel with white sails and a polished wooden deck, was their own little world, a haven where they could escape from the rest of the universe. They had both longed for this moment, the opportunity to just be together, away from the demands of their busy lives.
