Using contractors on the battlefield is not new for the U.S. What's more, it's a good option and it's here to stay, says Carafano. "For the U.S. it is a way of leveraging the capabilities of the modern world efficiently."

This is one of a series of four interviews that took place at the 2009 McCain Conference, held at the Stockdale Center for Ethical Leadership, U.S. Naval Academy.
