WASHINGTON — As he prepares to hand over the reins of the Pentagon, Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel is warning that military power has its limits and Americans should avoid believing that force alone can transform conflict-riven societies in the Middle East and elsewhere. “It is easy to drift into other missions, and I do believe that you always have to ask the tough questions, [such as] what happens next?

Where do you want this to end up,” Hagel said in an interview with Stars and Stripes and Military Times. “Any secretary of defense has to always be on guard that we don’t inadvertently sometimes drift into a more accelerated use than we thought of what our military was going to be [doing] I think the two long wars that we were in the last 13 years is pretty clear evidence of how things can get out of control, and drift and wander.” Hagel’s warning came as the U.S. Military has returned to Iraq -- this time to help the Iraqi government defeat the Islamic State which has seized about a third of Iraq and Syria. Central Command is conducting an air campaign against the militants, and about 1,550 U.S.

Troops have been sent to Iraq to train and advise government and Kurdish peshmerga forces. Another 800 troops are providing force protection. President Barack Obama has ruled out using U.S. Combat troops to fight the insurgents and has placed a cap of 3,100 personnel on the number of U.S. Military forces deployed to Iraq. But some members of Congress have urged the U.S.

To play a more robust military role. Meanwhile, about 10,600 U.S.

Troops remain in Afghanistan to advise and assist Afghan forces even though the American combat role ended last month. Hagel’s caution about mission creep stems from his experience as a combat infantryman in Vietnam, where a U.S. Advisory role morphed into a long and divisive war involving at its height about a half million American servicemembers. “We’re products of our experiences, and we all come at our jobs being shaped by those experiences,” Hagel said. “The violence, the horrors, the suffering that I saw [in Vietnam] conditioned me. I saw the suffering of our own troops; I saw the suffering of the Vietnamese people; I saw terrible things, which war always produces.” Hagel said his own experience in Vietnam, where both he and his brother Tom were wounded, convinced him that “you cannot impose your will, you can’t impose your values, you can’t impose your standards, your institutions on other societies and other countries.

It has never worked; it never will work, as noble as you believe [the effort] is.” As a combat veteran and former VA official, Hagel is sensitive to the effects of open-ended military commitments on the force, including active duty members, their families and veterans. Since assuming the post in early 2013, Hagel has initiated institutional reforms and a number of reviews to try to get at some of the problems affecting the military community. He said he probably devoted as much time to these issues as anything else. But he remains worried about the health of the all-volunteer force after 13 years of counterinsurgency fighting, and thinks more work needs to be done.

Physical and mental health, suicide, morale, and sexual assault within the ranks are some of the major people issues that Hagel has tried to tackle during his tenure. At the same time, budget cuts, troop reductions and concern over pay and benefits have left the rank-and-file uncertain about their future. “Anytime there is uncertainty in an institution or a family you will have people off balance,” Hagel said.
