Nuclear Deterrence in the 21st Century Lt Col Stearns-Boles is the Air Force Fellow at Los Alamos National Laboratory and a Senior Developmental Education student in the Air Force's Fellowship program assigned to Air University/CADRE. Key words: Nuclear deterrence Issue. The 2006 Quadrennial Defense Report (QDR) included a vision of tailored deterrence as a capability for enabling homeland defense. This verbiage, and the new deterrence doctrine it foreshadows, indicates a series of U.S. security policy changes regarding how the U.S. will handle its adversaries in the 21st century.
