This one might be worth skipping. I swear to the good Lord above. Marine Officers no longer speak plainly. It's like they all get hit with the same damn virus at the same damn time. Next this bubba is talking philosophy. Are you shitting me! This is a quote from his article.
Maneuver warfare is by no means dead. Its critics have missed the point that maneuver warfare is a philosophy, not a doctrine. Maneuver transcends the other forms of warfare. It centers on defeating the fighting spirit of the opponent through a unique combination of methods designed for the situation at hand.
So we no longer defeat the enemy by fire and maneuver. NO! We defeat the enemy's spirit by maneuver.
These are the people and the thinking that will defeat the Chinese? God save us!
