"In the 38th Commandant of the Marine Corps Planning Guidance, the Commandant writes, "wargaming needs to be used more broadly to fill what is arguably our greatest deficiency in the training and education of leaders: practice in decision making against a thinking enemy." Recently, the 22nd Marine Expeditionary Unit attempted to do just this by incorporating history based wargaming into the unit's already existing reading and PME program…."

For the past several months 22nd MEU staff has been reading and discussing the book "Guadalcanal" by Richard Frank. The purpose of this particular PME was to improve the MEU staff's understanding and appreciation for multi-domain operations, and the single naval battle concept. Guadalcanal was seen as an ideal case study in both of these areas while also providing an opportunity to study a critical chapter in Marine Corps history. While the reading and discussion portion of this PME was in progress, the unit decided to try and incorporate wargaming into the learning continuum.
