Deep in the Louisiana woods, the U.S. Army's "Ghost" unit showed that doing the basics well can still turn the tide. Defense One: link

We live in the far future when "old school" means they have ATVs, android phones, and only primitive drones.

Very interesting article. Brings back some memories … e.g. Polk[now Johnson] sucked ! If you look at e.g. the Ranger Handbook. If you are a student of history, you can see where some of tactics, techniques, etc. were lessons learned from past conflicts. I don't know if it is the same today. I hope so … Of course, as we know, to paraphrase Sun Tzu, "Warfare is all deception."…

I have been assured by both of my sons that JRTC still sucks regardless of time and the tactics in vogue.

I'm sure they are correct ! I liked Panama much better than Polk/Johnson !
