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

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 … old fart

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 !
