| Tirones | Post; Famous QuotesI kept three quotes above my desk the first two were anonymous but credible, the last is facetious but is a testament to the survivability of a plan after crossing the LD "The reason the American Army does so well in wartime is that war is chaos, and the American Army practices chaos on a daily basis." A German General Officer "One of the serious problems in planning against American Doctrine is that the Americans do not read their manuals nor do they feel any obligation to follow their doctrine." From a Russian Document "If we don't know what the hell we are doing, the enemy can't possibly anticipate our next move." 1st Cavalry Division TACSOP |
