SWJ Briefs COIN Community
Yesterday, at the invitation of the USA / USMC Counterinsurgency Center, Small Wars Journal participated in their monthly online integration meeting. The purpose of these meetings is to update the counterinsurgency community of interest on the latest developments in COIN education and training across the force, coordinate actions between the field, schoolhouse, and centers and exchange best practices. Participants included organizations throughout the Department of Defense - CONUS and “in country”.
We were asked to address one question - how can SWJ assist the COIN community? This 8-slide brief outlines our thoughts on this subject.
you can say that again brother (rank amateur)...
and the bus that you got thrown under when the sacred cow survived, tenderized your hindquarters in addition to doing interesting things to your internal organs.
Note to self: Never say again in the earshot of the 101 AASLT CDR, that operational-level maneuver is a great thing, but the only thing dumber than a "true" air assault - was an opposed airborne operations :rolleyes:
hurts more when the bus moves back and forth - and then they switch drivers for more of the same :(
