Somewhere from the late 80s to mid 90s we became the Russians.

We went from a commander-centric execution/end-state focused organization to a staff-focused planning centric one.

We even publish it two FM now as oppoed to one.

Orders and the "Orders Process" grew. So staffs grew, so more annexes could be written/published etc.

Brigade level and below should be able to crank-out an robust FRAGO in 2 hours or less. Companies should be able to issue their orders within an hour of getting theirs from higher and it should never be longer then 30 munites. Oral only at company level.
