Just read "This kind of War" and found an chapter 25 'Brave Legions' a similar - but differrent - take on this. His look is more from the professional vs. citizen soldier make up of the army, but may explain the dynamic I was trying to get at, at least as refers to the Military itsself.
The society that separates its scholars from its warriors will have its thinking done by cowards and its fighting by fools.

Leadership is motivating hostile subordinates to execute a superior's wish you don't agree with given inadequate resources and insufficient time while your peers interfere.

A scrimmage in a Border Station
A canter down some dark defile
Two thousand pounds of education
Drops to a ten-rupee jezail
