Except perhaps that last item and that's mostly an opinion so there will always be variances on that -- though I'm inclined to agree with the caveat that I believe the operational bit to be a European construct, with some applicability in a tight, densely populated European setting and not much in other locales. North America for example, like Asia, is way too large and underpopulated for a great deal of applicability. Island territories or nations do not lend themselves to it nor really does warfare in a jungle setting. Not that any of that changes current US doctrine...

Hope the meal turns out better than you expect...
