is on the street for staffing. I've been told it has a really short turnaround. That's what usually happens when the proponents or authors don't want changes, IOW, they're stacking the deck on some items in the FM.

Seems to me it would be quite useful for the FM 7.0 authors and the Army if there were a discussion of the manual and of what's needed to prepare for war in the current operating environment.

I'm trying to locate a copy...
