Episode notes
Forgotten Acquisition
- Jocko couldn't recall when or how he acquired the books "About Face" and "The Last Hundred Yards".
- They became deeply ingrained in his thinking over time.
Maneuver Warfare vs. Attrition Warfare
- Maneuver warfare prioritizes flexibility and initiative, using firepower to support movement.
- Decentralized command empowers subunits to react to local threats without rigid oversight.
Solicit Advice
- Involve NCOs and junior leaders in tactical decisions for better outcomes. Soliciting advice improves decisions and execution, outweighing any perceived insecurity.
