Colonel (Retired) John Antal joins Lieutenant Colonel (LTC) Lisa Becker (host) in a two-part series about the current operational environment and how that nests with the imperatives found in FM 3-0. Truly a Soldier for Life, COL(R) Antal discusses his ongoing research into current conflicts and how he uncovered ten battlefield disrupters. LTC Becker then poses how these three imperatives nest with his work:

See yourself, see the enemy, and understand the operational environment.

- Account for being under constant observation and all forms of enemy contact.

- Make initial contact with the smallest element possible.
