A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Excerpt from Estimating Tactical Situations and Composing Field Orders

In our service we have come to use the term "Estimate of the Situation" to express that logical process of thought which, applied to a concrete tactical problem, enables one to arrive at a definite tactical dicision. An estimate of the situation is valueless unless it reaches its logical termination in a decision upon a suitable plan of action. Similarly the decision is of little value unless conveyed, in the form of appropriate orders, to the subordinates charged with its execution.

On this subject our proposed Field Service Regulations state:

"To frame a suitable field order, the commander must make an estimate of the situation, culminating in a decision upon a definite plan of action. He must then actually draft or word the orders which will carry his decision into effect.

"An estimate of the situation involves a careful consideration, from the commander's viewpoint, of all the circumstances affecting the particular problem.
