Unfortunately, the existence of command, control, communications, and intelligence (C3I) structures, mechanisms, systems, and capabilities does not guarantee success. Major Orr attacks the basic problem of producing a conceptual model of the combat operations process.

The valid competition would be to improve on the ideal (vision/model), and to find better ways of achieving this ideal, instead of competing for advantage over others to the detriment of the whole, as has the prevalent practice been till now. There would, eventually, cease any need for "leaders" and "followers"-- everyone would have the potential to take a part in embodying their own ideas (in concert with the wishes for an ideal existence of all others) in the con...

Drumul pâna la aeroport e strangulat, lânga Los Lunas, de un accident... un truck are cabina turtita, vreo 4-5 masini de politie cu becurile semnalând, un elicopter învârtindu-se pe deasupra...

Rozwijając hipotezę Turchina nie można wykluczyć, że ta nowa ponadosobnicza inteligencja będzie dysponowała jakąś formą świadomości i m...
