War Includes a Lot of Confusion

And a lot of assumptions.  This article, from Armed Forces Journal, "Lessons from Rhino LZ:  How the Afghanistan invasion changed combat airlift", by Major James G Young, highlights that confusion and the ways that assumptions can bring you to the edge of disaster.

It also shows that, as those of us from the aviation dodge say, "Flexibility is the key to airpower."

I thought it was an interesting read.
