Understanding Tactics


"In tactics, the most important thing is not whether you go left or right, but why you go left or right."[1]

—A. M. Gray

"There is only one principle of war and that's this. Hit the other fellow, as quick as you can, and as hard as you can, where it hurts him the most, when he ain't looking."[2]

—Sir William Slim
