Mallards



 

I'm reading "The Greatest Blunders in Military History".   There are common themes emerging as I read episode after episode.  Don't change your plans at the last minute.  Communicate!  Be bold but cautious (have no idea how you do both at the same time).   Be a good leader and don't run back behind the lines and sit under a table and drink yourself silly (that one is pretty self explanatory).  Liked the book but thought there had to be more truly bad battles.  Turns out there are.  I only checked out Volume 1.  There is a Volume II.
