» Feature Writer Daniel Workman - Power of reconnaissance & night vision

Excellent article. Shows that in addition to the quality of troops and their preparation, the British used the number one commandment of war: know your enemy. About 2,500 years ago a Chinese "defense analyst" Sun Tzu wrote in The Art of War "If you know the enemy and know yourself you need not fear the result of a hundred battles."

The British advantages in terms of reconnaissance and night vision rangs some bells from one of my recent articles.

Well I must admit that the subject is under rapid technical innovation. Those who forgot that LTC Joe Manduke (CID) was the one who fitting these instruments on the UAV's at Fort Huachucha-and the had to go to Pan**ma and Guat**-Joe Manduke, "Colonel" Joe,
Then he was NSA'ed and sent Canada to wait on a beach.
A lot of people sacrificed, and I hope you all know that.
