Great share! Informed initiative, is in my opinion, that Soldiers understand the mission & the Commander's intent. Then the Soldiers & Leaders can backwards plan everything they need to do IOT accomplish the mission.

If they get separated from their unit- they still understand the intent of the mission: "Secure Bridge XYZ" and can rally with the other unit's members to accomplish that mission. Even if they have to make adjustments along the way.

Great points, a clear mission and commanders intent will be essential in Large scale ground combat operations. I also think it is important that they have the ability beyond completing the initial mission. They also must understand when to exploit success and when to consolidate gains.

Great points.... all. Concur with Chief & MSgt. Clear commander's intent must be communicated to all members of the unit.
