Good article but I disagree with their position vis a vis NCO's. The lack of trained leadership personnel at the squad level (actually that also includes junior officers at the platoon level) compounded by a hierarchical decision making structure that creates huge issues when their senior leaders are incapacitated is, and has been, a major weakness.

I agree. It's the same with their air forces, if there isn't a senior leader in their headset telling them what to do they default to doing nothing.
