Abstract:

Soldiers should study military history throughout their career. The study of military history shows us that there are many lessons to learn from history and similar events to evaluate. We can connect these events to many parts of missions we conduct everyday. More importantly, we can use the successful techniques and tactics our predecessors used to avoid failures. Military history training should be a part of all Soldiers lives to include all noncommissioned officers education schools.
