The Importance Of History To The Military Professional
Report Date:
2009-08-11
Abstract:
History is important to the development of professional soldiers and should continue to be utilized during times of training, and be integrated in all military schools. History provides lessons in tactics and strategy, which can be applied to current situations, illustrate points of doctrine, and instill values of military heritage. By studying the evolution of warfare, past mistakes can be integrated into training to improve upon current performance. Military history is a key element in the education of a soldier which can instill the ability to perceive historical parallels during battle and capitalize on the lessons learned from the past.
