Part of the Course
by TheBell

Hi, baltimore aureole. It's not all bad, really. The Pentagon has had a "war college" for years and they send guys like McChrystal and Petraeus early on in their careers, once it becomes clear they have the potential to be field officers. They spend their time there studying strategy, of course, but also playing various games to sharpen their skills. I am sure that in modern times computer simulations are just "part of the course." Game theory is used by quite a number of very big businesses to make very big decisions.

Relieved or afraid? I guess it depends on just how much Joshua has learned.

Thank you for your reply.
