  Pundits have long predicted the end of conventional warfare but for the foreseeable future, 
  it is here to stay. Counterinsurgency, guerrilla warfare, terrorism, peace enforcement, policing. 
   
   
   
  All these forms, like conventional warfare, are as old as mankind. Modern militaries claim to be 
  professional bodies, responsible for the education, control, and discipline of their members. But at least one aspect of this claim is poorly executed: tactics are not taught to junior leaders, which is why this guide is essential for all junior leaders, officers, and NCOs alike. 
   
   
   
  There is a military adage that there is no teacher like the enemy. True; but the wise commander 
  prepares to meet that enemy and become their teacher instead. This is your essential study guide.
