NEW BLOGGING SERIES
I’ve started a series of posts at Chicago Boyz entitled “Cutting Edge Military Theory: A Primer (Part I.)“. It is intended to be an introduction for a general audience that may be unaware of folks like John Boyd, Art Cebrowski, Tom Barnett, William Lind, John Robb, John Arquilla, Chet Richards, Thomas Hammes and the bewildering array of acronyms, concepts and neologistic jargon they have unleashed on the world of warfare. It was an idea, originally suggested, as it happens, by Lexington Green.
Those of you with expertise or strong opinions on military matters, feel free to hop in on the comments section at Chicago Boyz and make free with the questions that may arise.

Excellent idea. I’ve been wanting this kind of a general overview of current thinking on military affairs for a while now so that I could introduce them to some of my friends.

Thanks Phil! Next up will be Boyd.

Mark, I don’t remember making the suggestion! But is a good one, and you are the right guy to do it. The first entry is very solid. I look forward to the rest.

Hi Lex,
It might have been in a comment or it might have been in email. Can’t recall, but I tucked your idea away on a post it note ( where it has sat until the other day LOL!)
