Re: Another CHL goes home at the end of the night

OODA: Observe, Orient, Decide, Act.

Col John Boyd was an instructor at the Air Force Fighter Weapons school, the Air Force equivalent of the Navy's "Top Gun." Later he played an important role in developing energy management techniques for fighter tactics, and pulled a tour at the Pentagon where he sponsored development of the F-15 and F-16.

After retirement he wrote on the art of war and combat. He proposed the OODA concept. Every one goes through those steps. If you can, by increased awareness and preparation execute them faster than your oponent, you win. He was at first ignored by the Air Force, but asked to speak and teach by the Marine Corps. His doctrine was eventually studied and adopted by all the service. "Speed Kills."
