For the US Army to succeed in the 21st Century, Soldiers of all
ranks must understand and use Mission Command. Mission Command
empowers leaders at all levels, allowing them to synchronize all
warfighting functions and information systems to seize, retain, and
exploit the initiative against a range of adversaries. This
collection of historical vignettes seeks to sharpen our
understanding of Mission Command philosophy and practice by
providing examples from the past in which Mission Command
principles played a decisive role. Some vignettes show junior
officers following their commander's intent and exercising
disciplined initiative in very chaotic combat operations. Others
recount how field grade officers built cohesive teams that relied
on mutual trust to achieve key operational objectives. Each
historical account is complemented by an annotated explanation of
how the six Mission Command principles shaped the action. For this
reason, the collection is ideal for leader development in the Army
school system as well as for unit and individual professional
development. Mission Command places great responsibility on our
Soldiers.
