Code of the Warrior, the Kinder, Gentler Military and Marksmanship: Changing a Culture. - Research paper


Over the past few years there has been much talk and a fair amount of writing about an apparent clash of cultures within the Army. The cultures in question being the 'warrior' culture and the 'kinder, gentler' culture. So much has been made of the purported issue that General Shinseki commissioned the subject as one of the research projects at the Army War College. This strategy research paper examines this subject and makes the case that by putting an increased emphasis on marksmanship skill Army wide the issue will become moot. The point being that the enemy is just as dead no matter the gender nor temperament of the soldier who squeezed the trigger.
