Jocko you are the father figure and the mentor that i never had. Thank you for enlightening my life. Respect from Romania from an 41 years old ex military scout .
Embarrassed putting this on a Jocko Podcast, but... currently playing a video game while listening to this. Changing up my strategy based off of the Indirect Approach. INSTANTLY much more ass has been kicked. Thanks Jocko, and don't worry I plan on punishing my body soon in the gym.
I need this type of podcast, being too complacent, too comfortable in this day and age is a weakness and allows threats to take advantage of you. You become a target, that's why learning to protect yourself and to scan your environment is a must, not saying freedom is not important but naivety makes you a target.
This episode is seminal. Jocko is becoming a National treasure. The author is a military man and has thus approximated the truth here. The ultimate philosophy is to act as a servant-friend, not a military strategist. Scripture directs us to “speak the truth and love.” Rather than flanking them as an enemy, we are to come alongside our leaders so as to be a blessing to them.
YES!!! Another excellent multi episode analysis on tactics with Good Deal Dave! I learn more from these than almost any other resource I've ever had. The four part one on the Marine Corps pub on tactics got me through school for my business degree and into a new career almost by itself. Keep up the excellent work, gentlemen!
"Truth" is neither permanent nor formless and goes beyond the base measurements conceived within a specific timeline of events which can be experienced between the conscious layers of various circumstantial equations.
1:23:29 AUFTRAGSTAKTIK (Auftrag = assignment, commission, task) means giving your subordinates a clear objective which THEY chose how to accomplish. Eg.: "Take that hill." ("Hey Dave, here's what we're gonna do. HOW do you think we should do it") Contrary to BEFEHLSTAKTIK (Befehl = order, command, imperative, instruction), giving your subordinates an objective AND all the details HOW they should do it. Eg.: "Fire team 1 advances 200m to the left of that boulder and then supressing the enemy while fire team 2 pushes onward and takes that hill) Which was a new thing to introduce in the 1800s, giving individuals more freedom to manouver in the field -> decentralized command, less dictating your troops, giving them the chance to be creative and show their quality
This is a good one. It speaks to me. Let me explain how. I live near and work aboard Subase Kings Bay. I'm retired from the Navy but I sometimes want to ask the men & women on active duty why the base is trashed, why this lack of excellence and respect is tolerated. There's trash lying about everywhere. I've even had OLD Navy men, the heroes & seadogs of WWII that visit our base regularly, ask me why the men and women in uniform here tolerate such a lack of cleanliness. I have no answer. So maybe the indirect approach could be to form a detail of retired seadogs that want the base more squared away to muster up and perform FOD walks a few days a week. It will give us purpose, some exercise, and we can set the example. And maybe young naval leaders will see us and say to themselves, there's no reason these old dogs should be doing this... we should.
As a software engineer, I would say the indirect approach is better there too. After all who writes code, but people? A naive engineer writes a specific solution to a specific problem. A more experienced engineer uses an appropriate design pattern that solves the problem, but also allows the code to be easily modified to solve similar but different problems. A direct approach in software is limited and fragile. An indirect approach is extensible and scalable.
Along the path of urgency are those waist deep in destiny. Beyond the muck and mire where men burn their desires a patient stone resides. There is a stone on top of the mountain that shapes the horizon where the feathered eagle struggles to fly this stone simply lies consistent in the heights. The pebble in your boot is greater than the mountain in your way.-DW
Never sacrifice the TRUTH.. IT IS THE BEST WEAPON TO EVEN OUT THE PLAYING FIELD. yup. Keep nudging with the IV drip of truth until the REALITY EATS THE PEOPLES Conscience LIKE BATTERY ACID to change &STOP status LIE. :o
Our countries truth by what we try to live by is our constitution, our enemies don't come at us front a direct confrontation but are taking the indirect approach and we as Americans believe it cannot happen. But here we are through many means being used to change who we are.
Behold the odyssey of time. The years transform into a moment that defines an age. The weight of the future is the past and by the present it is belayed. When the present circumstances become unbearable, our past will come crashing down destroying our future.-DW
Let the past obliterate that current mindset that is taking everyone so far away from compassion for the human condition.. THAT IS WHY AI will NEVER WORK for mind control.. The resistant ones.. Who wont leave their heart out will puke on the diodes &wake everyone else up.. To merge &dissect any operable constructive ideas to transform unacceptable status quo.. Hmm..
Heh its not bay-sil it's bas-il - bas as in bat and il as in "ill". Just a point of information, massive respect for you Jocko :) Really interesting topic, looking forward to finishing work and listening to the rest of it.
I love how Jocko teases Echo for his young years and maybe lack of experience when Echo is a giant dude black belt jiu jitsu hahahaha you can feel the though love from Jocko
Is the lie not a slave of the truth? Is it not constantly maintained to appear as the truth? Is the path not a slave of the way? Is it not constantly maintained to appear as the way? Do not the lie and the path eventually exhaust and doesn’t the truth and the way remain?-DW
This episode is a very direct approach to that the indirect approach is the best idea all the time.And that is the truth. Also it might be an indirect approach to sell protein powders and make people practice jew jitsu. "Clever girl" - Muldoon.
Clausewitz' maxim that superior numbers are highly desirable (but not absolutely essential) is unquestionable. Be as strong as possible, simple. So is the maxim "keep the forces concentrated" (or German "schwerpunkt") relevant to massed armored offensives and bewegungskrieg.
This document was released by commander-in-chief of the German Army, Walther von Brauchitsch, on 24 November 1938. I hereby set forward the following guidelines as a working basis for the development of our motorized and mobile forces: I. Tasks A) The Tank Division Must carry out the following tasks: At the beginning of the war, they are to assigned to areas the conquest of which are of operational importance for the outcome of the war. This is the prerequisite for them to continue to spearhead the army's most important operations, either independently or, if necessary, reinforced. Continue to fight as outlined in point 1. Expand and exploit the breakthroughs made by the infantry divisions in the enemy's defensive front. When part of the army reserve, to take participate in counter-attacks in large numbers. B) The Other Motorized Forces The army tank brigades. The tank brigade is an army-level unit. They are to pave the way for the infantry divisions, or to be employed together with the motorized infantry division. In addition to the army tank brigades, some of the heaviest tank companies are to support the infantry's attack against fortifications. The motorized army reconnaissance battalion for operational reconnaissance, and possibly as combat support for tank divisions and motorized infantry divisions. The divisional reconnaissance battalion. Its task is to provide intelligence to support the divisional commander's dicision making, by condensing the information gathered from intercepted communication, aerial reconnaissance, and operational reconnaissance within its operational area. (Tactical reconnaissance). The corps-level mobile units. It is planned to assign a motorcycle infantry battalion to I. to XIII. and XVII. Armee-Korps. These are intended to be used as mobile corps units, for example capturing important points in advance of the marching soldiers, to strike at enemy lines in critical areas to allow intelligence gathering or to offer direct support for reconnaissance units, and as a mobile tactical reserve for the corps. In Eastern Prussia, 1. Kavallerie-Division is planned to function as a reconnaissance and combat unit specifically suited to the tasks specifically associated with the east. C) The Motorized Infantry Division The motorized infantry division is planned to function independantly, or when appropriate in association with tank divisions, as a highly mobile unit. They should be able to fight the enemy in the same way that infantry divisions are. They can also be used as quick reserves at critical areas. D) The Army Transport Regiments Their task is to make the infantry division independent of railroads by handling transportation and logistics. (No railroad dependency!) II. The following organizational considerations result from the items outlined in section I: A) The Tank Division A total of nine tank divisions are planned. In the spring of 1939, the four existing leichten Divisionen are to be converted to tank divisions. The final composition of the tank division is to be based on these specifications: High mobility, especially for the tanks. Great offensive strength. Maneuverability of the units and the unit commanders. Protection against enemy fire, especially for the tanks against the anti-tank weapons of the infantry (and to the greatest extent possible against 37 mm guns as well). The armored personnel carriers should be capable of withstanding rifle fire (and to the greatest extent possible also against rifle-caliber anti-tank rounds). Wide operational range for all the vehicles. Greatest possible readiness during peacetime. The amount of infantry and artillery within the tank division must be based on the requirement of high mobility and high combat efficiency. One other possibility is try to to place the tank divisions at corps level, so that the corps has the supply duties for tank divisions in their areas. B) The Other Motorized Forces The army tank brigades. The organization is to follow the that of the tank brigades of the tank divisions. Rather than maneuverability and action radius, however, emphasis is to be on firepower and armor (if possible against 47 mm anti-tank guns). When employed against fortifications, tank companies are to be equipped with the heaviest tanks available. The motorized army reconnaissance battalions. The organization is to allow the reconnaissance battalions to carry out their assignments and relay intelligence at long ranges. The goal is to simplify the organization to allow greater mobility for the battalion and its command. Furthermore, all vehicles are to have cross-country driving ability, and the towed anti-tank guns are to be replaced with self-propelled guns. The divisional reconnaissance battalion. During peacetime, it is available to the tank divisions, the motorized infantry divisions and the mountain divisions. The infantry divisions does not have these units during peacetime; instead, they are formed from the mounted battalion of the corps cavalry regiments. Their organization is to be designed to allow them to exclusive focus on their task of tactical reconnaissance within the area of their parent unit. The emphasis is on pure-bred, lean organization, full cross-country capability and thereby the greatest possible mobility. Mobile corps units. The II. (Bicycle) battalions of the corps cavalry regiments of the I. to XIII. and XVII. Armee-Korps are, beginning in the spring of 1939, to convert to motorcycle battalions. Kavallerie-Division Ostpreussen. 1. Kavallerie-Brigade is, beginning in the spring of 1939, to be enlarged to a cavalry division with four regiments. It is to be investigated whether this re-organization will improve its combat strength. C) The Motorized Infantry Division To improve mobility and flexibility of command, a final organization with six infantry battalions (instead of nine), along with the corresponding auxiliary weapons, is to be investigated. D) The Army Transport Regiments During peacetime, the equipment of the army transport regiments is to be kept in storage. The army transport regiment columns must be able to transport both personnel and vehicles, as well as towing artillery. It is required that all vehicles are commercial types, and that they have the greatest possible cross-country capability. III. The following items should be observed for the management and training of the personnel: The armored forces must be a force that displays the greatest daring. It must be assured that they are developed into an elite group, with an aggressive spirit, impetus, internal and external dicipline, and dependability. To achieve this, as well as the greatest possible readiness, or the tank divisions, a third (voluntary) service year should be considered for the personnel of the tank divisions. Within the cavalry, an unconditional aggressive spirit, skill, and operational independence must be formed. The officer corps of the cavalry, the motorized reconnaissance battalions and the infantry regiments of the tank divisions must be replaced. IV. During the development of the motorization of the army, the following requirements must be followed to the utmost: Limitation in the number of different types of equipment, Utilization of commercial vehicles types and parts, Development of diesel engines; these must be modified to allow for use with columns over long distances, Development of engines powered by coal dust, Improvements of fuel logistics, Simplification of the spare part procedure for all special-purpose vehicles, Battlefield ammunition-, medical-, and tracked supply vehicles.

40:53 44:15 We wish we could, but our experiences force us to disagree when it comes to HuMANIty and the Father. We agree when it comes to everything else in between. 2:10:39 A simulation is doing based on reality based physics.
TRUTH.. Can be defined as common simple applicable reality..?? But don't try to chop the people out of their rights again! Who else feels it? :O The complicated slabs of menacing meat are salivating?? &looking quite intently for something else to take? while slowly trying to marinate everyone in a trap.. By the slobber of our own chinny chin chins eh? But it is provoked BY THEM.. The sad tales & trails of all of our selfless decrepit personal defense dialogue against injustice. It could be all we've ever posted any place on the troubled social media networks We all have it? In msgs &posts. We as people tend to seek others to agree with and relate to when we're hurting.. &We're all subject to the reflex of self preservation?? Sure. But how does one deal w/some 'thing' that appears to represent itself not only as a human rights eater but would like no more to do with us? than to cook any one in opposition to the unfairness.. In our own saliva? Or we are to continue in silence about the brokenness we find &the lack of compassion in the current justice system. general public w grievances about unfair censorship scare tactics &the ineffective use of the format for debate to combat the continual perjury of contractual sorcery. Who is making a massive list of peoples profile names claiming they are being named for complaints for infringements? make believe &lies? Most people know when they reshare an item.. It has a share button. That means it is public & already shared? Yes. This is getting old. But.. Many of us are targeted simply bc we disagree with the age old plan of de-visioning &fear. We agree with reasonable TRUTH. Any disruption by those who seek to bring forth mentality that comingles with abortion ethnic hate ethical disgrace & or equality codes that have no legal or ethical merit or blatantly intend to enforce immoral activity or support dehumanizing tactics are being brought forth to be exposed. The number who have questions &have right to address the opposition of the people are growing &the irony? fakery & false accusation drown slowly with all the spit in the wind about stolen saliva.. 🇺🇸
@@legionarulsquad6676 what does your response even mean? Echo helped Jocko start this podcast and my comment was saying I wish Jocko didn’t make so many disparaging remarks to Echo.
@@shepsean1 he helped him indeed, but with or without him Jocko would have started this project sooner or later. Be advised, I'm not disrespecting Echo i like him and respect him . But this is like the army someone is getting digs . But if you look carefully it's not done with disrespect. And my comment was intended to be something like a joke ( a dig at you) in the sense that " who cares about Echo we are for Jocko" but it was a joke because the podcast will not be the same widout him . I hope my answer is clear this time. Respect.
Oh no Sir, EVEN computer programmers have to use indirect assaults. Backdoor that code or whatever. Like trying to fix the code you messed up and finding a work around lol Its EVERYWHERE! Wish I learned strategies like these earlier I am a TERRIBLE leader. Getting better everyday and I got to thank Jocko Podcast, and myself 🤜🤛
Jocko is echo you’re direct approach, if not then who? And what went into building the trust between you to be able to “stab them in the eye” with the truth?
A scientist will only hold onto any theory until the moment it is disproven, Upon which it is immediately either modified or discarded, hence "theory".
Listening to this in certain parts is almost a description of the current conflict in Ukraine. Russia is making the classic mistakes, while Ukraine is making good strategic a d tactical decisions. One could hypothesize who is coaching the Ukrainians.. or at least what books they are reading.
I'm not an executive in a corporation and i bet the overwhelming majority of listeners/viewers aren't either. I hope the show returns to its former greatness

No shortcuts. No excuses.
"Truth" is neither permanent nor formless and goes beyond the base measurements conceived within a specific timeline of events which can be experienced between the conscious layers of various circumstantial equations.

I. Tasks
A) The Tank Division

At the beginning of the war, they are to assigned to areas the conquest of which are of operational importance for the outcome of the war. This is the prerequisite for them to continue to spearhead the army's most important operations, either independently or, if necessary, reinforced.
Continue to fight as outlined in point 1.
Expand and exploit the breakthroughs made by the infantry divisions in the enemy's defensive front.
When part of the army reserve, to take participate in counter-attacks in large numbers.
B) The Other Motorized Forces
The army tank brigades. The tank brigade is an army-level unit. They are to pave the way for the infantry divisions, or to be employed together with the motorized infantry division.
In addition to the army tank brigades, some of the heaviest tank companies are to support the infantry's attack against fortifications.
The motorized army reconnaissance battalion for operational reconnaissance, and possibly as combat support for tank divisions and motorized infantry divisions.
The divisional reconnaissance battalion. Its task is to provide intelligence to support the divisional commander's dicision making, by condensing the information gathered from intercepted communication, aerial reconnaissance, and operational reconnaissance within its operational area.

D) The Army Transport Regiments
Their task is to make the infantry division independent of railroads by handling transportation and logistics. (No railroad dependency!)
II.
The following organizational considerations result from the items outlined in section I:
A) The Tank Division
A total of nine tank divisions are planned. In the spring of 1939, the four existing leichten Divisionen are to be converted to tank divisions. The final composition of the tank division is to be based on these specifications:

Their organization is to be designed to allow them to exclusive focus on their task of tactical reconnaissance within the area of their parent unit. The emphasis is on pure-bred, lean organization, full cross-country capability and thereby the greatest possible mobility.
Mobile corps units. The II. (Bicycle) battalions of the corps cavalry regiments of the I. to XIII. and XVII. Armee-Korps are, beginning in the spring of 1939, to convert to motorcycle battalions.
Kavallerie-Division Ostpreussen. 1. Kavallerie-Brigade is, beginning in the spring of 1939, to be enlarged to a cavalry division with four regiments. It is to be investigated whether this re-organization will improve its combat strength.
C) The Motorized Infantry Division
To improve mobility and flexibility of command, a final organization with six infantry battalions (instead of nine), along with the corresponding auxiliary weapons, is to be investigated.
D) The Army Transport Regiments
During peacetime, the equipment of the army transport regiments is to be kept in storage. The army transport regiment columns must be able to transport both personnel and vehicles, as well as towing artillery. It is required that all vehicles are commercial types, and that they have the greatest possible cross-country capability.
III.
The following items should be observed for the management and training of the personnel:
The armored forces must be a force that displays the greatest daring. It must be assured that they are developed into an elite group, with an aggressive spirit, impetus, internal and external dicipline, and dependability.
To achieve this, as well as the greatest possible readiness, or the tank divisions, a third (voluntary) service year should be considered for the personnel of the tank divisions.
Within the cavalry, an unconditional aggressive spirit, skill, and operational independence must be formed.
The officer corps of the cavalry, the motorized reconnaissance battalions and the infantry regiments of the tank divisions must be replaced.
IV.
During the development of the motorization of the army, the following requirements must be followed to the utmost:
Limitation in the number of different types of equipment,
Utilization of commercial vehicles types and parts,
Development of diesel engines; these must be modified to allow for use with columns over long distances,
Development of engines powered by coal dust,
Improvements of fuel logistics,
Simplification of the spare part procedure for all special-purpose vehicles,
Battlefield ammunition-, medical-, and tracked supply vehicles.

Throwing battalions of meninto unwinnable battles makes me think about the keynesian policies used by the federal reserve to solve the economic problems caused by keynesianism.
Key difference being that the men going to war aren't worthless. Federal reserve notes on the other hand... 🤔

I wonder how many guns Jocko's got..
He only needs the 2 💪💪

44:15 We wish we could, but our experiences force us to disagree when it comes to HuMANIty and the Father. We agree when it comes to everything else in between.
2:10:39 A simulation is doing based on reality based physics.
There is only one Truth
TRUTH.. Can be defined as common simple applicable reality..?? But don't try to chop the people out of their rights again! Who else feels it? :O
The complicated slabs of menacing meat are salivating?? &looking quite intently for something else to take? while slowly trying to marinate everyone in a trap..
By the slobber of our own chinny chin chins eh? But it is provoked BY THEM.. The sad tales & trails of all of our selfless decrepit personal defense dialogue against injustice. It could be all we've ever posted any place on the troubled social media networks
We all have it? In msgs &posts. We as people tend to seek others to agree with and relate to when we're hurting.. &We're all subject to the reflex of self preservation?? Sure. But how does one deal w/some 'thing' that appears to represent itself not only as a human rights eater but would like no more to do with us? than to cook any one in opposition to the unfairness.. In our own saliva? Or we are to continue in silence about the brokenness we find &the lack of compassion in the current justice system. general public w grievances about unfair censorship scare tactics &the ineffective use of the format for debate to combat the continual perjury of contractual sorcery. Who is making a massive list of peoples profile names claiming they are being named for complaints for infringements? make believe &lies? Most people know when they reshare an item.. It has a share button. That means it is public & already shared? Yes. This is getting old. But.. Many of us are targeted simply bc we disagree with the age old plan of de-visioning &fear. We agree with reasonable TRUTH. Any disruption by those who seek to bring forth mentality that comingles with abortion ethnic hate ethical disgrace & or equality codes that have no legal or ethical merit or blatantly intend to enforce immoral activity or support dehumanizing tactics are being brought forth to be exposed. The number who have questions &have right to address the opposition of the people are growing &the irony? fakery & false accusation drown slowly with all the spit in the wind about stolen saliva.. 🇺🇸
Lee, apparently in his frustration and over confidence authorized Pickett's charge. It didn't work out to well.
I wish there were less digs at Echo. I think he deserves more respect.
Dude ...he has all the respect. But we are here for Jocko:))
@@legionarulsquad6676 what does your response even mean? Echo helped Jocko start this podcast and my comment was saying I wish Jocko didn’t make so many disparaging remarks to Echo.
@@shepsean1 he helped him indeed, but with or without him Jocko would have started this project sooner or later. Be advised, I'm not disrespecting Echo i like him and respect him . But this is like the army someone is getting digs . But if you look carefully it's not done with disrespect. And my comment was intended to be something like a joke ( a dig at you) in the sense that " who cares about Echo we are for Jocko" but it was a joke because the podcast will not be the same widout him . I hope my answer is clear this time. Respect.
Jocko, if you are from the UK Basil is pronounced BAZZ IL not BAY SIL 😊
Oh no Sir, EVEN computer programmers have to use indirect assaults. Backdoor that code or whatever. Like trying to fix the code you messed up and finding a work around lol Its EVERYWHERE! Wish I learned strategies like these earlier I am a TERRIBLE leader. Getting better everyday and I got to thank Jocko Podcast, and myself 🤜🤛
Jocko is echo you’re direct approach, if not then who? And what went into building the trust between you to be able to “stab them in the eye” with the truth?
A scientist will only hold onto any theory until the moment it is disproven,
Upon which it is immediately either modified or discarded, hence "theory".

Better to lie to people so you get what you want than the truth. .. I would like to hear jokos truth about war. ?

Listening to this in certain parts is almost a description of the current conflict in Ukraine. Russia is making the classic mistakes, while Ukraine is making good strategic a d tactical decisions. One could hypothesize who is coaching the Ukrainians.. or at least what books they are reading.
😇
Good Deal Dave?
Good deal! Dave
Default aggressive on the longway around
I'm not an executive in a corporation and i bet the overwhelming majority of listeners/viewers aren't either. I hope the show returns to its former greatness
34:30 even though I offered some of the best advice on planet earth my students never paid attention to it cause i had a nasty habit of saying, "well actually you sorry sack of shit", before offering such sound advice. 🤷🏽♂️
That is hilarious, thank you
Celebrating pagan holidays does NOT equate to feeding your pet heart worm pills, Echo.
Nah, I see where Echo is going
There is a big difference between prophets and kings. 1st and 2nd books of Samuel, Kings, and Chronicles in the Bible illustrates this well.
Manipulation 😉😂😂😂
Very visual. Hey, he’s lying. No, I think he’s telling the truth. Thank you
Christians co-oping pagan holidays is a common misconception.
They way you think a job should be done is opinion. .
Truth has nothing to do with. .. many ways to skin a cat. .if the skin comes out the same. .. how is that anything to with the truth. . ? The stupid people sometimes have the best idea

Truth hurts. . So does falling of your bike. .. but you are Soo military minded. ..

Good deal Dave is not my favorite guest.
