When Krulak came up with his 3 block war concept that put our collective bulls eye on urban combat, and humanitarian relief ops.
We made a slight mistake though.
Urban areas are where fighting will take place without a doubt, but for future combat it will not be major metropolitan areas, it'll be villages and the areas around them.
Look at the fighting in the Philippines.
You have villages surrounded by jungles and the terrorist are attacking/going into them for supplies then heading back out to safe havens.
JUNGLE WARFARE is where the future is.
Its tough, nasty and the environment itself is trying its best to kill ya.
That's where the Marines need to focus. Jungle and Arctic Warfare. That's where the future is taking us. Whether we like it or not.
Interesting. It appears that the at the 50 second mark that the third marine from the front in the house clearing exercise is a woman.
