Arab Armies suck because if cultural norms ..... enlisted are treated as uneducated peons, while the Officer class lords over them
Knowledge is NOT Shared, but horded, again by officers, independent thinking is discouraged ...
The west trains from the top down ... Officers - NCO Cadre - Lowly Privates
As a Private First Class, I may only have a couple or years in service, but I know the basics and I would be able to continue the mission if the squad leader is incapacitated, having been briefed on the objectives, timing, expectations.
when an action takes place, like Assault this building, everyone knows his part, even the lowly private is trained to ' take over ' in case the Sergeants and squad leaders are unable to continue leading.
