A good review of the literature is FitzGibbon, 1995) which, while largely con- cerning the Battle of Goose Green in 1982, goes in some detail into the theory of auftragstakik, and befehlstaktik. It is somewhat inaccessible to the non-military reader. Confusingly he describes the former - mission command – as ‘directive command’, referring to the practice of issuing a single command directive and leaving to the subordinate how the directive is to be achieved. 20.

  • Pull Together Winter/Spring 2013
    Preservation, Education, and Commemoration Vol. 52, No. 1 Winter 2012-2013 PULL TOGETHER Newsletter of the Naval Historical Foundation Doing History the Royal Navy Way Interview with former First Sea Lord Adm. Sir Jonathon Band GCB DL—page 3 Unsung American Naval Hero —page 9 Also in this issue: Message From the Chairman, p. 2; Navy Museum News, pp. 15-18; Lady Franklin Bay Relief Expedition, pp. 20–21; Naval History News, pp. 22-24; News From the NHF, pp. 25–31. Message From the Chairman In recent weeks you should have received a letter from our new president, Rear Adm. John Mitchell, detailing many of the accomplishments made by your Naval Historical Foundation (NHF) during 2012. This annual appeal generates needed funds to sustain the day-to-day operations of the NHF. Copy paper, paper clips, pens, sticky notes, and most especially our people are the motor oil that keep the Foundation engine running; past year- end appeals have generated the sums needed to strengthen our fi nancial base. Thus, I hope that you can respond with a check or an online contribution. If you are in government service, also think about us as a designated charity for the Combined Federal Campaign. Your contributions make a big difference in our ability to preserve our naval history, commemorate the accomplishments of our Sailors, and educate Americans about our Navy’s great history and heritage. Education is one of our most important priorities. Current Navy leaders are a key component of the audiences we seek to enlighten. In that regard, we received much positive feedback on our last edition of Pull Together, which opened with a reprint of Dudley Knox’s 1926 “Our Vanishing History and Traditions” article that led to the creation of our organization.
