About Super-Squad: The Now Missing Component

Product Description Full extent of U.S. tactical ineptitude and the amazing opportunity it provides. With the small-unit stratagems in this book, U.S. commanders can now perform the state of the art for any 3GW maneuver. It derives from the combined research of the world's other major armies. Advanced squad tactics are involved, so America's junior enlisted and NCOs will also be interested. More U.S. wars can now be won and lives saved. Review "That Japan, China, Germany, and Russia were all fighting the same way at the end of WWII means they had collectively reached the state of the art for infantry tactics."--former CO of the USMC's East Coast School of Infantry, 2019 "The book's . . . squad-level maneuvers and 3rd generation warfare techniques demonstrate effective ways to conduct all aspects of [modern-day] ground combat."-- battalion hdqts. within 7th Special Forces Group, 9 May 2020 "[In Super-Squad,] Poole reveals that the state of the art for small-unit infantry tactics existed throughout the major Eastern Armies from 1945 to 1973 and has since atrophied in some Russian and Chinese units through too much access to technology."-- Tactics and Preparedness, May 2020 " 'Super-Squad: The Now Missing Component' . . . will be made available in the Nimitz Library to benefit the Brigade of Midshipmen and Naval Academy faculty and staff."--Superintendent's Office, April 2020 "For the first time in U.S. literature, this in-depth study provides the worldwide state of the art for most small-unit infantry maneuvers. U.S. units have two choices: (1) develop them from scratch through field experimentation; or (2) tailor the recognized best to their specific situation." -- Google Books, March 2020 " 'Super-Squad' . . . will strengthen the . . . Combined Arms Research Library's collection [of materials] for its users."--U.S. Army Cmd. & Gen. Staff College, Fort Leavenworth, KS, March 2020 "It ['Super-Squad'] will be used for years to come by students attending various courses at the Maneuver Center of Excellence, Fort Benning, Georgia."-- Donovan Research Library, 20 February 2020 "Poole divulges last century's open secret: in close combat, high-tech 2GW ... fares poorly against low-tech 3GW. We can continue to ignore this lesson, or ... do what he recommends: shift our ... mindset and training from overwhelming firepower to squad-level surprise (founder/editor of 'Red Team Journal') ."-- Dr. Mark Mateski, 7 December 2019 "In the 20th century, B.Gen. Billy Mitchell pointed the way to new air tactics and doctrine. The military establishment refused to listen. The result was Pearl Harbor!... Poole points [the way to ground] victory (retired U.S. Army historian of 35 years)." -- Kim Holien, 7 December 2019 "[Poole's] unmatched knowledge of, and insights into, our war fighting requirements provide a road map for ... future battlefields (former CENTCOM Head)." -- Gen. A.C. Zinni USMC (Ret.), 7 December 2019 "Poole's ... an ... advocate for those in the trenches and the unimaginable burdens they shoulder.... He fights for them because they fight for us (former Head of 1st Marine Division)." --Maj.Gen. John H. Admire USMC (Ret.), 7 December 2019 About the Author In the 25 years since retirement, Poole has researched the small-unit tactics of other nations and written 18 other books. Since retirement, Poole has traveled extensively in both Communist and Islamist worlds to study the infantry tactics of America's enemies. He has done research in Mainland China (twice), North Korea, Vietnam, Cambodia, Pakistan (twice), Bangladesh, Malaysia, Iran, Lebanon, Turkey, the Emirates, Egypt, Sudan, Tanzania, Zambia, South Africa, Morocco, and Venezuela.Over the course of his lifetime, he has visited scores of other nations on all five continents. Several periods in Poole's life have qualified him to accurately mirror the viewpoints of America's true fighters -- its junior enlisted infantrymen. In 1965, his first official orders
