A brief preface states the purpose. Chapter 1 overviews armchair generals, ranks U.S military units, and restates that military units must support both civilian and military goals as outlined in previous works. Chapter 2 deals with the need to sleep and war, in favor of sleep to the extent possible. Chapter 3 stresses the importance of logistics and staff over combat manpower. Chapter 4 lays out how to subvert the activity of traitors in a military unit by crystalline military cohesion, avoiding secret missions and the like. Chapter 5 lays out a three point dogma of military preparedness: drill, recon, kill. Chapter 6 deemphasizes fighting in the killing process, kill with minimum struggle. Chapter 7 points out that all are generals on point. Micromanaging combat at the expense of subordinate decision making is a gross mistake. Chapter 8 discusses flying A-holes such as Curtis LeMay. Harry Truman is also condemned.
