> Sports are good at distinguishing drills from practice
The military also. Individuals learn 'part task' drills (e.g. firing a tank gun), then practice them in a team environment (e.g. the different crew roles working together in a single tank) and then finally (in something fairly unique to the military) exercising collectively: multiple teams working together to achieve a common task. E.g. several tanks coordinating an attack, then adding in infantry, etc.
- hinkley 2y agoDefinitely true, but probably easier to get nerds to rewatch Ted Lasso than Full Metal Jacket.
- sevensor 2y agoI’m not sure that would be my go to movie for military discipline and effective teamwork, but I’d sure watch it again.
