Many elements go into an offensive strategy. There are the issues of lengthening our supply lines, the capitalization of momentum while maintaining economy of force, and the precision and timing that allow us to prevail over our defensive opponent. Time is not a friend to the attacker, so our actions need to be swift and decisive. When seeking our military aims, we will often come up against an enemy army. While destruction of the enemy army may not be the primary goal, we must still be prepared to deal with such resistance. In this episode, Malark takes a close look at how Clausewitz prepares us to conduct an offensive battle.
