As a former infantry officer, nothing would give me greater satisfaction than to follow the chorus and declare the end of the tank.
But no. It’s not the end of the tank. It’s just the 483rd confirmation that proper application of distributed leadership and initiative, combined arms tactics, OPSEC, and secure logistics are what maximize the chances of success.
Technology is only a means to an end, and those are the ways of combining the means effectively and efficiently.
