At first I thought this was a joke, but apparently it's a serious policy.
Excerpts;
“By following the 700-step planning process, leaders can be confident in their decision to risk their soldiers’ lives in any conflict with questionable strategic and operational goals.”
"According to Dial, the Army was looking at ways to remove all moral culpability of sending America’s sons and daughters to their deaths under dubious circumstances since the Vietnam War."
“It is completely unreasonable to think that a company grade officer or NCO could cover the 700-step OPORD by themselves,” Billingsly said. “That is why the Rand corporation has been awarded a $4 billion contract to provide personalized in-theater research, transcription, and advisory services at every conceivable level of the chain of command.”
“Leaders won’t have to worry about a thing and can rest easy,” added Billingsly, “and give them more time to focus on important things like the embedded RAND consultants’ security, billeting, transportation, and meals.”
Pardon me while I puke in my helmet...
