X11812: Run and Fight: Mobility & Maneuver in Warfare in Splash 2017 (Nov. 18 - 19, 2017)

We'll go over a prepared lecture covering thinkers such as Sun Tzu, B.H. Liddell Hart, and J.F.C. Fuller, and how their thinking evolved into Blitzkreig warfare and -- more broadly -- modern maneuver warfare. We'll go over several related tactics and several historical battles, all in pursuit of illustrating the value of mobility.
