Book Review: "Call Sign Chaos" By Jim Mattis

One of the most interesting and intellectual works I've read in quite some time in discussing the varied forms of leadership.

Jim Mattis discusses his experiences in depth with front line action that is in real time.

"The details you don't give in your orders are as important as the ones you do."
What I wonder is in the fact that our enemies could possibly get hold of how we operate and use it against us.

For example a critical goal was to prevent Saddam from torching the oil fields, yet we have a similar situation happening today with drones just days after this release.

Makes you wonder how much information is too much when writing a book.
However, with that said I enjoyed reading his perspective on wartime and peace and would love to read more in the future.
