Argued Until Marked

When a staff college's school solutions to reused tactical decision exercises stop being contested

A research poster from the School of Settled Matters reads 1,912 syndicate debrief sheets for 146 tactical decision exercises reused across twenty course years of one staff college's command-and-staff course, finding that school solutions to assessed exercises stopped being contested by a median third sitting and those to unassessed exercises by the sixth, that 44 of 61 settled solutions citing a later-revised doctrine note were reissued unchanged, and that 27 of 39 reopenings followed the solution author's posting out.
