611 years ago today, on St Crispin's Day, a smaller, tired English army beat a larger French force at Agincourt. Not because it had more. Because it adapted faster and was led boldly. Today #ProjectAgincourt carries that name for a reason.@DOWAgincourt The memo says it plainly: "The goal is not a particular drone. It is a system built to adapt at scale." And: "These new systems will not be declared ready on paper." Here's what that means on the ground. Put a professional OPFOR, industry engineers, and real operational units together. Iterate in the dirt. Then push what works into the whole force, faster than the enemy's tech and TTPs can adapt. Robert Leonhard's Fighting by Minutes argues that time is the main dimension of modern war, and that controlling time matters more than an edge in firepower. He talks about time flanks: the enemy's open flank isn't always on the map, it's in time. Today we call them windows of opportunity. On this battlefield those windows open and close in minutes. The side that sees, decides, and changes first wins. The side that waits for the next requirements cycle loses. Tech alone won't deliver that speed. Leaders will. Bold, decisive leaders who push authority down, accept risk, and change TTPs between fights instead of between budget years. Leaders who give our Warriors honest training against a thinking enemy, not scripted wins. That is what our Warriors deserve. That is what our Nation deserves. We happy few have the warriors and the industry. Now let's lead like it.
