SOF education : ignore at your own peril / Dr. Emily Spencer and Colonel (retired) Bernd Horn. : D4-10/26-2020E-PDF ; D4-13/26-2020E-PDF
"This publication is extremely important for Special Operations Forces (SOF), as well as all military personnel at large, because it deals with education, "the shaping of the mind." Education is an interesting concept in the military because everyone nods energetically when asked if education is important. However, when the acid test of reality rears its ugly head and organizations, as well as their personnel, are required to commit resources (i.e. time and money) it quickly becomes apparent that education is just not that important. … As such, SOF Education, our 26th Education & Research Centre (ERC) monograph, defines education and its importance to success within the defence environment, and lays out why it is especially imperative for the SOF community. As always, this monograph is designed to inform and spark discussion. Notably, its creation was a result of an initiative within CANSOFCOM to better define and structure senior non-commissioned officer education"--Foreword, page vii.
