Welcome, Ryan Bailey. In fact I understand what you are saying, my university books contain loads of those words (but then in Dutch).

I wonder how they define an integral in the army. Do they use the word "integra" or do they say: the area under that curvy thingy that arises when one does remarkable things to x so that it becomes an y.

Read or write it maybe but no one speaks English that way.

Welcome, sir.

I noted your comment on the SUPREME COMMAND thread at the staff college. Your brevity was appreciated. I hope that you'll read the book as it's a valuable contribution to the study of leadership in wartime.

I look forward to your participation and, again, welcome.
