LazerTag leads the way to combat competence
Interesting article on how the latest generation of Army officers have become more effective combat leaders as a result of using an industrial-strength version of LazerTag during maneuvers. It also apparently has made it much easier to teach the GIs the importance of finding and using cover.
The post is titled, "Why Lieutenants Aren't As Dumb As They Used To Be," a comment on the age-old lament of grizzeled grunts burdened with teaching their newbie 1st Looeys how to fight without getting too many of the troops killed during the learning process.
