Thanks for posting this, it's an interesting read..

That being said, understand that there are many factors contributing to why this is happening and most of them are not cultural differences or anything of the sort.

I'm not gloating, saying that USSF are indestructable, or that we don't make mistakes; however, these events are not happening to us. There is a reason for that. Without making derogatory statements about services, units, practices, leadership, or how things are currently running over here right now, that's all I can really elaborate, so my apologies in advance for being vague.

Another note... - This paper assessed one region that had the same battlespace owner (1 brigade).. The more I read this paper, the more it doesn't tell you anything except for the one region of RC-E and the one unit. If they went to different battlespace owners in different regions and received similiar results, then and only then would I go so far to state "cultural differences". I haven't finished the paper, but if negative, one could argue this unit didn't treat its counterparts properly as the summary instead of cultural differences.
