Armored Infantry Leadership: How 6 Armies Do It

New video that compares how 6 armies (U.S. Denmark, France, Sweden, U.K. and the Netherlands) handle command and control in Armored Infantry Platoons. It answers some questions like:

  1. Who controls the vehicles and who controls the infantry on the dismount?

  2. What's the chain of command when they're separate?

  3. Are there dedicated leaders for each task?

  4. Do the vehicles or the infantry implicitly take priority? (by which the most senior leader controls)

Among these 6 examples, we see 4 distinct approaches to the problem.
