Express Oneself in Writing

Learning to think as a naval officer requires expressing oneself in writing. Naval officers must be able to find the language in which to explain their thinking. Research and writing are inextricably linked and are at the center of the historical enterprise. Both aspects of the craft can be fun, as well as rewarding.  Give it a try.  You'll be better for it.

Think more; write less. Do us all a favor.

"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena..."

This junior officer appreciates your daily thoughts. Please keep them coming.
