Don't act like a Japanese General - Part 1

I worked with a Sailor who had been there {part time a radio operator - full-time machine gunner) on a PBY Patrol Bomber. He was part of the Navy attacks on the Japanese fleet and other forces in 1942. He told me a great deal about what happened and how to not act like a Japanese General
** {Meaning how not follow the command structure used in the Nipponese forces - which did not allow thinking, they could only respond to orders from HQ - even when this meant that great sacrifices came down on their forces - yet they could not reconsider or think, or improvise on their own - to their demise}.
Americans were free to think and change and take advantage of whatever to win or escape defeat! This was one of the reasons US forces won so many battles. Evil dictatorial dominating governments (even today) attempt to control everything down to thinking!
Will post some of the stories US Navy Radioman Curtis Martin told me on my blogs - it shows how free-thinking wins out over controlled thinking!
