terrain—I am going to be there waiting for them.<br />

If I think the enemy is going to flank me—too<br />

late—I’m already flanking them.<br />

I don’t view aggression as an outward attitude.<br />

I view aggression as an internal character trait.<br />

A fire in your mind that says: I am going to win.<br />

I am going to battle and I am going to fight and I<br />

am going to use every tool I have to crush my<br />

enemy.<br />

And that tool might be fists, but it might be<br />

guile.<br />

It might be a frontal attack, but it might be a<br />

flanking maneuver.<br />

It might be an undeniable display of force—but it<br />

also might be a subtle political maneuver.<br />

And that is what aggression is to me: The unstoppable<br />

fighting spirit. The drive. The burning desire to<br />

achieve mission success using every possible tool,<br />

asset, and strategy and tactic to bring about<br />

victory.<br />

IT IS THE WILL. TO. WIN.<br />

And if that kind of internal, relentless aggression<br />

is your DEFAULT MODE—<br />

YOU WILL WIN.
