You're wrong, good buddy.  I looked up the doctrine.


An interesting thing happened since then in the doctrine world.  The site
featured by Google on this subject, originally at: 

http://www.geocities.com/Pentagon/6453/

was moved to this address, and effectively shut down:

http://www.urbanoperations.com/


�� "The Urban Operations Journal will be down until late February 2004 while
the site undergoes a reorganization."


Of course, this had nothing to do with the questions I raised.  That goes
without saying.  Uh-huh.
