There's a method to the madness, you know, if you want, because these functions are, you need these functions. And it's not to say that every time we go anywhere, we are truly completely isolated from all support assets. That will very rarely be the case in today's world, but it's built to be able to do that. And that comes with a lot of additional work and effort.

But that's also kind of why we exist to be able to operate that way. Yeah, I did not realize that. It's impressive.

Yeah, so the tactical term for objective secure is something that you would reach that point of objective secure if you looked at, say, an urban operation, urban military operation. We were going to, say, take down a compound. It's divided up into different sectors, and you've got your assault team and your overwatch and your cordon, isolation containment. You've got all these things set up.

as you're moving through and you're clearing you're clearing different sectors so sector alpha clear or sexual section one two three clear whatever eventually you get to a point of objective secure so this is our objective it's this compound we've now cleared the whole thing we've back cleared it we've consolidated anyone that we have under our control we've done all the searches we need to do we are now at a point of objective secure which gives everyone

on that operation a little bit of an opportunity to kind of take a breath and take a minute. And we can kind of zoom out and reassess what's going to go on, what needs to happen next, priorities of work, comms, are we moving, exfil, whatever happens after. So there's a pause point that happens once you reach objective secure in a tactical environment. The mission is not over.

You are on the objective still physically. At a minimum, you need to get back to your camp or onto the next objective or whatever, but it's a pause point. Mission's not over, but it's a good place to be. It's a warm, comfortable place to be, regardless of how chaotic or kinetic it was, to earn your way, and I use that term on purpose, to earn your way to objective secure. It's a good feeling.

Man, we made it. This is a great point in time. Awesome. Objective secure in the context of the book is really used almost the same way. Whereas here's where I am today. Here's my mission. Here's my desired mission and state. The macro goal, the big picture, the holy shit, like this is actually scaring me a little bit. Vision of what I want to do.
