Situation
Terrain, timing, political pressure, and the objective—established before anyone starts moving.
Target package / military history
Famous battles, improbable raids, and catastrophic blunders reduced to the situation, the decision, and the failure point—by an intel analyst.
01 / Sources first
The operational record comes before the legend. Claims are separated from hindsight.
02 / Clear judgment
Every briefing identifies the decision point—not just who won and who lost.
03 / Honest shop
Books, shirts, and patches support the work without pretending a new brand has old reviews.
Inside the dossier

Who was where, what each side knew, and which assumptions shaped the plan.
The moment the mission turned. You get the available intelligence, then answer: what would you have done?
What failed, what worked despite the odds, and which lesson survives contact with the evidence.
